Title: Help required on self made MOSS Glider. Post by: hangingtough on October 15, 2010, 10:22:10 AM hi,
I have been able to complete my self made MOSS with 46" wing span. But i have noticed a critical problem of too much nose up when ever i give throttle. The result is that every flight i am struggling to control (i am a newbie) and end up losing a prop. So the checks i have done is 1. Elevator checking that it should be perfectly straight 2. CG is at 1/3 point on LE What is the cause of nose up .............. CG or Angle of attack Do the gliders have different CG calculations compared to a normal plane. I think the moss design has 0 degree of angle of attack. Title: Re: Help required on self made MOSS Glider.
