[NSRCA-discussion] Zero reference line on the Brio

[Anthony Romano]

Mike,
 
I have the CF version. I know the later fiberglass ones tended to be lighter but unless the wing location moved the cg should be the same. Have to recheck my notes may have sacrificed a very slight pull the gear for a more locked in feel at that cg. Never mixed it out but still have great downlines and snaps.

I shall verify my setup today with respect to the zero line Don references below, but currently, using the stab as zero, I have +.6 wing and -1.2 engine.  I shall check my CG, but I do have a pull to belly on left and right knife edge meaning I am too tail heavy.  Anthony, is your Brio the carbon reinforcement nose version or the fiberglass only nose version.  I thought they had different CG locations.  Unfortunately, flight verification won't come until April here in good old Michigan.

Took my Brio out of moth balls this year and converted it to E-power. After alot of playing with set up and discussions with Brian wound up with the cg just under 7" from the LE and the wing at almost +.75° to a 0 stab. No mix and best flying plane I have ever owned.

I went back and looked at my notes and the original instructions state the tail should be 1" above the work bench, not 3/4".  the directions also say to set the wing 1/4 degree positive and the stab 1/4 degree negative.

I believe with the belly resting on a level work surface, the bottom of the fuselage at the back/bottom of the fin is supposed to be 3/4" above the table.  The fuse would then be at 'zero'.

Happy New Year everyone.  Anyone know what the 0-0 reference line is on the Brio?  It's winter maintenance time and I am verifying current stab, wing, and thrust incidences on my planes!
