The problem: I cant get the prop inertias in the right place. There are a lot of things to choose in the property panel. I dont understand it. Is this covered elsewhere than in the original OpenPlane doc ?

THANKS !

The plane is now lined up - so if someone wants to do the rest (I could start the next one)...

Just select 'CG' mode in OPS and then move the Interia boxes the same way you move the parts.

BTW the prop inertias don't really matter if they are right on the prop blades or not. In fact because on 3 bladed props the blades are at angles the inertia volumes don't support this is done as if it was a 4 bladed prop to balance it. For 2 bladed just delete two if the existing inertia volumes.
