SECTION 6
WEIGHT AND BALANCE
The following nomograph is used to determine balance of the DR400.
Remember that diesel and JET FUEL are heavier than AVGAS, and they
carry more energy per volume. Because the fuel in the Robin series is in
an aft location, fuel consumption shifts the CG forward.
The DR400 delivers greater range and, at altitude, greater speed, than
AVGAS-powered Robin of equivalent sea-level power ratings, for a given
volume of fuel.
