Default RE: Kougar inverted question

The manual says real bad things will happen if the balance is rearward and I believed them.

“Test fly with the balance point located anywhere between the leading edge of the wing tip and 1/2” back from the leading edge at the wing tip.

Sport Fly at 1/2” back from the Leading Edge at the wing tip.

Aerobatics – If your model will spin in both directions at 1/2” it need not be moved back any further. Some models need the balance point at 3/4” back for full response.

Flying with the balance point any further back than 1” from the tip is not recommended unless you are and expert flyer, with a purpose for doing so.”

And three more paragraphs of warnings.

As a reference point I still would like to know how much elevator it takes to keep a Kougar inverted?
