I've never done this before. I'm having trouble finding a good pivot point? Everything I've tried so far, it either points down, or up. Am I just retarded? Is there a method? Got this on mega clearance at Target awhile back. I think retail was normally $55, but on clearance I got it for $19.

A noose should do the trick but you’ll have to test it first

I imagine the CoG is pretty far forward, probably under Sonic. I'd hang it nose-down, and see if you can get it level with weight (coins, for instance) back on the horizontal stabilizers. Barring that, find that aforementioned center of gravity, then insert an eye hook in that bad boy and hang it from there.

Tie a strand of fishing line to the ends of the wings and the tail, bring the lines together and adjust them so that the plane sits at the level you want, now tie the ends together.

I'll give this a try. I'm trying to hide the fishing line as best I can. Any tips on that?

Try to balance it on a finger, or some single point from beneath it. If you can find that, the same point from the top should be where you can hang it

I would say use more than 1 string. I would use 4, one for the front, one for the back and one each on the wings.

Attach the fishing wire in three places
End of each wing and on the tail.
Hold the wires in one hand.
Adjust slack/tort until you get the desired angle
If it’s above you, you might appreciate it pointing down slightly

>>11489584
Get wire the same colour as your ceiling

One piece of fishing line. Test line rated for 10lb will be plenty and will be hard to see.

Tie a slip loop onto each end and tighten the loop onto the upper wing tips.
have the mid-point of the resulting arc of fishing line go under the tail. Pull up the two arcs from either side of the wing and tail and overlap then secure to a thumbtack or ceiling hook

You now have 3 points of contact that will allow you to adjust how level it is in pitch or roll.
