You’re probably not going to get much response on this. The Tequila's were an early ARF that got a bad rap and deserved or not, many people despise them. I've had two .25 Tequila's, probably the only person around that can say that, one is enough for most. I had a very light Norvel .25 on my first and a OS .32sx with a very light Mac's pipe on my second. Neither of which did I have to add nose weight! I was also using a very small NiCad pack under the tank. I don't have any instructions left but I'm sure I used what was called for on the plans. You should be measuring and balancing it at the wing root, not the tips. Right? I don't know what else to say other than I had NO issue with mine being tail heavy.

This plane is a handful to fly, I think that's why I liked it. Go easy on the throws, especially the elevator. Too much up and it will snap roll even at high speeds. It glides like a lawn dart and you have to keep the speed up on landing. Wheel landings are obviously preferred. Ground handling is okay but I wouldn't recommend it as a first taildragger. Hope this helps.

After reviewing my old RCU Tequila posts I'm kinda' gettin' the urge to find another one. Click below...
