That CG point

That elusive CG point

 Start working on it at 25%  for safety

working back on the mac line untill your plane flies

at its best .

 

Elevator responce, and knife edge flight with rudder input will tell you when

you are close to optimum point

 

Cheers

DDRF Sunday- P.Carlisle

 

Hi Guys

Apologies I have not sent an e mail in some time. Really bad windy weather did not make for good flying.

Last Sunday was not really a great day but the real pilots braved the bad weather. Well done boys.

Bill Bets tried to slip one under me by hiding his broken aircraft in the boot while he thought I was not watching - Kamikaze winner.

 

Wont be there this weekend - Sorry Family but see you all the next Sunday

Hi Peter

 

Please pass a huge thank you onto Bill who was very accommodating and helpful when I got to DDRF!

 

Some of the members who were flying on Sunday asked for you to mail out some of the images

 

I will attach some pictures here they small files for email, if the pilots want some more they welcome to contact me?

 

I see on the blog the club has a photographer, does he still take photos? Did he sell images to the pilots High resolutions?

 

If you don't mind please put me on your mailing list

 

Cheers
