Hey there speedracerntrixie, lighten up a little, will ya? You guys are saying the same thing.

If you look at Grosbeak's first post, in the last line of the Notes section he says " Remember that this is just a starting point; you will likely need to fine tune the CG after flying"

Seems to me that is exactly what you are saying, is it not?

Grosbeak is trying to give modelers an alternative way to get "in the CG ballpark" as you say, with an added benefit of giving you the total weight of your airplane at the same time. He's not saying that this method is the be-all and end all, he's presenting another option.

I too have been flying for over Forty years, but I'm not afraid to have somebody show me something new.

Regards,

Dennis
