Center of Gravity Calculator

Online Center of Gravity Calculator

This form will calculate the position of a Center of Gravity (CG) on a model airplane wing as measured from the leading edge of the Root Chord. If you need like to know the % of the Mean Aerodynamic Chord (MAC) for a given position of the CG you should use the Mean Aerodynamic Chord Form.

Enter Root Chord (A):
Enter Tip Chord (B):
Enter Sweep Distance (S):
Enter Half Span (Y):
Enter %MAC Balance Point:

Sweep Distance @ MAC (C) =
Mean Aerodynamic Chord (MAC) =
MAC Distance from Root (d) =
Balance Point @ Root Chord (CG) =

**The Equations**
C	= (S(A+2B)) / (3(A+B))
MAC	= A-(2(A-B)(0.5A+B) / (3(A+B)))
d	= (2Y(0.5A+B)) / (3(A+B))
CG	*= %MAC B.P.(MAC) + C**
