Salty--

I don't recall any issues with CG. I must have installed battery behind cockpit area. Like I said, I'm sure it will fly OK and if you are just using for sport flying should be fine. The guy that won our raffle plane is not one of our members, I have not met him before, and he was flying a heli the day of our funfly. He bought one ticket and won! I have not seen him since the event (May 21, 2006). Pictures of the plane are on our web site at www.hawksrc.org. Click on Hamilton Hobbies Fun Fly.
