Cub
Need soem help. I have a 1/4 scale Super Cub that I believe is a N'Kon West brand. Is this right? I can't find anything on the web regarding this company. Perhaps I have it wrong. I'm trying to find out what the CG is. I used a Online Calc using the chord and W/S but have to ad a lot of weight to the tail to get it to balance. I'm using a Fuji 32 gas engine.
Thanks
Doug

RE: Cub
Sorry to tell that Ikon 'nWst is no longer in business. Hope you can get the info from another modeler with this plane. A place to start is about one third the cord the wing cord or possibly the main spar.

I have the Sig 1/4 scale J3. Here is a link to some info and comments on it as well as general CG notes. Good luck. Mine flies great with a G23 on ECDI.

RE: Cub
I wouldn't be too surprised if you had to add a little tail weight. The Fuji 32 weighs as much or more than many 50cc class engines. It probably won't bother the Cub any.

Thanks Guys. I have it balanced at 28% which is 4 5/8'' back from LE. The main spar is 3.5'' from LE. 30% is 5''. I have been flying it at the main spar and it flew fine. Hopefully it will fly better at the new CG. Spaceworm your link does not work.
