When flying full scale I love a light snappy A/C, however when I am flying full IMC with passengers it is far more comfotable for them and far easier for me if I am closer to the max gross weight.
Interesting!
Do full scale pilots have any control over the CG location, or do they have to fly in a different manner when that CG is way off the ideal location?
You have a range that you can safely operate in and can move passengers or luggage to help. Ideally you want to fly towards the rear of the the envelope for better range and speed, but it is better to stay more forward for turbulent conditions and when doing aggressive maneuvers. Some also have different ranges depending on the type of flying or configuration.
