SETTING CG ON YOUR RC PLANE RCTWINS

[@jugnoo_official9438]

hi sir i need yur help actually i have build a rc plane but its tale is too heavy but i dont have enough margin to add more weight because this could be a cause of under power motor

[@rctwins7913]

if it is possible to move the wing back toward the tail, this may work, also some airfoils have a more gradual slope, if you find the thickest part of the wing and set the CG just ahead of that.

Thank you very much for your interest in our channel!!

Can you do a CG with fuel or without fuel?

[@rctwins7913]

It should be with fuel, however...the tank should be positioned near the CG so that the CG does not change as fuel burns

@@rctwins7913 Thank you! I did my cg without fuel and I will do a cg with fuel.

As a noob, it would have been nice if you showed how to actually check and set the CG too. Still very useful info though 👍

Ive been flying for decades and this was a good reminder, especially balancing low wing aircraft inverted, but...you did lose me when you stated that some airfoils leading edge can be ahead of the root of the wing? what would be an example of that??...I just cant see a leading edge ahead of the root, the bottom and top of the airfoil intersect at the leading edge, and the same applies to the trailing edge...please clarify, thanks for the video, nice job!!

A Westland Lysander would be one, its rare, thanks for watching!!
