Balancing...
For all practical purposes my Four Star 40 is done. Just have to replace some engine parts and tune it up. Now it will sit for 2 months until flying season. (It's only about 10 - 15 degrees here today.) [>:]
It balances about 1 inch ahead of the center of the main spar. If I put 4 ounces of weight way back against my Sullivan tailwheel bracket it balances out fine. A guy at my LHS said he likes them to be a little nose heavy. I wonder if this is too much or should I see how it flies and adjust as necessary?
By the way, I am balancing it upside down. I assume that is the correct way for a low-wing airplane.
