Using the latest iPad version. Setting up my A/C weight and balance, everything seems OK within Skydemon itself, however when I email myself the flight briefing, the W&B section seems incorrect:

Looking at the first line for example, I'd expect the Moment to be (1510lbs x 83.01ins) = 125345 lb/ins bit it says 56856. I am guessing the units I am using are being internally converted somewhere and the display in the briefing is incorrect.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Looks like we're using kg for the moment calculation, which won't affect the output in terms of ensuring the CoG is correct, but you're right, it's wrong to have the wrong units in that table. We'll get it fixed, and thanks for reporting it.
