I bought one new from a guy at our field, and he did not have the manual. I need help setting it up, I am going to use a brison 2.4 for power. I am planning on putting the elevator servos in the tail and use a pull-pull setup on the rudder. Where is the best place to set the cg on it. Any tips or suggestion would be appreciated.

Initially, I'd suggesst putting the CG 1/2" forward of the wing tube. Move it back only gradually. This plane is very CG sensitive (elevator authority here is huge). You'll need to put your rudder servo as far forward as possible----as well as your Rx and ingition batteries. This plane tends to be tail heavy---so you'll probably have to move everything as far forward as possible----and might still have to add some noseweight.

Foley.....Do the search, as that should net you the most info on that plane this site has to offer. For hardware though, Nelson-formerly known as RocketCity carries the best for most planes in that size range.
A 2.4 though will leave it wanting vertical...don't get me wrong here, that plane should fly every IMAC manuever in the book with a 2.4...it will strain though going up. My friend has one and it's a pretty heavy bird...it wieghs near 3pounds more then my Midwest Extra. He's powered though with G62 for that reason..as he saw it heavy going into it. Don't know if thats your case..might be a good idea to check it out though. Good luck with your plane.
