Default Need CG for Shrike .10

I was wondering where the CG on a Lanier Shrike .10 is. My plans were lost when I moved recently. I have on O.S. .25fx up front and I'm assuming that the battery will be going all the way back. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I got my Shrike .10 today !

Extract from Lanier (well documented [sm=thumbup.gif] ) web site :


The initial CG point is 4 1/2" measured back from the leading edge on the fuselage.
Shriken Control Throws :
Ailerons 1/8 to 3/16
Elevator 1/4 to 3/8


Which paint scheme did u choose?

Great! Thanks a lot Strykaas! Should have everything done in a few days... I'll post a pic when I'm done with it. It is covered in White Ultracote. Top is trimmed with red triangles (almost looks like birds wings) and the bottom has White/Blue stripes (like a magic extra). Can't wait to get this thing in the air! Thanks again!
