Ok your on the bird is a T/F G/S Corsair
Wing span 86.5 ''
length from lip of cowl to tail 70''
weight is 30.3 lbs

fwd monent cowl L/E to leading edge of wing is 12''
C/G is 173/8'' aft of L/E cowl or 53/8 aft od wing L/E
Fuel tank is 16 oz centered at the 12'' point over the L/E of the wing

We balanced with the gear up and it is 2 deg,s nose down, and no fuel.

It flies great my problem is on landings due to our grass field you have to tuch down a bit softer than a sport typ bird and 3 point are out of the question it will tip stall and torque roll. That is why I got the sim, I get it down safe but it is not pertty
