Redwing Elite 50cc Slick 540 (new scheme)

@RedwingRC , is this correct?

C/G on this thing says 5" to 6" @ behind L.E. @ Root

I have a friend who is having trouble getting it to balance at this location even with A123 batts on the firewall and a DLE-55
We finally had a good break in weather here and I was able to maiden mine today. Flew like a dream. Mine was a little tail heavy according to plans but turned out perfect. Inverted @ 45 climb it didn't mive hands off. Landings were hands off. It's almost hard to stall. Very predictable...

I have the same setup as your buddy and mounted 2) 2300 a123's behind the wing tube. Didn't have to change a thing. I'll post some pics to the thread.

Glad you are loving it! It's one of my personal favorites. I still have the same one we built 3 or more years ago and I fly it all the time still! A little worn around the edges these days but flies like a dream
