combat models a-10
 

hi folks,i have a CM a-10 that i bought used off of ebay,and i am working on getting it back in order after a bad run in with the goof balls in the "brown truck",anyway,i need to know if anybody out there can tell me the CG,and it's location,please. thanks a bunch.

CG
 

According to the building instructions, it calls for CG to be 2 1/2 in. from leading edge. Also you can order the building video from Combat models for $20.00. It's a pretty decent video showing step by step on putting it together. :D

Probably won't fly
 

So does it fly? I bet you had to add a ton of weight on the nose to bring the CG in to 2 1/2" in front of the leading edge?

as a matter of fact,it flew just fine,with a TT .46 pro on the tail,turning an 11x7 pusher apc,took a little longer to get off the grass,about 100 ft. or so,climbed good,only problem with this models design,is it does not handle well at slow speeds,it takes full flaps to land,and it is still 60mph+! i tried it alittle nose heavy,alittle tail heavy,and dead on balance at 2 1/2" from LE. no change in its handling. at full boogie,she flies like an A-10 should,banks are cool and short,rolls suck,loops suck,don't even think about a snaproll,but,the real thing isn't very aerobatic either.actually,it is probably pretty ill handling for most people,i wouldn't reccomend it to anybody.after about 4 flights,i took the engine off,servos,radio gear and hung it up in the garage. it now is a cool static. hope that answered your question. later

weigh
 

What did it weigh ready to fly?
