Finding center of gravity
I am building a DC-10 twin turbine jet and need to find out how to find the CG on it. It is 153" and the center wing is 33" at the fuse. Any ideas other than trial and error?

If you go to the aerodynamics forum on RCU, there is a tools and calculators thread with good info on calculation of cg.
