Default Edge 540T Red Bull Edition. CG

Howdy Fellas: I have the Red Bull Edge 540T .46 size. The manual that came in the kit is for the 50cc Size plane. I called Nitroplanes & they told me they would send me the correct manual, No Joy on that. Then they e-mailed A link for the manual but I can't find the manual, it's just the page where the airplane is. Where is the CG located. I Have it finished, it looks good, I put an Evolution .61 for power.

Thanks Johnny

You could try PM'ing John here ( Nitrostaff1 ) to get you the manual.

I found that the stated C.G. on the Edge 540T's to be off, so I would not rely on the manual.

The ones I got came in far too tail heavy at the stated C.G.

That is a fairly straight wing plane.

You could use 20-25% of the chord lengh measured at the wing root and be safe, but you are best off starting out with it at around 20% for safety.

You could then dial things up.
