Wade, I have the Stinger 60 ARF and I installed all components for the most part as per instructions. The only difference was installing the battery about 3 inches behind the servo tray and adding about 6.5 ounces in the tail section behind the battery. That was my biggest problem. I have a Super Tiger 90 with a pitts muffler. CG is at 4 3/8" from the leading edge. She flys nice....real nice. Good luck in whatever you decide.

Hi Quazar,

It's that 6.5 ounces that I'm trying to avoid by pushing the servos back as far as possible. That's a whole lot of dead weight.

Thanks,

PS: What engine/muffler did you use? I'm going to use the YS91AC and a Slimline pitts muffler, and I'm curious how that compares to the engine you used to get that balance.
