Default Global Kwik-Fly Balancing

Hi Gang,

Just putting the finishing touches on this low-wing trike ARF. Problem is I the CG is so delicate I can't figure out if its tail or nose heavy. If I tip it slightly to the rear, the tail drops; slightly to the nose and the nose drops. I set the balance right at the mid point of the CG range 4 1/4" behind the leading edge.

Never had a plane this difficult to find the CG, or for that matter balance.

Anyone else build this ARF and have a similar problem?

Any Ideas?
