Every RC Pilot, including a beginner requires the C.G Machine. No plane should be flown without first confirm and adjusting the Centre of Gravity. A tail heavy plane will crash and a nose heavy plane will be a handful. Very easy to use and setup.

I read many reviews on this and as most reviews are they were half good and half bad. The biggest complaint was putting it together. Well that complaint is mine as well. Before you start, you need an exacto knife, soap maybe, sandpaper or file, hammer and model glue. Luckily I had those before I started but if I didn't I would of had to driven to the hardware store to get them, and I'm sure I wouldn't have been a happy camper doing that. The manufacturer should have included the ruler already split in two (you will see what I'm talking about when you start), that would solve the biggest frustration on the assembly. Make sure you have those additional pieces before you start, if you don't you will have to stop in the middle of the project to run to the HW store. When it's finally complete though, it works perfectly and does exactly what it's meant to do.Read full review

Very difficult to use. You need at least three hands to get your plane to balance on this. It is also way over priced for what you get. You are better off marking the wings with a dot from a Sharpie for CG and then place your fingers on the dots you made to see if the CG is correct. Disappointed and did not match other reviews I read. P.S. - This is the second unit. The first was broken but the vendor sent me a complete new one.

up until i purchased this product I was flying okay. balancing the planes where they are supposed to be with my fingers seemed to work, until I checked them with the balancer and I was out almost say 1" of moving my batteries forward. I fly electric .40-.60 size planes. now less trimming is involved to get a more stable flight.

Finally I found an accurate balancer for R C Planes. Definitely the best choice and it’s not expensive.
