Default Integral CG question

Hi

I'm at the balance stage of assembling my Integral and here is my delima.

The manual says the CG is 205mm from the leading edge, which is aft of the wing tube. To get it to balance there, the batteries have to be way back, almost over the wing tube, which dosn't seem correct to me.

If I balance at the middle of the wing tube (which is about 180+/- mm) the batteries end up in a "normal position" over the landing gear, "normal" being described as observations at the field.

Jarvis, Woodie, Steve, or anyone, please give me guidance.

Thanks,
Randy
