Can anyone tell me the CG from the nose of their "built per kit instructions" FatBoy WITHOUT the motor inserted.
Thanks!

I got that, but I am just trying to get an approximate CG point from a stock build. I realize that no two builds are going to be the same because of build factors like how much glue is used, paint, and finishing techniques. However, the differences should not be that much.

Normally yes.
BUT, since I have already added weight by a heavier motor mount setup, I am just trying to get the relationship of CG/CP from the stock mount. If I took the CG of a stock kit with say a C6-7 loaded, it would not be nearly the same as mine with a C6-7 loaded since my mount is already heavier without a motor.
