Where did you measure your CG from? The plastic wing piece on the fuselage? Or the tip of the main wing assembly? Asking because I am 10mm aft of the CG marks right now on a 2200mah Admiral Pro battery as forward as it goes, when measuring from the plastic wing tip on fuselage
Also i just discovered: Roll throws can be increased in the FMS phone app used for gyro tuning. Extending limits wasnt possible for me since im using a Frsky Rx.
Hi, I measured from where the leading edge of wing meets the fuselage. Not sure if that's quite accurate, but I thought that is what is showing in the manual. My first flight was battery all the way forward, it was safe for sure, but not really comfortable to fly.
@@tomheetderks9997 by “leading edge of wing meets fuselage” im guessing that is the plastic wing piece that comes glued on to the fuselage from the factory, yes? I am going to go on the safe side and order heavier batteries for this jet before i give it a maiden
@@MChronicleSword correct, on the plastic- so the very far forward part of the wing. I'm surprised it's 10mm aft, and you are using 4s and not 3s I assume? Keep in mind I just made small dots at 85mm and used my finger tips so not particularly accurate. anyway, I know I'm going to keep moving my battery back a bit at a time, it really felt like the 80-90 is pretty conservative as most manual recommendations are. If it helps, I just measured the front of my battery and it is 18mm back from the very front edge of the plywood tray glued to the fuselage. You should be more than good with a admiral pro 2200 4s, but obviously do what you think is best. Hope you have a great maiden flight!
Sweet jet. Is the "shock" really useful or just a cool addition?
Thanks, it is a bit tight, so not sure yet how effective it will be, but could potentially help with rough runway surface, or hard landing
@@tomheetderks9997 neat that it has the potential to be useful. Happy flying Bud.

@@MChronicleSword cool, I didn't know about that, will have to check it out- thanks!
