Flying boat CG
The instructions if you can call them that don't even show the CG. The only instructions are pictures which aren't very clear. They do give you a 3" CD disc with the same pictures as the manual but no important information.
This is the Raiden Tech Flying Boat I am talking about. |

Hi Hank,why not ask someone on the seaplane forum? Maybe someone there has the same airplane and can answer your question

Maybe a place to start is 25% to 33% of the wing width back from the leading edge. Just my 2 cents. Good luck.

Actually, the flying Hydro's need a more forward CG to fly well. 18-20% back on the "wing" is a much better place to start.
They can be flown further back but they get very twitchy fast. Larry |
