lennyk,
If you have experience with 1/4 scale or aerobatic planes then you should not have a problem with the CG being at 9.75 inches.

funfly2005,
I have two version of this plane. One glow (engine has been sold) and one gas. Using my 9C radio, I have adjusted the elevator halves so that the plane will not snap at low to medium rate deflection. At high rate the plane will still snap. What I have found is that on my glow version the nose drops when I stall at slow speeds and with the gas version the plane tip stalls. I think this has to do with how it was assembled and/or built at the factory. The first plane was better quality than the second one.
