ORIGINAL:

OK, maiden flight completed and it's still in one piece.
I have the advanced version with a P-80SE and this is what I noticed from the first flight:
- too heavy at 25.0
- CG at 148 is way too nose heavy (for me)
- all control throws set to recommended and so far, fine

Seems most who posted weights are 3-4 pounds lighter, not sure why mine came out that heavy.
I'm working on moving the batteries back now and will shoot for a 155-158 CG.

Congratulations on the Maiden Craig! I think it is a fantastic flying jet.

Now I presume you are talking about a FE F16? Is it the advanced version or Plus? COGat 140mm IMO is just way to nose heavy. I am around the 160mm mark and very happy with this set up!

Cheers,

Mav
