So I've got an IO360 L2A hanging on the mount and I'm going with a fixed pitch prop so I'm going to probably be a bit aft on the CG.
So I'm thinking I need to get about 50 lbs FF. I have a few ideas.
The L2A engine has the mounting block on the front for the governor so I thought I might mill a steel block to hang there. Might get 10 lbs. I also figure I can get about 20 more lbs by steel plates on the inner firewall. I'm thinking that's probably close enough. We'll see when it's on the scales.
I'd love to hear some ideas from anyone that has done something similar or has needed to add some weight up front.
Thanks
