looks like a top quality plane. i have a guanli version of the A6 and have just rebuilt it after a crash. could you tell me roughly where the COG should be? mine is about 5" further back than it states in the manual despite me having added quite a bit of weight to the front.
@flapyamada in front or behind? mine is pretty much in the middle of the plane but manual says it should be really far forward. just wondering if it's a typo in the instructions or if my plane is just not right

@JTV84
Leading edge means wing front edge, so CG is 100mm-110mm behind from wing front.
Anyway this position is middle.

@flapyamada thanks. sounds like mine is ok. the instructions suggest it should be around the leading edge/inlet duct area so it must be a mistake.

Where did you get the RC plane? I am looking for an EA-6B RC airplane. Do you know where I could find one?
