martin collins 1 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Hi guys, i have picked up a really nice Pinto which is built but unflown, i have fitted a motor and am going to use a 3s 1600mah battery. Does anyone have the C of G measurement, i usually guess at a 1/3rd of the way back on the wing but if anyone has the correct measurement i would be grateful...........Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis Watkins Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 If you enlarge the photo, you can see the broad C of G arrow, in the wing root, ahead of the cockpit bulkhead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin collins 1 Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 Many thanks for that, looking at the plan view from the top would i be right in thinking that the arrow is in line with main wing spar?.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis Watkins Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 As is very usual, the C of G is on the main wing spar Martin, and they fly well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martin collins 1 Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 It certainly is, judging by the Geebee behind i guess you must be the person i bought it from!, hopefully weather permitting it will be in the air by next weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuphedd Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I was just helping the younger guy , the brother of the late builder , who passed away at Christmas sell his collection of superbly built planes .. So thanks for purchasing it and I hope it flies as good as it looks Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
