      Cool! Like that a lot.
      Haven't flown a plane for a while now, but I did last weekend & really enjoyed it.
      I knew there's a reason why I smile when I fly a heli FFFF!

        Todays flight was far too quick.... it was very nose heavy, but I dont know the correct CoG point for it, so have to work it out by trial and error.

        Its way better to be too far forward than too far back... but the further forward you go, the quicker the landings get...

          Hee hee hee - nose heavy flies badly, tail heavy flies once!
          One third of the root chord is a good starting point. Roughly on the spar.

            Im just not quite sure where that would be though... its a swept wing, and its a foam/balsa hybrid without a traditional spar by the looks of things...
