Default RE: Newbie Question about plane weight

You are better off more nose heavy than tail heavy, especially on a maiden. Get a feel for the plane first, then you can slide your CG fore or aft to fine tune it. As long as you balance within range of what the manual says (probably dead nuts on the center spar), you should be OK.
