Are you just curious or do you have a particular plane that needs balancing? If you have a plane the best safest way is to see if anyone here has the same plane and can refer to the destructions to be sure. We will need more info to come up with a conclusion. This can be a very in depth discussion depending on how the plane is configured. There is a lot more experience on this forum than what I can offer so if you can get some more info we will be more able to help you.

I did mean instructions, I just started calling them destructions a long time ago and now I do it without even knowing it.

First problem is the .45, you will never get it off the ground with that power......needs a .91 minimum, moki 1.8 would be even better.....

no, that was the 3ft wing span kangaroo jet not the big one as what you think.
I just would like to fine out the CG of that plane, or is it better to fly head heavy, or tail heavy ?
