Why is my lepton tail heavy? do i need a heavier battery? Do i need to put the battery in the front more? I find it that in a hover i need a few clicks of forward cyclic to keep it steady. I tried the swash leveling tool and i can see that the swash is tilted forward a bit. Is anyone having the same problem?

Mine was a bit nose heavy with a 5s 3700 pack.

What equipment do you have on yours?

Just don't push the battery pack all the way to the back of the battery area
That will enable you to balance it nicely

I have 6 flights on mine. I used the swash tool . Mine flew backward and to the right at first hover. So I pushed the battery foward and mounted the bec and speed controlled diffrently (flightpower 4850 4 c). Then when I flew it,it was flying foward too much. Each flight I would push the battery farther and further back...
Now the battery is 1/2" from all the way back and the swash is now tipped foward one turn from level on the link. It flys hands off and works great :thumbup:

This puppy is much faster handling and faster flying than my mini Titan, I'm even running 65% dual rate so my beginner handling skills can fly it!
