What's the consensus on C.P.? That should be the same for all of us, at
least if we all built it stock.
It looks like my C.G. is pretty far back compared to others, so I will make
up a nose weight just in case.

Here's what I have so far. I know most of this is preliminary since most
of us don't have our K1440s to check actual weight and balance. I will
continue to update as information comes in.
On Saturday before the Punisher launch, I'll have my digital scale to
weigh in each rocket and do a quick check of CG location.
No hurry- you still have 5 days :-)
