(Hamiltonians), Fluid Dynamics, Gaussian Distribution, Dynamical Systems, and Linear Algebra 101.
Did that and more thanks. Nice way to encourage discussion, BTW.
Now that I'm qualified to reply
, this makes no sense:
I am in the process of fusing the wings to the fueslage so that the energy from the wings transfers to the fuselage and to the nose and tail giving the aircraft a shifting CG and balance.
-Maybe you could explain what you mean. The loads are transferred to the fuselage by the spars as supplied with the kit. If you are actually going to make the wings non-removeable, You could add strength by running CF across the wing joints. Don't know that you need it - in which case it's wasted effort. None of which affects how the aircraft handles CG location. The CG postion is not negligible. As with any other plane, the is a range of acceptible locations. I suggest reading "Aircraft Stability and Control" by Perkins & Hage.
And now for my silly comment:
