Did your Magic need any engine thrust added? OS46fx. If so. How many washers did you use and where? Thanks

Default uh...

Nope, but if you are gonna add it just put a couple thin washers (or 1 thick one ) behind the mount where it goes onto the fuse-

I have a Magic with an OS-50FSR Heli motor and it flies great!

Ditto to what Razor said. I have an OS 46FX on mine. If I remember right, it already had some offset built in.

fair enough. I noticed that when i tried to enter or pull out vertically from a hover the plane wanted to pull left. The left wing drops. Maybe it is a balancing issue.

I had to add right and down thrust on mine. Four small washers left top, three left bottom.

No right thrust added to mine.
it torque rolls just fine. It doesn't pull any more to the left than to the right. It gets better the closer to tail heavy you get .

I am balanced close to recommended CG. Maybe more tail weight? It doesnt flat spin well. Where is everybody balancing theirs?
