Default HELP..VMAR AT-6 Texan

Ive jsut finished putting my AT-6 together, but I have problems with the balance. Dont know where the balance point should be on that plane. There was no note on that in the manual. Now I have it 35cm from the prop and there is about 83cm to the end of the rudder. Ive heard about the AT-6 from kyosho that on that plane it should be 25cm from the prop bult. But that plane was not made of balsa and not sure that it was the same size....

Leave it to VMAR to not include the CG point.......
Try calling Richmond RC (www.richmondrc.com) Hopefully they can tell you.

I had one of those. I believe the balance point I used was the spar. Also the control throws in the manual are way too much. Cut them in half for the test flight or use your dual rates. Good luck!!
