Thanks, Guy.

I don't think it's a critical issue, so I'm leaving it as is.

Receiver and stabilizer (electric 3-axis gyro) installed in the lower fuselage.

Upper wing screwed and glued on.

I put 12½ ounces of lead weight up front, and it's still a touch tail heavy!

The plane now feels a bit heavy, but I think it'll fly okay. I won't construct and install windshields until I have a successful flight or two.

Decals attached. I'll adjust the triple-rate throws next, otherwise, ready to fly.

She's so pretty.  Wow 3/4 of a pound of weight.

Couldn't help it! 
Loved Simon's post #20 on the Canadian colours (photo 1 shirt suggestion) and Michael's mock-up of the Canadian wing (photo 2). 
Then ran across this display car at Steeles west of Yonge.  Had to stop and take this picture (photo 3, real, not photo-shopped).

Nice finished model Michael.

Great looking yellow plane!  Love the Canadian Airforce roundels.
To solve the nose weight problem (that was anticipated for my Seniorita) I elected to use a 2X4 solid piece of pine for the motor mount. 
It is visible in the picture.
