How are you balancing this plane. Fuel tank full or empty? I noticed that the tank is behind the CG, if you balance it empty when you take off you would be tail heavy, which might account for some of the trim problems encountered. And if you balance it full you would land nose heavy, which might not be too bad. I will look to see if I can slide the tank further forward above the CG. Input anyone?
