i found a calculator on line that i put all my dimensions in and it gave me the positions for the wings so i will actual be a tad bit forward of the original cg but i should not have a problem then. this project is still on the back burrner i am in the process of finishing my top-flight 1/7 scale p-51 right now once it is done i may pick back up this project. too many projects so little time and the money try died lol
