Default RE: adding weight


ORIGINAL: plane fun

Hi all,

I just maidened a skyraider mach 1 last weekend. Running a os 40 la it needed 3 ounces of lead in the nose. Yes I have the battery and the reciever behind the fuel tank. Even with the additional weight it flew well. As for your misalignment, I would loosen the bolts holding the fin and try to adjust it. Good luck.

G'day Mate,
If you read my post again, I said, the battery in the second Mk1 "was behind the servos" not behind the fuel tank, that is about 3" difference, so you could have saved that weight.
