Canopy hinge and cockpit tub
The photo shows the gas spring mount of the canopy hinge,
which otherwise is already completely installed.
Up to 1.5 kg of lead must
be glued into the nose in
order to balance the
DG-800.
Make sure that the cockpit tub still fits the fuselage after you
installed all your equipment and balance weight. Cut a slot in the
rear part of the cockpit tub so that you can compress it sideways
to insert it under the lip of the fuselage. A scale seat cushion will
cover this slot and make it invisible.
The kit contains the base parts for an individual cockpit detailing
by yourself. However, we highly recommend to purchase the scale
cockpit available as an accessory. It saves you valuable working
hours which you better spend flying this magnificent airplane.
On the following page you will find the settings for control travel
and CG. Please note that with the reduced stab incidence you can
move the CG 10-15 mm back.
