Barry, "Get the lead out". Move the engine forward. You can get a different engine mount or make spools to go between the engine case and mount.
If you are going to balance your elevator, do it on the elevator. If you are not a very fast plane, maybe it does not matter that much. Balancing is always a good practice, but none of the early KRs had balance on anything but the ailerons. Be sure your control cables are never allowed to get sloppy, put your rudder cable in a closed loop. Your results will vary. N64KR Daniel R. Heath - Columbia, SC da...@kr-builder.org See you in Mt.
