Has anyone hung the engine with the wings and tail off?
I'd like to do that but was wondering if the CG would be too far and make
the front end too tippy.
Thanks,

Works fine. Only tipping problem is if you crawl back in the fuselage to
hook up antenna, then you can get areal lesson in weight and balance.

Probably wouldn't hurt to weigh down the tail for extra security anyway.....

Care must be taken with the engine on and no prop, if you decide to go inside the
tunel
(to instal antennas, e.g). The tail will go down. It almost happenned with me inside.

That's what I did. The center section is pretty close
to center of gravity but I put 2 horses under it. 1
under the center section and another under the next
bulkhead aft. Once up on the gear the fuselage is
pretty hight to work on. You can customize your
horses with nice short legs to keep things down to a
comfortable hight.

I take you are all talking about -9A's and not -9's?
I'm about to pull the wings and tail off so I can reposition my -9 to
hang the engine. Yes, mine is a tail dragger.
Thanks for the help.
