fly boy3 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Hi all, Ihave mislaid this plan somehow. I would like to know CoG position, and control surface throws. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Eirik Skogstad 2 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Hi, i am new.. I has Maricardo , the CoG is in the center of the support beam to the main wing and up to 0.5 cm in front of the support beam, balance with empty fueltank. The surface throw: Aileron - 1/4", elevator - 1/2", rudder 1" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Grant 1 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I have a copy of the Paul Strawson updated plan which shows the CoG 82mm from the leading edge. When measured onto the wing rib it puts it right on the front of the front spar. Controls listed on the plan are - Rudder 1"each way Elevators 1/2'each way Ailerons 1/4'' each way. Hope this makes sense. If not let me know and I'll post photos of the relevant parts of the plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
