Hello,

Getting ready to make my 1st flight with a 3M Comp ARF Extra 260. Plane built with DA-150, MTW 110 cannisters, and 28.5 x 12 Mejelik. The recommended (manual) C/G balance on the plane is 120mm in from the leading edge on the wing tips. I've read other threads that indicate the 120mm point may be tail heavy.

Hope a few others flying this plane will chime in regarding the C/G measurement and the range of balance from nose to tail heavy ????

Thanks - Jaketab
