Stop thinking of who is CEO, who is CTO, which one should do what kind work. Startup founders should think about what makes your company survive. If your customers/investor come to you because of your R&D, R&D head should control the company, earn most, and all other work should be done by other co-founders. Otherwise, if they come to you because of your product strategy, then you should let that guy control the company, it's good for you at the end. If none of you know what is the core competitiveness of your startup, you all should more concentrate on the product/service/marketing per se. Who take control is not important and you all will learn a lot.
