needed to determine where my center of gravity is with me sitting in the Helicycle. The rotorshaft is supposedto be leaning forward 3-3.5 degrees, but I guess I am too light. Installing the bigger back-up battery in the instrument pod does help, but I need about another 8 ibs inside the instrument pod to get the CG where it is supposed to be. This is just a preliminary rough test. The final test has to be done with fuel in the tank and the auxillary tank half full, I guess. Anyway, the hoist works and I know that installing a bigger back-up battery in the pod only helps.
