Mohawk
 
Can anyone help me?? I have a Blackhorse model - sold by Hobby People awhile back - Mohawk. They don't sell it anymore, and I need to know CG - I can't find specs on the plane anywhere. Can anybody help? I was wanting to flyi it today - flew it once already and almost killed it - way too tail heavy.
Thanks

Pappy, any airplane will fly well with the CG set to 25% MAC (Mean Aerodynamic Chord). Just figure out where your 25% MAC is and set your CG there.

Naw its one of my two Wing Manufacturing kit P-38s. Both built for Warbird Pylon racing. The red on was lost to a midair in its second season and the blue one is alive and well although I have retired from racing. Travel is difficult anymore. I am the gympy one in the chair.
