midwest Aerostar, 53" wingspan, .36 TT Pro engine, 4 channels, Spectrum DX6i TX.
I started this plane 20 years ago. I'm finally going to finish it.
I lost the instructions years ago.

Without the instructions I'm not sure of two things...

1. How far back from the lead edge of the wing is the CG and how much room for error?
I know tail heavy is bad!

2. How much movement do I need on the controls?
the info I have so far is
Elevator = 1/4" inch up and down.
Rudder = 1/4" right and left.
Ailerons = 1/2" up 1/4" down

(doesnt seem like much movement to me?)

What about the front wheel? how much movement here?
I'm having a little trouble with binding on the front wheel control line.
On grass, is the turning done with the rudder or the wheel or both?

Getting close, should finish up this week? 1st flight next weekend???

Thanks for everyones help
