Arrowmaster wrote this on Reddit:
The following parts are all marked as being ignored by physics simulations and have 0 mass in flight.

  • Science experiment sensors (only the small sensors, not the goo or materials bay)
  • Lights
  • Communotron 16 antenna
  • Communotron 88-88 dish
  • Ladders
  • 1.25m to 0.625m adapter plate
  • Small Hardpoint
  • Cubic Strut
  • Octo Strut
  • Struts
  • Radial Attachment Point
  • Small landing gear
  • RCS thrusters
  • OX-STAT solar panel
  • Small and large radially attached batteries (wtf squad?)

I had discovered that's VAB or SPH (and your mod) apply these parts weight while preview center of mass.

Could you fix this problem ?

Thanks for the report, this is already fixed on master.

I confirm issue for large radial battery and cubic strut. Not tested/checked anothers parts yet... Do you need I do it ?
Nb: I feel "Small Gear Bay" could be probably ignored too.

Like I said, is fixed on master. If you didn't compile the master branch then you aren't going to see the fix.

I don't know how to compile myself. But I see you had published new release, thank you :)
