The ideal C.G. position is 55mm (2.16 in) behind the leading edge measured
at where the wing meets the fuselage. In order to obtain the C.G. specified,
add weight to the fuselage or move the battery position. Check the C.G. before
flying.
If you are converting this model to electric, please move the C.G. forward 10% of
current C.G. distance from leading edge to compensate for weight of fuel.
