Default RE: Helicopter CG

ORIGINAL: RappyPilot
Where abouts should a helicopters CG be? ... Was just curious where it should be or how you test it...
You were given two options and both are quite correct. it all depends on the type of flying you intend to do. A "neutral CG" will be best for aerobatics and 3D flight. A "slightly forward CG" will be best for flying around and scale-like maneuvers.
