Dave, you say the CG has changed with the new wings, I guess it's more backward, the old manual says 45-50mm in front of the center of the wing spar tube hole, without the wings on. What's the new CG?
Disco, the scheme was painted by carf years ago, the grey inside i did myself. I don't think carf is allowed to make this scheme anymore.

As you will notice, i am a ultra slow builder. I just got the nosewheel installed.
Red Bull got funny about all the free advertising!

From memory the last one I set up was balanced as CARF said 15mm back from the gear plate opening. (I put my fingers just infront of the cover screws and lifted) Its not super critical on balance so fly and adjust to your thumbs
