Default RE: Modified engine position.
ORIGINAL: w8ye

A plane must be balanced front to rear about a 25% to 35% of the overall wig width in order to fly correctly.

If the tail is heavy they are almost impossible to control. If they are very nose heavy they are hard to keep the nose up on landing

I agree, but he hasn't changed anything but the position of the motor, ie, upright to inverted. How would this change the balance ?
