Hi Michael,
I think 95mm is ok. The reason for this: The chilli wing is not rectangular. The edge of the wing at the back is a straight line but the at the front the depth of the wing is reducing in size when you go to the tips of the wing. So on average 95mm is a third of the wing for the CG.
I hope this was understandable.

Hello Michael,

I know that the center of gravity in the Graupner-drawing is correct because I has flown the Chili many years ago.

Don´t worry, it will fly very good. But note: Chili has always to fly with a good speed, then you will never have a stall.

Good luck, Til
