You have to get the CG from your manual or from someone who knows where it is. Once you know where the CG is and put the correct info into the wizard the wizard will tell you were the CUTRENT / WRONG cg is. Then you add/ move/ or subtract weight untill the wizard cg is correct with what the "Target cg" should be. I could be saying it wrong. So the CG wizard....is the Ballance wizard ...lol
Yes, you are saying it wrong, you put the airplane on the pads and the CG Wizard will tell you exactly where the CG is located, and you cannot tell the CG Wizard where the CG is, so it will not tell you the CG is on the nose. You put the airplane on the pads, the CG Wizard tells you where the CG is, then you have to decide if that's where it's supposed to be.
