Default RE: Zlin EP - What is the CG?

I had the same problem trying to get the servo wires throught he wing. Ultimately, it was a fairly easy fix to cut an access opening, run the wires and then glue back in position. While an easy fix, it is a really stupid design flaw. In addition, thy must know of it by now and coul quite easily give a headsup to buyers that they will encounter the problem and how to fix it. I spent an unreasonable amount of time trying to get teh wires through until I realized it was their error.

I was able to open the area immediately forward of the access hole, an area that stays hidden when the wing is installed.

I have a fleet which includes a number of Nitro Planes - I am learning there are no perfect manufacturers - every model presents it own challenges.

While I am on my soap box, the motor mount so seriously restrcits the size of the motor (no more than 28 or 29 mm diameter) that it is difficult to power it properly so that I can take advantage of its aerobatic potential.
