Greetings
Quick question about the C of G for the Parkzone Spitfire.
From new with the stock battery I found this to be 50mm from the leading edge , not 67 as stated in the manual.
Flown it now many times and it seems fine.
As you can't slide the battery tray about it's not easy to alter anyway.
A USA web page highlighted the two different C of G positions for stock and Lipo battery.
How can this be right?
I have just purchased the 1400mAh battery from yourselves which is slightly heavier than stock item so I wanted to confirm the balance point.
Surely the stock battery should be spot on from factory on this type of model (ARTF) without the need to balance things up.
Yours confused

PS You don't sell the Typhoon - is there a reason for this.
