Awfully chilly but still looks like fun! I asked builder/pilot Alexey Altukhov about the fairly long engine mount and he said that the wings had been built heavier than per the plans (Using a less expensive but heavier species of wood, I imagine) so he needed to move the engine forward to keep the CG in the right place. Cheers, Matthew
