Default RE: Balancing Question

Here's a graphic that should help you determine the Mean Aerodynamic Chord (MAC) and the CG. First point to start is 25% of MAC, then move it back gradually as you get use to flying the plane. It will eventually start to feel unstable, so you move it forward a 1/4" or so from there.

Good luck,
