Umm me been a thinking.... we all know the CoG is very important for our models to fly so I wanted to validate the CoG of the Concorde. One has to extraoplate the leading edge of the delta until it meets the center line which just happens to be where the nose block joins, so the planned CoG is 375 mm + 111 mm (486 mm) from this point.
If we pump the numbers into a Java program that I have we get the CoG 328 mm from the delta's point. That is quite a difference so the chuck glider is a must to validate which one is correct....
If the program is nearer then that may explain why the SIM version did crazy things, so I will try loading these values into that model as well and see what happens.
