moostang51 | 18-Mar-11 16:10 | As Poppy says "Stratching her legs". The plan is to add weight to the nose by filling the cowling with silicone caulk and lead weight prior to setting the prop. |
jgood | 19-Mar-11 06:41 | If this is roughly 1/24, 1.6oz of lead (scale weight of the Allison V-1710) in the middle should balance it! |
moostang51 | 19-Mar-11 06:57 | As it stands right now, 1.85oz placed on the cowling makes the nose wheel touch down. Lots of solid carved balsa and sheet styrene pieces were used to the rear of the c of g. Excellent weight calculation James. |
