Default RE: Basic Aerobatic Help

Thanks for the help, I went out after dinner to check the CG of my wing.

I used the plumb method with a chalk line, and found that the CG was exactly 8 inches from the nose, but it was 2 and a quarter inches to the left!!!

I made the WRONG assumption that since the wing and gear was so symetrical, that the laterial balance should be perfect.

I have moved the flight pack, and reciever to remedy this mal-alignment.

unfortunately I live in western new york, and it's far to windy to test out my changes.

Morning can't get here soon enough.


Thanks again for your help!
