ParkZone Radian with GPS flight logging

I used my Garmin Edge 305 GPS (cycling computer) to log some flight stats. The Garmin Edge does a great job as an alternative to a dedicated flight logger. The full stats for the entire flight can be downloaded to a PC.
My CG (center of gravity) is normally tail heavy so I normally use some ballast in the nose. I removed that for this flight and place the GPS as far back as it would go...as luck would have it my CG was spot on.

My Radian came tail heavy so I needed to add ballast in the nose to get my CG right. I removed it when I flew with the Garmin and the CG happened to be spot on. If you have no ballast and your CG is correct then I would suggest adding some ballast to the tail to cater for your 301.

Did you have to add any weight to the tail to balance your CG? I have the Garmin 301 and would like to try it out.
