Default RE: U-Can-Do 3d 46?

I am still curious as to why this plane continues to finish out so tail heavy. I have had mine now for a couple of weeks just haven't had time to build it yet. Planning on a ys63 and the recomended servos. My concern is that after reading the previous posts is that I'm going to have to add a uncalled for amount of dead weight to just balance this machine. I'm not one for adding lead to a plane but going to a larger engine with the addition of more $$$$$$ is not a option either.

Another concern is weight. It seems the plane is finishing out on the average(in this thread) between 6.25 to almost 7 pounds. Thats too much for this plane isn't it?

These are just some observations and I was curious. I hope to build mine up next week and see the #'s for myself. If it flys like all of you say I'm sure I wont be dissappointed.

Later, Ken
