Just built a mini DR1 and love it! Super slow, floaty flight, perfect for smaller parks/fields.
I've found it really difficult to balance, however, my build came out a bit tail-heavy. I removed the tail skid and would like to add some weight to the nose - I'd like to start out with a weighted spinner, the idea being that the further forward I can place the weight, the less I'll need.
Does anyone know the thread size/pitch for the PowerPack F motor? And/or do you have any recommendations for weighted spinners or balancing techniques that might be handy on a little plane like this?
I've already pulled the battery (Tattu 650mah 3s) as far forward as the prop will allow and have been considering pulling the power pod further forward, but I'd like to minimize extra-hole-poking if possible...
