Default World Models GS Mustang help



G'day fellas,
I am putting together aworld models 80inch ridge runner mustang.
I've gotten to the C of G part. The manual said 175mm back from where the wing meets the fuse.
However the wing meets the fuse at two places.



A being where the dowels plug in at the fuse.



B being where the forward most part of the wing sits next to the fuse.



Which one is it?





Thanks in advance Mark

'B'
CoG is usually measured from the root of the wing or very near and this is where 'B' is.
With a low winged model do the CoG check inverted. Dont stand on your head, turn the model up-side-down.
Good luck.

Does the manual have a picture showing this? Or just text?

Thanks fellas,
yeah that manual just described it, (no pic).

It's coming together well, the film they use could be better though, but overall it looks nice.
I painted the pilot as it looked silly, dunno what they were thinking there!

I ended up putting a dle 30 in it and I'm waiting for the canister muffler to arrive
It should just sneak in under 7kg.

Thanks again for your help.

Regards Mark
