Its 2.25 from LE same as before. This exercise is not about CG movement.

 I watched Viper fly at least 5 times this past weekend and since I launched for you every time, I watched each flight closely and I was really impressed. That plane is special!!! As you get more time on it, I think you will see big improvements in your flying. The road to the 2014 Nats is already 60+ days old. You have a great head start as you have not one, but two great flying planes!!! I did not see any bad tendencies in either plane but Viper just stood out above the rest. Just keep flying that plane, the results will come.

 Ditto, except I never launched it. 

 That's some good solid advice from William there. The plane looks very good right off the bench, just work on fine tuning the trim and burn a LOT of electrons between now and next July. After seeing these early flights of Viper 9 I really don't think it's necessary to bother with the next less chord version, get out and fly.
