Changing the CG for hot weather????

[Russell Bond]

On a normal type 700 square inch plane, do you need to change the CG position for hot weather compared to cold weather?
I know in hot weather you need to go up in pitch on the prop, but would you also need to change the CG?

[Howard Rush]

No.

[Larry Fernandez]

No.

On a very hot day at a Sacramento contest I found that the corners seemed a bit soft. So I opened up the line spacing on the handle a tad (another great option of the Fancher handle) and I found that the corners came back. Does this seem logical or was the improvment all in my head? Placeabo effect?

Serious question, as I have alway taken your word as well as the other west coast elitests as gospel when it comes to toy airplanes and trim techniques.

there is less air density in hot weather so you may need more input. But c/g would not change.

OK, thanks for the replies.
I'm glad I don't have to alter the CG. 
Line spacing is easy to do.

That's what I'd think.  You are fortunate to have had some corner to spare.

What about dialing out some elevator for higher density altitude? Is that something Experts normally move around to optimize through the season, or do you get it right for your normal weather and leave it alone?
