So, I am finishing the build of my 30" scratch build cat. Things seem to be balancing up close to what the plan says, but I am about 1/8~1/4 inch forward of the CG recommended by the plan (33% from the rear). I still need to do the servo mount (in the rear), so it may end up balancing fine, but just wanted to know how sensitive CG is in boats (1/4" is fine for planes), and is it better to be tail heavy or nose heavy? In airplanes, nose heavy tends to make planes more stable; logic tells me it will be the same for cats, as tail heavy would tend to flip, right?
