Mine on the kit was moving around also. If you looked you could see wear marks on the tube. I cut a small portion of the phenolic tube away in the fuse and then installed a hose clamp around it on the cut out. Allows you to loosen clamp to remove wing tube if you wish but stops the movement.

I'm just putting mine together so I think I'll just fix the wing tube and avoid the problem.
How did your cap balance out R Plante?
Mine seems like its going to be quite tail heavy. I hate adding weight but it sure seems like I'm going to have too add alot.
Thanks

I am using a G 62 and came in tail heavy.There was an earlier thread on balance and the general consensus was the factory cg was more for 3D. I ended up balancing 1/4" ahead of the wing tube but I have'nt finished trimming it out yet. I'll slowly move cg back until I'm happy with it. I had all servos in the tail so I moved the rudder servo to the cockpit area with a pull pull system and moved the battery rx right behind the motor box and balanced with no added wieght. Mine came in a little heavy @ 16.75 lbs . It was kit built and I'm not sure what the arfs are coming in at.Ive only got 4 flights on it but it seems to slow down okay for landing . In the air it handles everything Ive tried so far (no 3 D yet).
Good luck with yours
