Hello!
I am glad that I fell asleep when I did because I have been working on this project a little too much and with too many nights so, a good night rest to see things in a better perspective does wonders.
For example, this morning I finally found the section of the Manual where it shows the Center-Of-Gravity and it is exactly 6 inches from the leading edge of the wing where the wing meets the FUSE!
This is great news since I can move the large battery a few inches back as right now it is NOSE HEAVY! By moving the battery a few inches back the top hatch can now be secured without any pressure or the need to take away any wood from it and not make any contact with the top side of the battery.
Again, I am glad that I didn't go out the RC Club field today to fly it as the conditions are nice but, with lots of wind and the pilot would have been tired!
Here is the manual showing you the balance point.
