reviving an old thread. i need some advice on the CG.

i did a search but did not find this post, guess it's just buried that deep. i started a new one in the "Swappable" forum.

any advice is appreciated.

my cruiser...



thanks,

come on guys, need some info on the CG and where you are measuring from. someone out there has to have some info. can't believe that no one has built this plane in the last few years.

thanks,

well, she may be history. tried to fly it again today and it was a mess. thrust angle issues, any throttle would send it straight up, then stall, then trouble to regain control. finally put it nose first into the dirt. really want this guy to fly but at this point without some more info i think it's gonna get stripped.

kinda sad, it s great looking plane.

laters,

jason

It starts at the point (5'35") when Josh starts to explain the recommended CG position. Judging by the light shining trough the wing, it's approx. 1/2" (half an inch) behind the wing spar.
