Hi Gilbert. Can you please tell me how are you going to calculate the CG on that kind of wing- I have a phase 3 squall project left aside till I get precision on that...is it 25 - 33% of whole body?

[Burning Head]

Nice project Gilbert:cool: With the CG calculator in the tool section...

[drgilo1973]

thnks for your encouragement the cg on this type of wing is calculated from our site ( tools-cg calculator ) the lenght of the wing is 68.5 cm the cg will be on 28.3 cm from the leading edge of the wing

i forgot to mention that i install the gaz tank on the cg so when i fill it or i empty it the cg position doesnt change , and the same gaz tank will feed both engine

Gilbert, how will you keep pressure in the fuel tank to feed the two engines? Maybe from both mufflers through check valves in case one dies? Someone must have figured out the best way at some point, but I can't be sure which way it would be.

[Ricardo]

Gilbert, I agree with Andrew. You will need check valves, otherwise if one dies the pressure leaks via the muffler of the dead engine...
