  • Pete here! Please join me for this weeks Pete's Tips! Here I talk about the Very Important topic of how to Set proper CG Center of Gravity on airplanes. Proper CG is crucial to correct flying performance! I also cover a few basic details in how and why you can or can not just just to any lipo selection you may want for your aircraft. If you have any questions or comments, please them for me below! Thank you for watching! -Pete

    So after you determine the center of gravity with out the battery installed, do you place the battery so that the CG repairs the same as without the battery?

    i have a question regarding pusher airplane propellers. you can reverse the wires to get the engine to run in reverse but how do you deal with the propeller! their are many comments regarding this. one is that you use a propeller that is marked with a "P" on it designating it as a pusher propellers but they are very difficult to find if not impossible! anther is to reverse the propeller and put it on back wards. but i have also been told that does not work. do you have any suggestions on how to deal with this problem. have you ever thought of doing a video on it!

    Great video Pete,very informative and thorough I'm wanting to know how to figure flight times for li-po batteries and/or is there a site out there that covers this?

    yes your tips were good as i am looking to do that to my plans, i do have paper work on this just have to read it. thanks colin.

    great information!!! the CG for the Cessna 185 seems to be on the leading edge of the wing. At least the manual states that the CG is very close to the leading edge. But that does not make sense to me.

    @CaptainDerpish Před 12 lety

    so you find the cg and all you have to do is alter where you put you're battery?

    Thanks Pete what in your opinion is the best beginner plane?

    Thanks Pete. Just in time for me to do some CG testing on a few new planes. One question about the LIPO part of your tips. Often the battery will have a range, say 25c to 50c. The higher number is for short bursts---or is it? Say I have a 50c battery in a plane that calls for a 20c LIPO, and I run it wide open from takeoff to set down, am I liable to overtax something like the ESC, or motor, or even the battery?
    Thaks, Pete--always good.

    Hi Pete, can you do a video or send me a link where you find the centre of gravity for the Tian Sheng C17 you sell?

  • @SK37537
    @SK37537 Před 11 lety

    While flying wont the battery move about and change the center of gravity? Nice videos by the way

    hi pete your videos are really helping me thankyou ,I bought a ready to fly volantex firstar pro, Im just starting out, the plane is really nose heavy with the battery that came with the plane. I will be using your way of finding my cg. so is it ok to tape or stick 2ps each side of the tail ? , theres no other place for the battery to go , I have read my instruction manual but to me its seem strange that on youtube people are flying these firstar with out weights, any idea lol

    Alot of good points there Pete i read about alot of problems people are having planes catching fire,parts burning out,batterys running really hot,and planes being destroyed,this answers alot of ???s you just have to use common sense if you don't know then find out and stop blamming the manufactsure or even Banana hobby.

  • @maxinumarmor
    @maxinumarmor Před 12 lety

    Like for an ex.if it says you can use a 3s or 4s battary don't use a 6s and if you plane is power hunger you wouldn't use a a 20c when it says use a 45c and then wonder why your plane catchs fire but this is what is going on from what i have been reading out there.Thanks for the tips Pete

    Pete is very good, but he should have rethought how he was going to do this training. Too much back and forwardness!

  • @zewill87
    @zewill87 Před 9 lety

    Good video but please learn to get to the point and finish the sentence without adding more and more and more... and getting carried away... What you actually show at 7:34 should be the starting point of the video.

    @WillemvM01 Před 11 lety

    Pete, I love your videos, seriously so helpful and thanks for that... but you need to work on your script bro. You should be conveying the same message in half the time. You run off to details half way through your sentences and then come back to the subject later and kind of steer off the point. Anyway, just some positive criticism I hope you can learn from. Otherwise, you rule and please keep making the videos! Regards, W

      @johnballs Před 8 lety

      +John Ball And one more thing...why are you so ugly? Can you guys get some hot chicks to explain things? I'm not kidding you, you get guys attention quicker if its a hot chick rather than a ugly guy with big earrings.
