Default Madness C Of G Madness!!!!

Hi all

I'm just setting up my Madness and in the single sheet of instructions it gives the C of G as 200mm back from the leading edge. From what i've read most have it 37 to 38 percent and I work 200mm as being about 42 percent has anyone else tried it this far back.

TIA



Regards



Mike

I can't tell you where my CG is on either my Flip or Madness, I don't measure that stuff. I fly the plane, and make adjustments until it flys the way I want it to fly. Here is hint, most all my planes, I need to push down elevator to land them, thats how far back the CG is. Most people pick up my planes and are amazed how far back it is.
