I have sold a Purbeck Sailplanes Adrenaline to my flying buddy who has given it a makeover but now we have lost the C-of-G mark. Would anyone know where the correct centre of gravity should be for this sixty inch slope racer?
Cheers,

Hi,
A Question of Balance, released in 1970, is the fifth album by The Moody Blues

Quoting from  the Adrenaline build manual :-
C of g 60mm from leading edge safe position
Aileron Up 13mm down 8mm
flaps as positive 3 degrees flaps as negative 3 degrees
elevator up 10mm down 10mm
rudder left/right 35mm
elevator/flap mix 45%
ailerons as butterfly 15mm

Hi Geoff,
that's absolutely brilliant thanks, I have never seen the full settings before. It will be good to set it up as per the instructions.
I wondered if anyone would pick up on my reference to the Blues, nice one Geoff!
Cheers,
