2.8 Center-of-Gravity (CG) ___________________________
More details for determining the CG in the empty configuration are described in
chapter 6 of this operation manual. They can also be found in the maintenance
manual of the STEMME S6.
All distances need for determining the CG are measured from the reference
plane (RP). This plane is vertical to the wing leading-edge near the wing root.
For orientation of the plane, see chapter 6.
Location-Limits for the Center-of-Gravity
The in-flight CG must be kept within the following limits when flying:
1. Most forward in-flight CG-Limit:
•
x = 8.82 in / 224 mm behind RP
2. Most rearward in-flight CG-Limit:
•
x = 16.10 in / 409 mm behind RP
Warning:
Operating the motorglider outside the permitted limits for the
CG reduces the aircraft’s stability or controllability. This is
NOT permitted!
How to properly determine the CG-location for flight is described in chapter 6.
