New Radio's That Have Crow Capability??

The JR X347 and XP8103 have set-ups for butterfly, or crow configuration. I would imagine the 783 and 388 do as well.

Tailheavy - what to do

If all of the radio gear is mounted as far forward as possible, then there's really not too much more you CAN do but add weight at the mount.

Reversing JR servo

What transmitter are you using? It's possible , with some transmitters, to mix another channel with the elevator for a dual setup. That way you can reverse the second servo.
