RE: Stinger 120 ARF weight?
Handling.....jury is still out. Was windy on Saturday when flown and plane did not feel locked in properly. Felt like it was not staying in trim, handled a little tailheavy, but CG is at 4-3/4". Flew my Jerry's Big Boy, same size and wing area, but is lighter, and that flew excellent. So, something about the plane, I think is not quite dialed in yet properly.
ARF CG is stated as 4.5-5" so I aimed for the middle. Kit is 4.5-5.5. People seem to be flying the kit at 5-1/8". No idea why the CG and throws are shown differently, unless the airfoil center of pressure is slightly different on the ARF, resulting in the need for a different CG.
KIT
CG 4.5-5.5" (5" nominal)
Lo/Hi rates
Elev - 1.75"/2.25"
Ail - 0.5"/0.75"
Rud - 3"/4.5"
ARF
CG 4.5-5" (4.75" nominal)
Lo/High Rates
Elev - 1"/all you can get
Ail - .75" / all you can get
Rud - 1.5"/all you can get
Well, I gotta finish packing for Toledo.
