hello,

does anyone knows the C.G. of "old" BVM - BOBCAT ?
I dont know if is XL or balsa BOBCAT, the year of kit is 2002.

thank's in advance

Jose

There is a 1/16" factory drilled hole drilled through the bottom of each boom which denotes the CG position. The holes are present on the XL and the Standard versions..
With the landing gear down, full UAT, empty fuel tanks, the model should balance at that spot. The nose can drop very slightly at that position. (This is from the manual).
When you find the holes, install a #2 button head cap screw in each hole so you can find the CG easier next time.
This is a good starting point

Thank's Harley, about the info, this is an old BOBCAT that flew in 2002 Florida Jets, and, flying since then.
The only modification that we made, is assemble an new P90RXI.

thanx again

Jose

Good luck with your new engine.
It should have sparkling performance with that engine.

Hi Harley,

the BOBCAT was flew maiden flight yesterday, absolutely amazing, solid like a rock, fast, very, very fast ( P90RXI ), but only one more doubt : the approximation for landing in the final, he flapped, we had an crosswind about 8 ~ 11 mph, this attitude is correct ?

thanks in advance

Jose
