RE: Top Flite Staggerwing
Randy,
Yes, the manual is confusing on the CG point. However, if yoiu look at earlier postings, you will see that others have used the point where the fairing and the wing make a straight line. They have flown the plane using this CG point successfully with no problems.
If you use a Great Planes CG machine, you can widen it to the point where it is under the fiberglass fairing (stronger than the built up wing) and also at the correct distance to measure the pproper CG.
