Balance point on the Typhoon is 6.75" from the leading edge at the wing root - right on the wing joiner tube.

Here's a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMlLb16_PRc

Here's a pic: http://rides.webshots.com/photo/1331...60411591BuhbXY

Both of those links are to the Typhoon 2+2. If I remember correctly, the original Typhoon was at the end of the ballistic period and was designed for a piped 61. I saw a few w/ YS 120s in the early 90s. Didn't PAC used to sell the kit?

I've got a Typhoon 2+2 I'm seriously considering selling, mind if I ask what market price range they are selling for? Mine is in VERY good condition, minus YS 140 engine & pipe.
