Great to hear from you and congrats! I have not flown mine yet. Just some high speed taxi so far. Finished it over the winter and just started flying again this year. I have a few questions if you don't mind.

What was the all up flying weight with fuel? Mine is 12.5 lbs.
How did the CG work out? At the recommended 110 mm it seems to be very heavy on the nose gear and unlikely to have much rotation on takeoff. Normally on high speed taxi test I can tell if the nose starts to get light with a little up elevator, but it seemed to want to stay firmly planted.
Are you flying off grass or pavement?

thanks
Don
