RE: 86" Progress Reports
EMVIN - I know what you mean. Weather here in Dayton is unreal....it is winter is all over again.
Tonight, I did final measurements: CG and overall weight. Final weight is 16lbs-1oz, less fuel. I could easily be under 16lbs but 15.5lbs is out-of-the-question for me. Had I not put in dual regulators and batteries it would have been possible. Am I concerned? Not at all.
I did "nail" the CG. Mine came out exactly at 188mm. I am happy about this as I always have problems getting the CG right.
Overall, I am pretty happy with the build, quality, and final result. Looking forward to that first flight but it might be awhile.
