Default RE: GP Super Stearman

Have a friend put a finger the right distance behind one end of the top wing tip, and do the same yourself on the other side's wing tip. Just raise it off the ground enough to tell which end is heavier and balance accordingly until it's level.

How did you guys balance your GP Super Stearmans? I have a GP machine balancer and it seems the cabaines get in the way not the mention I guess I have to put the balancer on a wide board or something since the height of the plane is higher than the balance machine itself. I can get this to work alright, I was just wondering if there is an easier or better way to balance this bird?
