Hello fellows I have taken delivery of a 3W 40% Extra 330 I am am wondering were you fellow IMAC's have found the best location for the CofG.

The current setup on the plane is very responsive and pretty neutal with the plane requiring no inverted down elevator to hold level flight or inverted 45 degree uplines. It is pretty sensistive to inputs in this location as I would expect which makes it a little more work to fly smoothly than my preference.

For those that have flown this airplane competatively were did your CofG end up and should I just leave this one where it is as most people have found this to be the sweet spot.

There is very little mixing required at this location which is great.

I am not interested at all in 3D for this airplane.

Just looking for other peoples experience before I do much playing.

cheers
Derrek
