balance question - Decathlon

Hello. I am building a Decathlon and I am just about ready to cover it. What I am wondering is how much will the covering affect the balance. I have things placed where the plane balances pretty well per the plans. I am thinking it will add more weight to the tail. Just not sure how bad.

Eric, what kit is your Decathlon?



And as to your question, there is a lot more surface area behind the CG so it should make it a little more tail heavy. What are you covering it with?
