I built this P40 Warhawk from a Guillow's balsa kit. Then I converted it into an electric radio control plane by installing an electric motor, esc, receiver & servos. The maiden flight resulted in a crash as the plane was too tail heavy and made it difficult to control. I successfully repaired it and ultimately had a successful flight. I have since retired it and just keep in on display.

Thats a tough lesson to learn, tail heavy planes are damn near impossible to control. learned it the hard way myself.

Yes, I realize this is almost 6 years old, but it's the first time I saw it, so I will comment. Beautiful job. I disagree with some of the comments that the balsa made it too heavy. I have flown RC for over 40 years and until the ARF craze ALL: models were heavy. You did a good job building. But like some said, you do need to check the CG before the maiden. I know from experience. :). I am planning on building a Guillow’s and convert it to electric. The balsa sheeting is a good idea. And yes, you do sound like Johnny Cash.

a nose heavy airplane may fly poorly but a tail heavy airplane will only fly once.

Balsa covering added weight and obviously you changed the CG . Balance it next time on the main spar and perhaps up your horsepower .
