Finally pulled the trigger on the red version. Ran it with a 2500 Admiral shoved all the way forward, and had to add 3ozs of lead to the nose. Still seems a bit tail heavy but flys alright. Came out of the box with one aileron and one elevator broke off. Replaced with nylon hinges. The prop was way out of balance but an easy fix. Motor still makes quite a bit of noise. I was really hoping for a great flyer as everyone seems to have but I seemed to have gotten a heavy dog turd. Im going to give it a few more flights, possibly change out the prop and go with a larger battery.1 Photo

Capt. America, I fly my WACOs using Admiral 3000 four cell and still had to add some weight to the nose. I have found most bipes tend to be tail heavy. Once you get the CG sorted out, it is a sweet flying model. You may also want to try some other props. A lot of folks, me included, have gone to a 13X6, though you will want to keep an eye on the factory ESC.

Anyone have a measurement of how much right-deflection should be on the prop? Seems when it nosed in, it compressed the right side of the motor mount enough that the motor contacted and cracked the plastic engine façade, and was still far enough over that, if I put a new façade on, it would still contact it. The motor mount still feels solid, so I can shim the prop back a bit more to how it should be.
I might need to check the up/down on the thrust line before I fly it again as well.

Did alittle work on my red version. Swapped out the landing lights so they are now white instead of red and installed a red becon on the bottom
. Stripped all the old decals off and repainted the fuse. Callie hooked me up with the proper decals and added a pilot. Now I just need a decent day...4 Photos
