RE: CG Sig Kouger
The manual says:
βTest fly with the balance point located anywhere between the leading edge of the wing tip and 1/2β back from the leading edge at the wing tip.
Sport Fly at 1/2β back from the Leading Edge at the wing tip.
Aerobatics β If your model will spin in both directions at 1/2β it need not be moved back any further. Some models need the balance point at 3/4β back for full response.
Flying with the balance point any further back than 1β from the tip is not recommended unless you are and expert flyer, with a purpose for doing so.β
And three more paragraphs of warnings.

RE: CG Sig Kouger
the planes balnce states one quarter to one half inch..I started at 1/2 inch but I feel I can move it another quarter inch which seems extreme but at least for me it is not.this is my second on.
In fact I tested out the the wings CG using a simple equation and calculator.the article is in the model plane issueof may 2001.. the formula works for most average model types.the kougar's swet wing is no exception.the formula concluded my CG was at 1/2 inch. the article provide a easy example and I trust it .
