Wil,

Yes this sounds about right..I will have to admit I haven't done a final balance yet as I am not done with the repairs yet. I don't want to re-balance until I have my canard piece back on! I separated the left canard panel my last flight. I'll get you specific weight numbers when I do the balance. It seems that the calculator allows you to put in a fudge factor by giving the modeler a choice of how they want the airplane to fly. My CG measurement is very close to yours at 1.5 inches.
