ORIGINAL: zener3

Thats where I got mine just last week. Shipped pretty fast too.

Got it together last night, added a weighted spinner nut and lots of weight to the firewall to get it to CG at 68 - 69 mm. I put the os .46 with a pitts muffler in it with an 11X5 prop. Hope this is enough engine to get the thing in the air.

Anyone else running the .46 in this same plane? I'm headed to the field tomorrow to see for myself. Thanks for all the good info here in this forum.
Zener,

What type of weight did you use on the firewall? Was it the self adhesive lead strips that you get at the LHS. Let me know.
