I have just aquired a completed 1/4 Flair Tiger Moth but without original drawings or instructions.
Can anyone let me know where the C of G should be for this model.
I have a reasonable and safe position from calculation, but would like to know what Flair originally specified.

Hi Dave,
Just checked the instructions from an unbuilt Flair kit that I have and it gives the CG as 190-210mm back from the leading edge at the centre section. It goes on to say it should balance in a 3deg nose down attitude.
RGds,
Dave
