I have been using a 6000mah battery slid as far forward as possible with a small amount of weight added in the nose. The maiden flight was a bit tail heavy, but after about 15 clicks of down elevator it flew great. With this model always keep up some speed when turning on final. Landing is nice with about 75% to 100% flaps and a little power untill you reach the runway then cut power. I did re-enforce the nose with 5mm carbonfiber rods to prevent the nose from breaking off. Check out you tube video's on how to do the modification. Nice jet when flying . Very realistic looking paint sceme.

This plane personifies the old saying “Speed is life”. It is a hot plane (can do over 100mph). Caution #2: It is a high-fidelity copy of a 1940s jet and it comes with all of the vices of the real plane. This includes being prone to tip stalls so do not get to slow with high AOA and control the wing rock. Do not try to rotate too soon. Caution #3: Critical 10mm wide CG (100-110mm aft of wing root leading edge). This is well presented in manual so no excuses (BTW, I was about less than an inch off and disaster resulted. See video link). Caution #4: The nose section/gear is prone to get knocked off if it suddenly stops, say for instance you land it in tall grass. Harden it with carbon fiber rods to strengthen the nose section (and tail). Caution #5: The camo paint scheme is surprisingly effective so be alert to your sky and background conditions. I colored my wingtips with high visibility markings and it paid off (white on top, red /yellow on bottom. **And now for the she Sugar This may be the best/nicest EDF out there. Good quality everything and very scale. Great handling once trimmed out. Solid, fast and predictable. If you get it right and can handle this bad-boy you will leave the filed with and ear-to-ear grin. Motion RC is great. I have never seen such customer service in RCs before. ***Additional note. Motion RC seems to be running out of parts for this plane and I fear it may have been discontinued. I personally bought a bunch of new stuff but there do not seem to be any replacement engine nacelles in the USA. The plane may have been discontinued. I guess I will have to buy another one. ****Recommendations: Triple check you CG. It will try to fly before the wingtips are ready so get solid speed prior to rotation or will try to roll which leads to wing rock and tip stalling. It needs a few minor clean-ups before flight which are covered in countless videos. If you want to see mine roll and crater on its maiden (AFT CG) go to my YouTube channel: maxsmodels channel or click links below. I made a few other videos to help with his model.

It is so slight that I think it will have no effect on the performance. It is mainly at the trailing edge around the flaps and a very small amount at the wing tips.
