Agreed on the nose heavy comment. I can't tell you how many times I've seen people advise new modelers to balance their planes "a little nose down just to be safe" as if having the CG at 26% instead of 25% of MAC will cause the plane to crumple itself into a ball and catch fire mid flight. I'd say a lot of new pilot woes could be avoided by having an experienced modeler set the CG and throws on the model.
