Default Edge CG..

Just wanted to see if anyone has flown their Edge with the CG further back than 5 1/4"..Thats where mine is now and I was thinking about moving back to 5 1/2 or 5 3/4"..

I know I'm past 5", but don't know how far. Mine will hold a 45 degree up line inverted without any push on the elevator stick. I had both my 1100 ma packs just in front of the rudder servo(pull-pull), and it got a bit twitchy for me, so I moved one of them(4 oz.) up over the landing gear block and it's much better.

Try moving a battery pack towards the rear 3" or 4" and go fly it. I think you would really have to get back in the 6" range before the edge would get uncontrollable.......

I'll try to remember to check the CG next time I have it together.......

Flying mine at 5 7/8 back. Right on the edge of instability....but still tracks true without the elevator hunting for level flight. Just the way I like it.

I must be about the same. My elevator started to hunt with both the battery packs towards the rear, and after I moved one forward it stopped.
