GliderCG Family
Based on the original development of Olav Kalhovd, GliderCG is a CoG digital balance device for RC planes able to provide the exact information of where the CoG is located in our glider by through a screen that also provides information of the sailplane ́s total weight.
Simply place the glider above and know your CG, without having to make balances or mark the wings for supporting them in precarious structures.
Once the glider is placed in the device, we can vary the center of gravity by moving the battery for example and GliderCG will automatically inform you of the new center of gravity. Easy and simple.
The GliderCG family was born with the aim of being able to transfer the concept of digital measurement of the center of gravity to the different types of aircraft and radio control gliders. For this reason there is a specific device for each of the different popular disciplines: GliderCG Standard, GliderCG Plus and GliderCG F3K-DLG
GliderCG is not static but evolves and improves in time and the customer can take advantage of those improvements; GliderCG today are much better than the initials ones.

NEW
GliderCG Standard V3
GliderCG V3 is our latest development, New WiFi interface and foldable arms.
Based in the GliderCG V2 platform and with our constant desire for improvement, we have worked on all aspects of the device, both hardware and software, to offer an improved device in a compact form factor for easy transport and storage when not in use.
This model is designed for F5J, F3B, and F3F models.
In this model you can find:
- Folding arms with solid locking mechanism.
- WiFi + Oled Display. We can visualize the data through its built-in OLED screen or browse it through the WiFi connection for those situations in which due to our position we cannot easily access the screen reading. The WiFi connection also gives us the option to save the CG configuration of our different models and check for example the changes that result from a modification or repair.
- Battery Level indicator (WiFi Interface).
- Sliding lid access to the battery compartment.
- Greater stability
Specifications:
- Maximum weight: 8kg
- Maximum fuselage width: 86mm
- Maximum fuselage height (from bottom fuselage to wing bottom): 87mm
- Leading edge to rear support pad distance: 150mm
- Power: 9V DC (6LR61)

In this model you can find all the improvements incorporated in the V2 version:
- Stronger and more robust arms.
- New font that facilitates the reading of the data on the screen.
- low battery alert at the start of the device.
- Sliding lid access to the battery compartment.
- Greater stability
Specifications:
- Maximum weight: 15kg
- Maximum fuselage width: 160mm
- Maximum fuselage height (from bottom fuselage to wing bottom): 146mm
