RE: Cessna 310 Nice !!
Has anyone actually flown their 310 yet? I am concerned about the CG location at 6" behind the leading edge of that narrow wing.
According to several online CG calculators, using the measurements I took from the wings, I get 40% at 6" back.
To get 27% or so, it's 4.5" back and that means some lead in the nose, maybe as much as a pound.
Here's some photos. Excuse the blue tape holding the windows while the Canopy Glue sets up.
Evolution 61's, maybe 14.5 pounds, but that's a guess. (and no nose weight yet either)
