RE: adjust the CG or trim
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_2524947/tm.htm Over 80 pages of info on this plane, I think every one is starting at 127mm but go thru the forums to verify. The manual that comes with the plane says 88mm which is wrong but they may have updated the manual since then.

RE: adjust the CG or trim
Thanks everyone for your replies. Landeck, I’m balancing the plane upside down with the CG machine and I can get it to balance slightly nose heavy, but if the nose is one degree lower or if the tail is one degree lower ether end will drop like I’m 20 degrees from the point where I can balance the plane. I was making a huge mistake by assuming that a balance plane on the ground is almost a balance plane in the sky – lesson learned after reading everyone’s helpful replies. I also was wondering if this was due to having a full tank of fuel, but even when I was low on fuel the plane will still have the same flight characteristics. My first plane was a NexStar and second was a Pulse 60, both the ARFs were easy planes to balance and flew like they were balanced planes with very little trim needed when they were in the air. But this Fliton extra 330 is my first mid/symmetrical wing and my first plane that is a hybrid kit / ARF. After ready everyone replies I’m going to have one of the experience guys at my field perform some dives and have the plane tell us wear to adjust the CG. Thanks again everyone, -Greg

adjust the CG or trim
I have a Fliton extra 330s freestyle and I can get it to balance a little nose heavy on a CG machine but I have to be right dead on the angle where the plane will balance or else the tail or nose will drop in a second. When I'm flying the plane and let go of the controls the plane will dive fast!, so should I trim this out or move my battery back and forget what the CG machine is telling me and adjust the CG to what the plane is telling me?. I'm balancing the plane with the fuel tank empty , plane upside down and the fuel tank is maybe 3-4 inches behind my saito. Thanks Greg

RE: Good 2nd plane?
I bought the pulse 60 as my 2nd plane ... after my first being a nexstar, and I LOVE the pulse 60. This plane is a dream to fly, but this is the second plane I ever flown so what do I know :)

Jetmach 60 Questions
I seen a couple guys fly some jets at my field and now....I WANT ONE! Ive been doing a little reseach and decided if im going to get into turbines a jetmach 60 would be a good place to start. I see the jetmach is a kit, and the planes I always have bought been ARFs. Also when I buy the jetmach I would like to get a turbine I can use down the road when I upgrade to other jets, instead of having to also dump more cash on a larger turbines. Questions No. 1 If I have never built a kit before is the jetmach a bad place to start? I plan on buying the jet mach soon ( since its a kit ), and the turbine down the road.....when i get the cash hehehe :) So if i did buy this kit a lot of time will be on my hands. Question No. 2 The turbine! I know the jetcat 60 is a drop in turbine for the jetmach, but if I plane on getting another jet down the road should I go with the p-80 since its the same price as the 60, and a lot more power? Or should I buy the p-70 since the power to wieght ratio is great? Question No. 3 Whens a good time to tell my girl friend I sold her car to buy the turbine engine?
