Hi Steve,
Thanks very much for your offer of help!
My aircraft is a Flight Design CTSW.
The MTOW is 472.5 kgs. The Max ZFW is 290.5 kgs. The Max Empty Weight is 290 kgs. The datum is the leading edge of the wing.
(If allowed, the max weight of the aircraft with full fuel (@ 93.6 kgs), 2 x 100 kgs crew and 25 kgs baggage = 608.6 kgs).
The weight is distributed as follows:
Port Wheel: 120 kgs. Position from datum: +0.570 metres (Moment: +68.4 kg.m)
Starboard Wheel: 116 kgs. Position from datum: +0.570 metres (Moment: +66.12 kg.m)
Nose Wheel: 54 kgs. Position from datum: -0.905 metres (Moment: -48.87 kg.m)
Total Moment: +85.65 kg.m
Current Empty Weight = 290 kgs
Empty CG Position: +0.294 metres
Fuel: (2 x 65 litre tanks situated in the wings but considered as one tank):
130 litres = 93.6 kgs. Position from datum: + 0.21 metres (Full Fuel Moment: +19.65 kg.m)
Seat 1:
Minimum Load: 55 kgs. Position from datum: +0.52 metres (Moment: +28.6 kg.m)
Maximum Load: 100 kgs. Position from datum: +0.52 metres (Moment: +52.0 kg.m)
Seat 2:
Maximum Load: 100 kgs. Position from datum: +0.52 metres (Moment: +52.0 kg.m)
Baggage:
Maximum Load: 25 kgs. Position from datum: +1.2 metres (Moment: +30.0 kg.m)
Forward CoG Limit: 0.257 metres
Aft CoG Limit: 0.450 metres
Current Max Forward CoG Position: 0.305 metres
Current Max Aft CoG Position: 0.426 metres
Thanks very much. If you require any other figures, please ask!
