Default RE: Magic Formula 3D

Wizone, Did I miss something or what was the solution. Mine is due its maiden voyage very shortly after getting a great deal of King Wilson of YT (top bloke), but it is way out on the CG, with a standard pack and a saito 72 up front the CG is 140mm, with a heavy old heli pack its 130mm, but weight is 4lbs 14oz. I reckon it will need about half a pound of lead to get it to balance!!. Used carbon rods at the tail to lighten it but it is still out. How much does yours weigh?, did you have to bung some weight upfront and how much?, does she fly as well as she looks???, have you noticed any flutter issues that others have mentioned?? as I was considering bracing the back end, but I would need to own a lead mine to get it balance!!!.
