    Why become a Subscribing Member?

    • In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.
    • We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).
    • Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

I am a new Skybolt owner and my aircraft has an IO540 with inverted fuel/oil . The last owner changed the metal prop to a Catto 3 blade unit which resulted in some weight savings. Consequently, with only me in the aircraft I cant go below 30 pounds of fuel in the main tank without the C of G going out the aft limit. I have a rear mounted battery. Are there any resources available to show a forward mount for the battery.
Thanks
