About this document
Optimizing CG for Free-Flight Models by Frank Gao is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides steps for trimming a free-flight model to determine the optimal center of gravity and wing/tail incidence angles. It describes gently gliding the model at different speeds and adjusting the stab angle until a smooth glide is achieved. It then discusses launching harder to test stability, and adjusting the CG or stab angle if the model zooms, dives or glides smoothly.
