Hey guys

I'm looking for information on the newer round carbon spar version of this jet, I just brought one used and I have no CG info for it.

I know it probably exists here but all I seem to find is info on the older aluminum spar, I guess on that one the factory recommended starting point was on the spar, is it the same for the round carbon spar one?

thanks

GIOMBO are you sure the C of G is at 12mm. This does not sound rite to me.

I was more thinking around 120mm from the leading edge. Can you confirm this please.

GIOMBO

I balanced all the carbon sparred f-18c's I had right at the front edge of the spar.

I haven't had an F-18 for a while, I can't remember if the throws are too sensitive, but don't forget to use alot of flaps for take off. If in doubt, just use landing flaps.

If you don't, it will HOP off the tarmac.
