Subject: Re: [RCSE] Supras done
I use a Great Planes C.G. Machine.
http://www2.gpmd.com/image/g/gpmr2400.jpg The gauges are in inches and
millimeters and you could actually put the pointer half way between a
number. I just set it on 92mm because it was easier. Is it really accurate
to a 1/2 mm? I have no idea. But I just got back from flying the Supra in
a 10 mph wind gusting to 15 with intermittent rain and the CG seems to be
fine for a starting point.

Not picking on Maurice or (may the soaring gods forbid) Dr. Drela but
could
someone explain to me the balancing method and tools used to place a CG
to
0.5mm accuracy?
