e-E-Sky Honey Bee- Lama- Belt CP- E-Smart > CG and battery cram question..

Ok Guys,

When trying to install your Lipos for good CG, how do you account for the length of how far the battery sticks out with the canopy? To get mine to where it's balanced, my canopy won't fit without pushing the battery back some. Basically, I'm negating the adjustment to the battery by putting it on. Is there something I'm missing? Did you guys go to a different type mount? Different canopy? I'm using the Dynamic 1250's, but even had this issue with the stock 1000's.

Many thanks,

JC

I just fly mine naked. Unless you go to a scale heli, i wouldnt worry about it unless you need the aesthetics, in which case you need to do like tryan said.

My buddy Mark has the stock King and installs his Bat halfway out of the cage and secures it with some Velcro. I don't use the stock cage and have a custom tray which Kinda forces me to use a bigger canopy like froma ....Dare I say it ????... A T-RIX UH UH
