Default RE: Defiant Model 74 Flight problems

Wil,

I have to ask for clarification did it really take 29 oz to balance? That's an extra 1.8 pounds of weight if my calculations are correct! What is your A/C final weight? It should be around 8~9 lbs. By the way it took 18 oz. to balance mine (which is an extra 1.1 lbs.). for the plans CG. I am not sure I need any weight to balance to the "new" CG. I think I may be able to balance to the new CG by just moving the battery position in the fuse. I should have a flight in the next week or two. If I have success I'll let you know...If you have success let me know! I just want to let you know that I think to find the correct CG on this model may be through trial and error. So far I have two errors! HA HA
