Default RE: Balsa USA Phaeton ll kit

Hello Folks.

I bought a Phaeton II 45 from a buddy, fixed it up, and now I'm ready to try for a
maiden flight tommorrow. Hopefully someone has one of these birds and can inform
me of the proper CG location. I didn't get the instructions, unfortunately.

Right now, I'm basing the CG on a how-to article in 'Model Airplane News' about biplanes
in general. I would love to get the story from the manual, though, if anyone can remember.

Need to know:
- CG location
- Control surface throws.

Thanks.
