Default RE: SM MIG-29 Maiden

Michel,
thanks for the great post and the video. I am just about finished with mine and had a few questions:
- The aluminum actuating arm for the right side elevator hits the side of my pipe. the pipe also touches the bottom of the fusealge. A freind had to raise his engine by 3/8' and positioned pipe behind engine former to fix this issue. Did you have the same problem, how did you deal with that?
- I decided to plumb my tanks in series, (left to right to header to UAT) since the height difference between two main tanks and the header tank may cause uneven suction and higher chance of air bubbles. any thoughts?
- do you know what is the final weight?
- I didnt seem to need to put any weigth (batteries) in the nose cone to balance. Looks like batteries need to go near the header tank to balance. how did yours balance?
- any other tricks you used or install pictures would be appreciated.
thanks
Jason
