Balancing a Hawk Pro

[Dave M]

Just changed a bunch of things around...new regulated power supply.etc. The bird is now a little nose heavy. If I hold it on its side by the blade grips, It takes 3/4 oz. on the vertical tail fin to make it balance. Is this enough weight to consider messing with ??
Just getting ready to try and go inverted with it,and don't want any surprises.:YeaBaby:
I tried to keep it balanced when I was locating equipment, but for some reason it just would not do it.:hug:

For good 3D (same trim inverted as right side up), one should strive to have the cg as close as possible to being on the mainshaft.

Also one should mix out any collective to elevator and/or aileron interactions in climbs, both right side up and inverted.

Check out the swash mixing and phasing threads in the Century forum on RR. Some good info there.
