Well, I finaly had some time to work on the Edge. Bought myself a Great Planes Balance Machine, so now I should be able to nail down that CG. After much wrestling, I discovered my CG was at the 3.5" mark. Very nose heavy. I say wrestling because the CG machine was a bit akward with a plane this size. Plus I was trying to balance up on the curve of the leading edge and the CG machine kept sliding off.
As i said before, I'm cutting everything back down to basics and starting over.Obviuosly the CG is the place to start. We'll see what happens when i move it back almost 2"
