Default RE: GP DR-1 Fokker set up & sugestions?

I got to maiden mine yesterday. Everything went well but it was way too tail heavy. Tonight I made up a CG balancer that would properly fit the GP DR1. I was off on my nose weight by 5oz. The elevator was extremely sensitive. I am adding my normal lots of expo besides the lead shot epoxy mix to the cowl. Its good to hear from you DR1 guys. This is my first WW1 bird.
