Default How often does this happen?

We'll I got the midstar done up today. Threw it on the balancer and it was bang on! Not sure how often that happens as this is my second plane. On my Kadet Senior I had to throw 4oz under the fuel tank because of mods. I'm no golfer but I'll call it a hole-in-one.

Hello; Congradulations, that has happened to me on three occasoions that I can remember, I was pleased and surprised. I think it was on the Mid-star 40 for me too.

I've had two in a row now. Both are Great Planes Performance series. Both the Cap232 and the Ultimate. I used all the stock stuff on both and the recommended engines and put everything in the recomennded spots and hit the CG right on.

My Aeroworks 50cc Yak also was like this using all the recomended stuff in the recomended spots

It's not all that unheard of but it does not happen a lot, at least to me since I tend to go overkill of a few things like engines/servos/control rods and control horns. I'm getting better at it since I have learned to weight everything, research those weights beofre I buy and plan it out based on what the manual says. I also download and read over the manuals for the planes I buy long before I buy them
