Sorry for not seeing this thread sooner and being a little more prompt with some responses here. I'll try my best to answer all the questions that I can.
CG
There was a little bit of a miscommunication on this, and I take full responsibility for that. Originally Josh told me the CG was 1.75 inches from the leading edge. I got the specs from Alex on release day and noticed that the CG was listed as 2.75 inches. Alex told me to use the 2.75 inches but that didn't seem right based on the glider version that I built so I left it at 1.75 inches on the plans. I have since built a second glider (such a fast build, so why not) and balanced it at 2.75 inches. If you watch the build video, Josh puts in some up elevator with the CG at 2.75. They probably did a lot of testing to find the sweet spot for the glider. I can say that without the up elevator (I did not cut in control surfaces for my gliders) 2.75 is a little tail-heavy. I think the glider is slightly nose-heavy with the CG at 1.75 inches, but it's definitely flyable.
AILERONS
The feedback that I got from Josh was that the ailerons are not needed and the Sparrow flew much better without them.
PLANS
@localfeind - I am not seeing what you are referring to with the score and cut lines not being correct. If possible can you take some screen caps of your plans and markup where you think the errors are?
