...believe it or not I built maybe 15 years ago and have never flown. Time to correct this gross oversight! :grin:
It looks like I did a nice neat job of putting it together but the instructions are long ago gone and I'm wondering how to trim it in. There's a tiny amount of lead shot glued in right at the tip of the nose - I assume that's from the stock kit instructions. No other obvious attempts to balance/trim are visible.
Any suggestions on...
A) How to glide test/trim this beast before the first powered flight, and
B) Motor recommendations (D12-3? Don't remember)
...Will be most welcome! Hopefully I'll get this up in the air yet this summer and end its' long hibernation!
Thanks all,
