EPP EASY glier CG

[francis87]

I am using ni kh battery for my EASY glider but the nose is heavier than the tail, causing the CG to off balance.

I decided to add a AA battery at the back of the glider to balance the CG.

Will it cause problem during flight? as in total weight increased

No, in fact, weight can be beneficial to your glider. It really depends on the wind. If you have a brick and very good wind, it will fly. Very well too.

Weight in a glider is your thrust. As long as your plane can take it, just add or remove as much weight to get the best out of the day's wind.
