Default RE: Engine too far to the left?

hitmanhit,

How does the plane balance out? Looking at the pics, I would say you're good to go, providing everything else checks out. Check your CG (center of gravity) according to the plans... check your control surfaces throws... get with an instructor, if using a field and/or club, and do a range check to ensure all is well with the radio equipment... fire it up and check the throttle transitioning, typically with the elevator behind your ankles, and let her fly!! True characteristics can only be found in flight.

Keep your head up on a swivel
