Default Control surface throws for flying wing?

rc yogi 2,
Yep, since a Diamond Dust has a symmetrical airfoil, the same reflex vs. CG sweet spot applies. To even get close to this with my DD, I ended up moving the CG back 5/8" behind the farthest aft CG shown on the plans. Even at -5/8", the DD was still slightly nose heavy, but was much better than before.
