I just bought a Dynaflite Freedom. Dose any one have an old manual showing where the CG is??????
It has a 6 foot wing and full flying T-tail. This ship was made back in the late 80s. I had one back then and it is a great sloper. The wing has a very large cord at the root and tapers down to 4 inches at the tips. The leading edge is a straight taper back to the tips. I was just hoping some one out thee could help with this question.

Thanks

the main spar is usually the cg. except fpr sweep. average thickest point on the airfoil is the center of lift. test with the cg on the cl

Thanks,
Thats pretty much what I figured.
This wing is basicly a delta wing and I know there is a formula some place that you can use to figure out the cg. I was hoping some one out there was familar with this plane.

I had a few and it was about 3-3.5 inches back from the LE at the fuse. The best way to do it is go half way out on each wing and balance it at the spar. The freedom liked to be slightly nose heavy for the slope. Post a pic if yo can.

Hey guys, this was a dream glider of mine when I started flying in the 80s. I was never able to get one before they stopped production. Anyone know where I might find one for sale??
