Be carefull with the plane being excessively nose heavy with rudders servos placed up in fuse. We have all battled nose heaviness with this plane, even with servos placed in rear of fuse. Most people place servos in rear of fuse AND make a hatch and attach batteries in rear of fuse as well..

I was careful with it. Plane is already flying. I have CG at exact position as Bill told me, without any additional balancing the tail. I just took batteries to the tail section. I am representing my building, photos of flying my monster will arrive later.

Flying upside down requires almost nothing correction on elevator. The best flying machine I have ever seen!!!!!!! Congratulations Bill for constructing such pussycat!!!

So you don't know why you don't have flames on your cowl? I asked you in the beginning of this thread.

Oh sorry! I don´t know exactly. The prototype was with flames, the first series of this planes were without flames I think. We should ask Bill. I think now it is available with flames, I have seen on this forum one builder from Belgium (look the link). Look also avatar of DKjens upper. Difference is obvious.

This is my way of transport.... for time being.

I am thinking about a trailer. It is too much work with transport.
