Have you installed the retract plates in wing or did you decide to go with fixed gear? The plan if memory serves me correct shows the tricycle gear rear mount at 1 inch behind cg, the plane will tip front to back on landing. Move the gear back about 1/16 of an inch. This will help keep the plane from having the rocking horse like effect of tipping on the tail skid after fuel is burned out of tank on landing. That usually happened when the landing was complete and plane stopped rolling.
