Can anyone tell me how you balance one of the goldberg mig 27 that were used as drones.
I have added landing gear and nose gear and want to balance before flight.
Thanks

I've read in other posts that the CG is at the leading edge of the wing tips and can be set to 1 inch behind that. I've not build one myself--just got mine today. I'd appreciate any info you have on putting the thing together.

Thanks for the info.
One thing everyone says to do is epoxy in the tail, which I did not do, you cant get back in there for any reason if you need to.
I did paint mine with latex paint (camo) which came out looking good and the glow fuel did little or nothing when it came in contact with it.
The throttle cable that came installed has a little slack that is irritating and may have to be changed.
Are you adding landing gear or belly landing?
Please e-mail if I can help with anything specific.
Thanks Johnny

Its been a long time since i have built one of those, however I do recall cutting off about 6 inches of the nose and glueing a 1/4 inch firewall in place to mount the engine and nosewheel to. We also added rudders and main gear.
