My CG is located where the arrow points on your drawing. I checked it exactly at the point where the wings join together. I checked the CG with the plane rightside up, and the gear UP. I have zero...

Lane,
You should jump on that one. You need a green and a white one! How's yours been flying? Did you get the engine problem worked out? Mine is flying great!

Mine balances exactly on the main spar at the wing joiner section. It still requires quite a bit of push to maintain level inverted flight. I think you can move your CG rearward if you want to. It...

A 16 oz tank is too big for a 20. 10 or 12 ounce will work fine.
I would extend the rudder about a 1/2 inch at the top and 1 inch at the bottom.
