We have been watching the development of this fantastic digital weight and balance meter & Angle Meter from Xicoy (Gaspar Jet-Munts Turbines) with excitement.
As a lot of our customers will have seen we use 3 sets of scales plus an amazing XL program to weigh the model and calculate the correct COG. This enables us to only put the weight needed in the correct place and to get the perfect model balance, improving the flight & finish of each plane.
Now with this new Digital weight and balance meter from Xicoy you can do this at home easily and with very simple visual touchscreen software. We feel this is a valuable piece of set up equipment that will benefit so many modelers as trying to balance larger heavy models is so difficult especially large Warbirds & Jets. By owing this set of scales you can start thinking of the COG during the first dry assembly of the model allowing much more planned installations from the start rather once all your hard work has been done & then adding weight or trying to change the setup.
This new version of Gaspar's fantastic unit includes 3 Angle Sensors offering a simple to use interface showing the angle of up to 2 surfaces at once. Making it simple to adjust the set up of your model.
Now V2 double screw version
