The flexible tape wil place the CG SLIGHTLY forward of where you intended. Usually less than 1/8 inch difference.

Since a sligtly forward CG is rarely (practically NEVER) gong to destroy a model... its not a problem.

Remember... Nose-heavy = slugginsh performance. Tail-heavy = broken airplane. Its easier to fix noseheavy's result after landing than tailheavy's result after impact
