Evolis Centre of Gravity

Hi,
I have just finished a repair to my Evolis and wondered if anyone has a recommended C of G as a starting point before I fly it. I also replaced the retracts with fixed U/C so I am a bit nervous about the model being tail heavy.

I have flown the model a number of times but it never occoured to me to determine the balance point.

thanks
Tom

If you set it around 280mm from the trailing edge of the wing you will be in the ballpark.

Hi Chad,
Thanks for the prompt reply. I'm currently at 263 from the trailing edge without the belly pan / 268 approx with the belly pan.
cheers
Tom
