wasnt sure where to post this but if have chosen a plane and chosen the powerplant, and the firewalk forward weight is heavier than the design calls for. Could the cg of the plane be changed before construction to compensate for the known firewall forward weight. The plane is pro composites vision and the engine is 2.5 subaru conversion. Power goes up some but not drastically. I have not ordered plans yet so dont even know the firewall forward weight but do knos the auto conversion can and will most likely weigh more than aircraft engine.
Please no debate on auto vs aircraft. Plenty of threads on here and probably read all of them.
Im just doing my homework before i proceed.
The other plane was considering was the kr2s
The corvsir sparked my interest butvthe conversion cost snd low hp was not attractive. That and the old technology cylinder heads and old core parts again made it un desirable to me.
