That is exactly my concern which made me ask about the FDM and model origins in the first place. I don't mind if the origin of the FDM and model can be adjustable but once they are set they MUST be static regardless of CG changes. Just because the aircraft may have burnt some fuel off the FDM should still line up with the model. From what I understand that is not the case but I'll re-read the entire thread again to make sure I haven't misunderstood the whole issue.
