plane balance
prints should show the balance point,with finished plane minus fuel,on each wing next to plane using finger tips,or whatever,lift plane,if low wing plane turn upside down,if plane stays level, hotdog,if not move battery,as last resort add weight,then lift plane by prop or spinner and stabilizer if wings stay level,then another hotdog,if not try moving battery as last resort add weight to light wing,lots of different ways but this is simple and works.
