hi i built a super decathlon it is very tail heavy are these planes just that way . I put a saito 150 in it thinking that was enough weight but i guess not it looks like it will need 1 pound of weight or more thanks.

You didn't say which design/kit. I expect it matters. I built a Dynaflight SD and it was tail heavy. Had to add significant nose weight even though I was running a Quadra 42 with mag ignition. Still flew well all was said and done.
