This discussion throws my idea of stub tanks right out the window and
with good reason as I am a complete novice (onlly just started finishing
this project) and did not adequately consider CG.

Michael,
I was considering your situation during my morning shower and came to
the following conclusion. If I were in your situation rather than
trying for folding / removable wings I'd finish the aircraft for best
possible flight characteristics and look in to a 100% aircraft cover for
outdoor tie down. Removable / folding wings will be a disincentive to
go flying as well as the design obstacles needed to overcome. A good
cover should be good for several years I'd think. The canopy would be
my main concern as any continuous movement of the cover my cause
scuffing. Other areas of the aircraft are paint and paint is paint. I
comes in a spray can. I have no idea what year around weather your area
faces but a good UV cover would be my first concern, that and good
tie-down points. Food for thought.........
