Default Lanier stick

I just put together a Lanier™ Extreme Stick ,,is sort of a cool plane....just about done (was an arf) I have a MVVS .45 I stuck on it.. I was all happy on the assembly for the most part. . was not to fond of the rudder and elevator control rods..(wood sticks with wires on the ends!) I could of swapped them out but ...I left them....has a split elevator..so I was undecided what to change that one to.(if I did change it)..I have the servo tray and battery as far back in fuse as I can.. and the motor on mount as far back as I can,... and if I don’t change anything...I am going to have to add 3+ oz`s of lead to the rear..(does not make me happy)..... whole plane seems light at this point(have not weighed it yet). but after the whole tackle box full of lead I am going to have to add.... it may not end up that way.
I guess I could move elevator servo/servos to rear (make it a 2 servo elevator set up).. any ways here is a few snaps... not bad for a $100.00 dollar ARF.

Default RE: Lanier stick

I think you've answered your own question... Two standard servos forward of the stab will just about equal 3 oz on the tail... I'd move the elevator servos to the rear of the fuse...
