Default CG weight

Thanks guys,that is some good info.What I did was add the weight to the main frame just under the rutter.The Kobat has a half inch square tube frame or maine boom and the stick on weights are the same size,onehalf inch so they fit fine.I think I will drill them and put some screws in them to hold them on. I have a OS 46FX on it and it is as far back as it can go.I put the weights on the left side,looking from the rear to help with I juess you call it torque roll? If I am messing up please let me know cause I am not going to fly this beast until everything is right! Yea,the Laser 6 is cool and I got it for furture planes I hope!! The head of the OS hangs horizonal on the plane and it is heavy on the right side,that is why I put the weights on the left side of the plane,is there anything else I can do to correct for the off weight?
Again,thanks guys,you all are what makes this sport fun to get into,you don,t mind helping us newbees getting started,for that I take my hat off to you all....Swampthing
