Aileron travel is: 1.25" UP and 1.00" DOWN. (Differential)
As far as the CG is concerned, I would recommend making a few test flights at the factory recommended postion, and then, if you think it is nose heavy, sneak the CG aft in 1/8" increments until satisfied.

I really appreciate the help!!!
Any plans for BVM to market the plane?
I understand what you are saying but the CG is about 10% back of the wing which sounds unflyable to me. I think I calculated the CG some 10 years ago when I first maidened. I wish I was not an old guy and could remember but to many different jets since then. I want to say my calculated cg was on the front spar but I will do calculations again to confirm. I cant believe I forgot to mark my CG when I started taking things out for the redo
Thanks again
Kevin
