Thanks for the help guys. I think I'll try it tomorrow.

Has anyone else been seeing the package deals at Target where you get a AH RC Plane (Various Sorts) and a free E-Charger plane as well? Only $29.99.

I got a red AA Channel B. Tried to fly it today, but there are some serious winds. Many long walks to go fetch the plane. I had to ask the park grounds keeper for a ladder to get my girlfriend's channel C from the roof of the park gym. I tried taping a penny to the bottom of the nose to fight the wind, but it didn't help that much. Maybe better luck tomorrow.

I'm still hesitant to bend the tail rod. if I bend the tail rod, is it still necessary to add weight to the nose? After I remove the bottom wings, hopefully bending the tail rod will be all I have to do. I'm not very comfortable with splitting my plane open and moving the lipo forward. Really, I'm trying to improve agility without increasing speed.

Also, which is a better approach in bending the tail; just plain heating it up and bending it down 1/4 inch or bending it into a "Z" shape like I saw someone else here do? Any help is appreciated.
