Thanks. It definitely makes a difference. No modifications on the plane, out of the box, it balances near the wing tips and is nose heavy at the fuse.

A) You're not using the same point at both locations
or
B) Something's different on that airplane from every stik I've ever seen.

The only way that is possible is if you have a forward swept wing. As stated by gboulton above, that would make it a very odd Big Stik .60.

Great Planes Big Stik 60. It says between 3-3/4 to 4-1/2 inches.
