Default Northwest Tool Supply Macchi 202

I just completed and flew this 1/12 scale Macchi yesterday. It is set up exactly per plans with the CG 50mm behind the leading edge. Is this correct? The plan flies but is extremely sensitive in pitch and will snap out of loops or hard turns. The plane has a TT 15 for power.

Default Macchi 202 CG

Anyone building one of these beware. The CG on the plan is too far aft. Instead of 50 mm set it at 25 mm. With the correct CG the plane is a great flier. With a cheap TT15 the plane is fast and very manueverable. I would definitely recommend this kit.
