The rollers on the jig are 8.62" apart. The cg is 2.75 or so from LE.
Holy mackerel that is forward.

What Vic is saying is that the cg is 2.75 back from LE at 4.31 out from CL of airframe.

Me thinbks I used about 200-205 8" +/- 1/8" MM back from wing root.
I know that my first Magnum ran out of elevator on the landing flare, sank like a stone, it's CG was at book settings.

Ah okay - I couldn't quite decipher the gizmo, I see whassup. Thanks. That seems to be about 5.15" from the root LE, or 131mm.
