Wings are extended two feet on either side or 4 feet total. Also have a short engine mount with battery on aft side of firewall and hydr pack just behind passenger. Electric prop-adjust motor and harmonic dampener are mounted with prop on flange and together weigh 41 lbs. Flies superbly except at gross wt where it tends to porpoise under 180 mph. So..., I think that I have as much forward as practical but would still like cg to be farther forward. Greg Nelson
