Default CG on Sigs ultimate fun fly?

TailTwister
I'm going to use the holdowns that were supposed to be used for the pushrods to hold wires in place. I'm using Towers standard servos 65 metal gear for the elevator and a 53 for the rudder. I also used a piese of 1/8 x1/4 spruce stick cut into 3/4 inch lengths for servo mounting then hardened the balsa with thin CA, The servos are mounted off set 3/8 of a inch from each other and as far back as I could get them without going under horizontal stab. Balances perfect. I would assemble the plane and tape the servos in place before cutting any holes then you can get the CG where you want it. I'll try and get a picture this weekend.
