Hi guys,

I am going crazy over the W&B. Feeling extremely stupid again... I have a W&B chart from the shop and tried to enter it into sky demon but for some reason it doesn't work as I am always out of the envelope. Can anyone give me a hint what I am doing wrong or what I would have to change?

Thanks and BR
Constantin

I can only think that you’ve input the basic empty weight and lever arm of your aircraft incorrectly. The numbers above would indicate that it has a basic empty weight of around 2450lb. Is that correct?

Thanks. I indeed oversaw a major mistake of the basic arm and even the empty weight wasn't fully correct. Thanks for pointing at the relevant fields. It seems to work now.
