There s a software flying wing CG calculator. Use that. It can be used for delta's or flying wing. Google it you will know.

Vertical fin is an absolute necessity. Unless you are prepared for a crash or you are super-confident of your skills, it would be fun to see it fly without it. Try it in a simulator you will know what its like.
