These are my findings with a Xicoy CG meter on the Ultra Flash Evor:
Fuel in the tank does not change CG until it reaches the flat part of the tank which is when you start seeing the fuel. The CG will move forward a total of 5mm as you fill the tank to full. Also I noticed with CG at 230 and with only the UAT full and the jet resting on it’s tail it will barely stay there without the nose coming back down.
Hope this helps someone.
