Adrian Smith 1 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Hi there Mark. I have the CMP Midget Mustang manual. I can copy it for you and send it in the post if you want to PM me with your address. The plane itself is a nice little flyer which I used an OS 70FS in. My only criticism is the material the U/C legs are made of gave way in a short space of time. Anyway let me know, Adrian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stein-Vidar Toroe Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Hi Guys I have problem with take-offs, the plane tilting forward when trying to take-off. I have used the CG recommendations in the manual, 83 - 89 mm, 296mm from center of the fuselage. What are your experince with CG?

Adrian Smith 1 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 SVT, that's a tough one. With my Cmpro MM it was a process of experimentation. How does it perform in the air? Is is quite stable with no zooming up &down? If it is stable move the CG back gingerly with the battery adj. no more than 5mm at a time. I seem to recall mine is set around 88mm. Bear in mind this plane is a racer to be flown quickly so you may need to land her "hot". Certainly take off is different than a normal aerobat as the MM has a short moment so you should keep in up elevator on the roll out for as long as possible and control the tail lift with the elevator so as to avoid a noseover. It takes practice not to jump into the air too quickly and risk a stall, but ask any model Spitfire pilot or vintage flyer and they will tell you what I mean.

Stein-Vidar Toroe Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Thanks AS I really dont now how it perform in the air, since It has never been in the air I tried to give elevator during take-off, but probably not enough. Heard that someone are using ailrons down during take-off and 30% up + 10% down elevator during landing as well. Do you have any expericence with that ?

Adrian Smith 1 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I must admit I haven't used the aileron trick. The other thing of course is to try to fly off as flatter surface as possible 'cos longish grass or rough ground will not help. By all means use a bigger throw on the elevator for the desired effect but if the CG is rearward the tail may be over sensitive in flight so you might want to dial in some expo to soften the effect a bit.
