From TH's website:

Center of Gravity: 3.34" (85 mm) Back from the wing's leading edge.

Greetings, Racer.
I found the incidence angle to be incorrect on the Rascal 40 ARF. My wife's plane required the wing to be raised at the trailing end by 3/16" to fly and land correctly.
FYI

Regards,
DGO

Racer, my Sig Rascal 40 recently had its maiden flight, and
balanced perfectly first time at 3/3/8ths. Rascal weighs
7lbs. and 1 oz. My version is electric, and the 16 cell RC2400
pack makes it easy to balance. LNL
