G'day Crew,

Just finished building my ARF kit. Took 3 days in total. All in all a very very nice kit, used 99% of the supplied hardware. Hardware I replaced included the engine mount bolts (Hex head) and so far 1 clevis (metal). The instructions are excellent!

I buggered up the rudder position, I placed the vertical fin too far forward by about 3mm and the 5 min epoxy had dried before I realised. Unfortunately this left about a 2mm gap between the fin and rudder, which I sealed with tape at this stage, to prevent flutter.

This was the only flaw, damn, and I am kicking myself for not being more careful.

Now to my problem. To balance I need to know the distance back from the leading edge, the manual states:

2-15/16" to 3 1/2"

Can someone PLEASE convert the measurements to millimetres.

SIG has a customer for life, in fact I am awaiting a Sig Rascal 40 kit to come in from the States via shipping container.[&o]
