Default Classic Bandit CG Location?

I've lost my notes and had a case of brainfade ... [doh] can somebody give me a memory refresh on the optimum location of the CG for the Classic Bandit along with the incidence setting for the stabs? Thanks for any clues.

Mike,
The starting CG is 8 1/2" back from the leading edge measured along the fuselage side, gear down, empty tanks and full UAT.
Stabilizer leading edges down 3/16 below the molded root.
Coming up to Kalispell?

Thanks for the skinny, Harley. I knew if anybody knew it would be *you* thanks!

Wrt Kalispell, Over the past few weeks/months I've sent you PMs via RCU (since I have no current email address for you) PM button on that topic and have never received a reply. Publicly the short answer is NO due to work obligations (which are kicking my ass) and the fact I can't work in the 4-day total drive time to and fro ...

Mike,
Thanks for the info...The last PM I received from you was on 4-22. Sorry to hear that you probably won't make it.
It's a ways up here, but it's worth it.
I talked to Larry not long ago, and he and Deiter purchased a pretty big deal motorcoach to make the trip in. I guess they will be stylin'.
Good luck on the Bandit. I just finished the paint job on the 4 year old Super Balsa Bandit conversion to composite wings, and the batteries are charging as I write this. I'm almost ready for the maiden.
