[MENTION=3]GYRO[/MENTION]You described my setup precisely.
Again, the question is what is the optimal spec for the battery.
My AUW is 86 oz...I added a 1/2 oz in the tail and I figure I need to add may be another 1/2 to make it neutral. I don`t see why mine would come out nose heavy... I`m using a Castle 100 amp ESC with internal BEC, 5245 hitechs, 4016t motor, and 6s 3300s....I even made a tray and mounted the RX aft of wing tube...I`m not worried about the 1 oz. as the plane flew pretty light. Customer service for 3DHS for me has been fine BTW and they always email me back, but I do see some guys complaining, but I`m not one of them..
Oh, that is a good idea...I have it mounted on top of the motor box. I honestly have everything all mounted so I`ll probably not mess with it. The 1 oz. of weight is not the thing holding me back from the XFC, its my thumbs...
Oh, it was a good tip...I also added a sheet of ply for a better battery tray..Not sure if Gyro and I are the only guys doing this? You can literally rip the tray out of one and become a lawn dart when the battery ejects...I add 1/16 sheet ply to the tray and mark it with a sharpie and ruler to see CG position. I also use a scorpion strap from a heli.That maybe were my 1 oz came from, but I`m ok with that.
