Default RE: CG and stall speed


ORIGINAL: iFLYrc_Vic

I was told by a flyer at our field that as you move the CG back towards the tail, the stall speed decreases. Is this right? This is just the opposite of what I thought.
Moving the CG towards the tail will have an insignificant effect on stall speed; but it will have a significant effect on the stability of the airplane.
There will be a change in stall speed with weight change regardless of the CG location.
