Cool plane. I scratch built a twin 64mm Mig-25 not too long ago too! I tried to maiden it, but couldn't transition from throwing to flying fast enough to control. Where is the center of gravity supposed to be on this thing?

Hi Tnkgnr!
It looks to me than your wings are far behind from the intakes.
In my model I found that CG works fine at 1/3 from the leading edge of the wing. That's about 95 to 97 mm.
Always better to have a little nose heavy than tail heavy condition.
My model also needs a good throw with full throttle. (It is a 70mm with a 4 cell battery, and not 64mm as I wrote in the title).
She can fly very stable but could need more power to do better loops. The only difficult thing I find is to take a decent video from my cell.Lol
I hope this helps.
Happy flights! :)
