I flew mine on the front half of the wing tube. I've heard people flying it toward the back of the wing tube, but anywhere on the wing tube is a good place to start.

A agree with Arch. All of my Eclipses have had good flying characteristics with the CG at the wing tube centerline to as much as 1/8" behind the centerline.

Thanks for the help, I'll start center of the tube and adjust back from there as I like my pattern stuff a little more tailheavy than most.
Should be easy to adjust as this Eclipse is electric and those packs are heavy enough to make it balance anywhere..
