Default RE: How to balance a low wing plane?


ORIGINAL: Radcom

If the wing is in the middle of the fuse ,like a SHRIKE 10.
Do you balance on the top or bottom of the wing ??
In this case you balance so the majority of the weight is hanging below the wing. In the case of the Shrike you have the engine and vertical fins that extend up and place weight above the wing, so you would turn it over and balance it upside down.
