Default Rolling HArrier

Mike where is the best place to have the CG in order to do a rolling harrier? I think I've got mine to far back. I think i once heard that a forward CG in good for rolls. My plane will fly hands off inverted, but it's very sensitive on the elevator.

IMO, hands off inverted is way too tail heavy. I'd move the CG forward. I'm guessing that if you put your model on a climbing 45 degree while inverted, it will push to the belly hands off. I trim my models so on an inverted climbing 45, they take a little down elevator to maintain the 45.

Thanks Mike

I added 6 oz in the nose and it's much better.
