David Pearce 4 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I've just put the Maxford USA Greensleeves together, at long last. I've made no alterations to it but I can't get the c of g anywhere near the suggested point. Even after calculating the c of g myself, which pushed it back 8mm, I need 120g of lead in the nose! The MkII introduced a new composit fuselage (heavier?) but otherwise it's very similar to the JP version. With motor, prop, receiver, esc and servos the fuselage weights 528g I can't imagine how it could fly unless I drill holes in the rear end or build a balsa replacement fuselage! Anyone else bought one and had similar problems? Edited By David Pearce 4 on 11/06/2015 19:58:18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Pearce 4 Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 I've just taken out the motor and put in one 60g heavier which has halved the problem but I'd still be interested in anyone else's experience. Or am I the only person to buy one of these?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
