I purchased a used airplane at a swap meet. Its a beaver kit.63.5"wingspan, 7-5/8" chord. 12" ail and 14-3/4flap on each wing half. fuse is 40.5"long, cowl 5.5" dia, 2 side vents built into nose behind cowl,fuse 5.3/8" wide.has 19" wing struts. 4 doors that open with glass windows. a 1.25" round window on each side. i'M guessing 40-50 size engine.Ail are bell cranked to servo in center of wing. Flap servo is also in center of wing. Can anybody give me info on planes manufacture and cg. person I bought from couldn't give me any details. Plane looks like it came from a good manuf. Wing has 3 bolt secure to top of plane. servos mounted forward of front doors. with 4 doors that swing open its a pleasiure to work on. steerable rear wheel bellcranked with rudder. Thanks Have a Happy Thanksgiving to all.

The plane indeed appears to be of the .46 category

Balance the plane at the point on the wing where the sheeting stops and the Monokote or Oracover begins

I agree with wy8e, I would balance at the main spar and make it a bit nose heavy till you fly it around and see how it handles. Nose heavy will fly, tail heavy .......
