CG's are usually about a 2.5 : 1 ratio between the tail moment and the nose.
So if you move a 2 oz servo from the tail you roughly gain 5 oz in the nose. Or said another way it's like adding 5 oz to the nose.
Of course you have to add a pushrod to the back so you would get about 4 oz in tail weight relief. With all of the stuff (battery etc) forward you would probably balance. I can't promise you that because each plane is different.
I have seen many Quests running with lighter 2-c 91's and tuned pipes, or not. They all balanced. I can't guess much more than this.

So if just using the satio and reg. mount, could I mount battery pack up front in the firewall area and have it still bal. out. What about placing servos up as far foward as possible?
