Hi, just trying to get the real weights into every item at AirplanePDQ ;

PDQ weights.jpgpdq wights metric.jpg

Fuselage weight seems too optimistic and my plane won't have avionics at all and controls weight seems too high for an ultralight...i have a very light engine ~60Lbs...

The question is :

"Is it okay to put your estimated weight everywhere"?

I don't really know where Airplane pdq puts every CG but i'm getting a too tail heavy plane...so far.

PS: i get a total different plane when a replace tailboom with fuselage lines
replicating tailboom in shape.

Any help appreciated.
