Default Wild Hare Giles 202

Hey Wakeboy1,
Thanks for the info on the CG. If yours is right on the leading edge of the wing tube then I should be fine as mine is about an inch forward of that. Did you, (or anyone else), have to cut out the cowl to clear the left side of the muffler, (supersonic from RCS)? Mine is hitting the inside of the cowl by just a fraction. I'd like to hear from anyone else with CG info on the Wildhare G202
To answer Radar's question..... Yes the hard points are on an angle to help get the pivot points close to the hinge lines, but mine were not consistent. You pretty much have to stick with the pilot holes that are pre-drilled. To compensate for the angle on the A-nuts I used small pieces of wood shims cut to the same size as the base of the A-nuts and just made them black with a magic marker. Some people don't even use them at all, they really don't do much as long as the hard point is solid.
