Thaflyer:
I have my cg set @ 5 1/2 inches, my plane weights 18# dry & 21# wet with 24oz fuel & 24oz smoke oil. I have a g-62, 8-hobbico 110oz/in servo's & 1 standard, tme smoke with 24oz tank right on cg, dual reciever batteries & switches under cockpit floor, I found the plane to fly good, but I only fill the smoke tank about half full to keep a little weight off of it & try to burn all the smoke oil before landing. I have had to land right after take off to make engine adjustments with both tanks full & it was quite a hand full on landing.
Hope this helps

Make sure to install some flying wires on the tail feathers, some flyers have lost complete stab/elev. halves in flight, the supplied wires aren't any good, I used 35# leader wire for fishing leaders from wal-mart, works good.
