Default RE: Finding the CG

Whohoo, my first post on RCU. Somebody alert the media.

The simplest way to "find" the CG is to put it where it was designed in the first place. On most planes, this is at the main spar location. A good rule of thumb is 25-30% of the wing chord distance aft of the leading edge.

Hope this helps.
