A short video by the British Microlight Aircraft Association (BMAA) explaining the principles of how to calculate an aircraft's centre of gravity. Topics include; defining terms, explaining the principle of moments, and finding information on aircraft datasheets. The video ends by working through a practical example on a fixed-wing or 3-Axis Microlight.

Excellent. Anyone reading the comments, please watch it all. It may seem heavy going to start with, but it isn’t and is a very clear and helpful video.

While your calculations are correct you go about it in a long windedway. Basically, if you remive the hash line from the box between total weight, and total moment, then divide the momemt by the weight you get your answer. A demonstration on excel would be a lot simpler.
