Hello Darryl. Just curious on your W/B details? If yo can share these with me that would be great!

Great job with the aircraft!

Re: Mirko.

Hi Darryl. Interesting figures, very similar to mine. Bottom line we are both AFT heavy. Your C.G with little or none fuel with 2 occupants(approx. 85kg each) is at 466, which is very dangerous especially in a stall situation with no power. Please email me you phone details to mirko@bytecorp.com.au to discuss further if you wish. As I believe the Jabiru engine mount has been calculated incorrectly - too short. My details - see below;

Left wheel = 130.5

Right Wheel = 136.5

Nose  = 90.5

C.G  = 350.4

empty  =  358

Bye.

I have a friend who is a aeronautics engineer and we are trying to come up with a   solution, which I'll post when able. Enjoy the trip!

P.S Jabiru - does not recommend mounting any counter weight on the engine itself - you will need to mount this on the bottom half of cowling!
