Hi Todd, actually, the plane pretty much balanced spot on where Dave shows the CG. I did add 8 oz. to the nose since it is a prototype, just to shift it a bit forward. After flying it, I think I have the CG spot on and I think Dave plans to move the CG forward 1/2 inch on the plans. The total weight was just shy of 48 pounds without fuel, so probably takes off at about 50 pounds fueled. It was a very docile airplane in the air.
