Doing a moon cutout reduces wing area, hence why Bernie used the center flap.--------Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

The Fuel Tank is in the wing and no aux tank at all.I am going to shim the horizontal stab up in the rear 1/4" and see how tha affectsthe flying characteristics.Thanks for all of the suggestions!taildrags wrote:> Chris;> > With the standard CG envelope being 15"-20" aft of wing leading edge, flyingit with the CG at 15.6" aft is definitely going to be nose heavy. My airplanehas a 16 gallon fuel tank in the nose and when I'm flying solo with full fuel,I have to hold some back stick too. Where is the fuel tank in Two One LimaRomeo? If it's in the nose and you're doing test flights with full fuel, youmight try draining off half the tank and flying it again.

If a board does not have a finished edge to begin with as you have seem runningit through a table saw will not give a perfect edge. One way is to attach a straightedge to the board being cut so it rides the fence then rip it. This isvery important that the edge be true before ripping pieces from it.Or one would run the edge on a joiner first to true the edge before sawing rippingit. But joiners are expensive. If you want to do it yourself go an purchasea block plane, the longer the plane face the truer the edge will be that youare planing.Watch this: you want a plane that size.Good luck, learn and have fun,WF2--------Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Center section half moon

yeah=2C I guess I waffled a bit on whether i'd do the flop or a cutout and this is where I've ended up too. I like the Hybrid flop/cutout idea too=2C but it's too late for me to do that. Cutout it is.Tom B.
