Hi, I reciently purchased a CMP 50cc zero from a market place member. One thig I did not get was the information on control throw set ups and CG information. Would appreciate any help that some one could offer. Really excited to get this plane off the ground. Its going to be pulled by a brison 3.2 and is powered by dual fromenco 2600 mah li-ions with regs. Thanks for your time!

Start with CG 5 1/2 to 6 " from leading edge at fuselage . Ail 1/2" up/down low rate , as much as you can get on high. El. 3/4 " up/down low rate , 1 1/4 high , Rud 3/4 " low , as much as you can get on high , Flaps as much as you can get or 45 deg full down , 15 to 20 deg for half down . I am using 40 expo on low EL and 70 on High , same on Ail.
I have the Brison on mine and needed 2 1/2 # weight in the nose to balance with all batts in the engine box . I installed the servos in their rear mountings , you could reduce nose weight by moving the tail group servos forward. The plane has excellent flight properties , very stable , Using a 20x10 thre blade Biela prop it moves pretty good . Got more speed from a 2 blade 21x10 Menz Ultra , but t0o much prop ripping noise .

It's probably the best deal in an arf warbird out there . Cant beat the quality or performance for the price paid.

I must say too that the Brisson pulls that zero like a rocket. Normal flying was done at 1/2 throttle. WOT is awesome. Landing is straight forward. Half flaps put the zero in a bit of nose up attitude and slowed the plane very nicely. This plane is highly recommended.

I need the dimensions of the cowl for this plane. I crashed mine last year and the poor cowl was a total loss. I have a good friend that works with fiberglass and he said if I can get the total dimensions of the cowl he would mold me a much stronger cowl. I need to know the total inside width and the total length. We are making a 3/4" plywood firewall and fiberglassing the whole front of the fuselage from the inside for added strength The plane needs so much nose weight to balance we dicided to stenghten the whole front of the fuselage.
