Looks nice.. This plane is essentially the same as a QQ Python with some minor mods to the wings. Mine came in at 26lb wet with a da85 and a mtw 110 can.. My batteries are up on the tray next to the rudder servo and it balanced out perfect. I have my throttle servo mounted on the top of the pipe tunnel just aft of the fuel tank.. I don't like putting the throttle servo that close to the firewall after having a few failuers.. Keep at it!
What size igntion battery are you using? I guess the MTW can is making a difference. If I put my batteries next to the rudder servo, I'd be real tail heavy.

I think I am going to move the rx batteries up on top of the gas tank tray. I have some room there using that fortitude tank. Then I'll put a beefy ignition battery up front.
