I haven't a clue as to how a tank of that six would work in reguards to balance. I guess my main concern would be the durability. I know this is all experimental (or at least mental ) so I understand keeping cost to a minimum to get it going. However it works, it flies a LOT better than my plane!!!

Lol....totally experimental!
These planes I dug out of the dumpster ,I barely caught them in time before they met their faith ,so if its a bomb ,let it explode ,
if so ,its no loss ,if it does manage to fly ,I will beat it!...

The CG is currently between the spar an the leading edge of the wing with a full tank ,
The plane is still real light as well!
that's with out radio gear ,I will try to balance out with it!

Have you checked your CG yet? Your going to have to balance it with the battery and radio equipment. That plane has a really long nose.

Where I have no experience at all with flight (other than a cox helicopter that made it thru maybe 5 flights and a LOT of duct tape( you plan sounds good to me! Lol! It's fun for me to watch and learn, whether its cars, planes or lawnmowers! I store all this stuff away in my brain... Occasionally it even comes back out as helpful to me or others! Carry on and post often, with success or failure. It's all learning either way!
