Default gws me 109 for slope

Hi all, im fairly new to rc flying , ive been flying zaggi epp and thl 's, some chaps up the slope were quite surprised when they asked how long ive been flying when i told them about 5 hours, then engaged them in combat and did quite well. i spent a lot of time on the slope in the summer 2003 (wind permitting) and then laid back a bit ,didnt get out much in 2004, but now is 2005 and im ready to spend some serious time on the slope this year, my question is that ive bought and built a GWS ME 109 as its my favourite warbird, ive built it for the slope so no motor wheels and so on, has anyone had any experience in slope soaring this baby, also i know this sounds a bit silly but will the c.g be exactly the same as it would for powered flight, she is not glassed and its just elavator and ailerons she weighs in at 14oz's. 2oz over the suggested, need some advice if anyone has any on using theese as p.s.s (ill post a pic when i get me mates digital camera)

Very sharp, and yes the CG would be in the same place.
