Default CESSNA 182 -- Request input
Hello fellow flyers,

I purchased the Cessna 182 Skylane 60 (with a 63" wing span) from eBay. I have not recieved it yet. It's 90% built and comes installed with:

Magnum .61 2-stroke motor
Five (5) GWS S30TXF Hi-Torque Servos

I have also purchased the Futaba 6EXAS 6-Channel FM radio.

The eBay ad said that the buyer would have to finish up the final balancing and trim on the plane. This would also involve balancing the prop as well, correct? Is there any web site or information you all could give me in order to finish this plane? I know how to do weight and balance on a REAL Cessna 172 but I doubt it's comparable. LOL!

Any input would be great! I'm sure I'll be back for more questions when the bird arrives.
