| SteveM | 24-Feb-08 15:51 | | I had to put some significant weight in the nose of my BF-109 to get it to balance where the plans said to (more than an ounce I think). But after flying at the park yesterday I don't wonder if the BF-109 would have flown had I tried a smaller amount of weight first then adding as needed. |

| supercub | 24-Feb-08 22:21 | | I also built a series 400 piper cub, ( first scale model.) and it has + - one ounce in the nose, and I would suggest to get a 6" peck polymers prop, a strip of 3 1/16" tan sport or super sport rubber, and if you can, remove the nose, and put the clay in the VERY tip of the nose, while slipping the nose on and off while balancing, and I suggest the next model you build, to lighten as much as you can behind the C. G. ( see my hellcat I am building.) And also, don't be discouraged if it doesn't fly well, because the cub I built will only fly down a 15* hill, but your model looks like it is built very nice, and I hope it flys well- good flying! :) |

| sweetwillie | 25-Feb-08 11:46 | | "Sir John?" Poppy, now he will be unsufferable. But, unfortunately, I agree with you. |
