That is not the usual reaction...
Put a bigger engine on it.
My rx battery is tie-wrapped as far under the servo tray as I could get it and i added a 2 oz. fishing weight to the fwd atttach screw on the rudder servo. I just eye-balled the cg, but mine snaps and rolls really quick. As I was told, it is not a 3d airplane but is a very capable sport flier.

Pulled off the tail wheel, and moved the battory back another inch or two. Now it's a fun plane to fly. It climbs out of knife-edge flight, unlimited vert., and will now snap as fast or just a little faster then my PTS. Yet it is still very stable at lower speeds.

Now i have to rebuild one wing and just about rebuild the front of the fuse.
