Default RE: DP Edge 540 CG question

ORIGINAL: Kyle2Baseball

what i am saying is that is the 6 inches back correct because on that when u try to hold it on your fingers to balance it it falls of forword like real fast it is extremly nose heavy at that 6 inch mark im wondering if it has been moved up because he fund a mistake

If the plane were very nose heavy it would require an excessive amount of down when inverted. In the ones I have flown the cg does not need to be as far back as the instructions indicated. The worst one was the H-9 version and it did have incorrect information regarding the cg. It was really too far back and the more fuel was burned it got worse. It sounds as if the way you have it set is fine. The only way to check it now is to fly.
