Balance 86 Yak
Hi Guys have setup and installation as manual except a carbon spinner not alloy and 2500nimh pack in motor box for ignition. Plane is tail heavy when balancing. So moved 4300durallite side of motor box and have added a combined total of 160grams of stick on weights to front top and bottom of motor box, balances at 190 fine. This seems like a lot of weight and wondering if anyone else fitting carbon spinner had the same. I imagine an alloy spinner would weigh a lot also. Balanced on an EZ Balancer but the balancer seems exceptionally good, same when i balanced on fingers just easier with balancer.
A tru turn 4"spinner weighs 5.8oz which is 168 grams, so with both batteries in the motor box and the spinner id of thought i should be slightly nose heavy.
Any feedback very welcome as i want to maiden this week.
