Hi All,

I've just re-done the Weights and Balances with the following results

Pilot and Passenger each weigh     81.5 kg  179.67 lbs
Fuel 42ltr (11 US gallons)         29.5 kg   65.04 lbs
Baggage                              16 kg   35.27 lbs

Actual Weights              
Empty Weight                     241.48 kg  532.37 lbs

Pilot Only                       322.98 kg  712.04 lbs
C of G from Leading Edge            210 mm    8.27 ins

Pilot + Fuel                     353.98 kg  780.38 lbs
C of G from Leading Edge            207 mm    8.15 ins

Calculated Values               
Pilot, Passenger, Bags           420.48 kg  926.99 lbs
C of G from Leading Edge            383 mm   15.08 ins

Pilot, Passenger, Bags + Fuel    451.48 kg  995.33 lbs
C of G from Leading Edge            353 mm   13.90 ins

Now the next question is, I want to put on an in-flight adjustable propeller 
which will approximately add 7kg which will move my C of G to the forward 
limit, 203mm (8in), with only me and zero fuel, Is this going to be a problem?

And what reports have people heard about the IVOPROP propellers?
Are there other/better options for adjustable propellers? 

Thanks
