Hi Guys,

I have had one of the above sitting around the shop for 3-4 years. Got it from Chief Aircraft for ~$200 when H9 closed them out. Just got around to putting it together with G26 magneto engine. I'm up to the point of locating the receiver and dual batteries - 1200 mA, 6V NIMH - with a switch for each.

For those of you who've built this model: is it critical where I locate the batts and Rx, considering getting it balanced without adding ballast, or is the thing too big to care about those small components? Or, to put it another way, how'd you rig yours?

Many thanks,

CR
