Glide Test for a Pusher

[alan0043]

Hi Everyone,

I have a couple questions about doing a glide test for a pusher style plane. The plane is a OMP Hobby T720. From what I have seen on line that this plane tens to be tail heavy. I know that Josh talks about doing glide test on rc air craft. Here is my question. Should I except a pusher style plane to have the same glide characteristics as a normal plane ? I have an idea but not sure, that is the reason for the questions.

Thanks for any input,
Al

Yes, the glide characteristics will be the same for a pusher as for a tractor style plane.
