Weight and Balance Calculation - Part 2 The Balance 

This video is seriously underrated for home builders and aircraft owners thanks for the visual!

Absolutely wonderful explanation videos on the weight and balance, much appreciated! I need to do this to my plane as well, but I fly a RX550 Beaver with the engine in behind me with a push prop, so my question is...would I still be able to put my datum on the leading edge of the wing? or what exactly would be different from the calculations from a tractor to a pusher? again, much appreciated, thank you.

Hi, after watching your weight and balance video, can you tell me where the balance is, and how much fuel is in the tanks? We know this is empty weight, without a pilot, but with how much fuel? I am interested in knowing the balance point that you use when you do the flight tests, within the range of 22% and 33%. In general, you should have the CG more advanced than backward... that's why the question, after doing flight tests, doing navigations, where do you leave the CG? Thank you.

Excelente video!! Justo lo que necesitaba saber, mucha teória en todos lados pero casi nada de práctica. Esperamos la Parte 3!

translation would help me . USA

Surely one set of the measurement should have been a negative number as the main wheels and tail wheel are on opposite sides of the datum?

Hello What percentage is the CG of the wing chord? Have you tried if the CG flies better a little ahead? How have you noticed it in flight? is it more maneuverable? Thanks. Hugo.

Subscribed! you explain things very very well. this took my confusion away completly for this exercise, now i just have to find a hanger for my aircraft to do all this. its in my gaage with wings rmoved for now. J3 super kitten with rotax v-twin 800cc 4-stroke efi water cooled at 65 hp

Wouldn’t arms measured forward of the datum result in negative moments?

Thnk for tje video sir...

Very well explained

Where is part 3!!!!!

I wanna hear more about the wheels!
