I'm looking for advise. I have a scratch built 1/9 F16 very similar dimensions to the Byron/BVM/Yellow Kits. I have the reccomended CG from the plans, but I had to put the majority of my fuel load behind the CG. Should I adjust the CG to account for the nosee heavy landing. I have 16oz behind the CG and a 6oz tank in front of the CG. If I set it per the plans, I will be taking off in a tail heavy condition and landing in a nose heavy condition, just the opposite of a conventional setup. With the construction of the plane, there was not any other option for placing fuel. BTW the plans show a 1 small tank well ahead of the CG. My OS .91 will burn off that amount on takeoff and a couple of laps. The plane is built from Italian plans from Casammali. It was designed to use a 5" pusher fan with a 2 cylinder inline engine. I converted it to a Dynamax/OS .91.

Thanks for any advise,

Mark Levings
