Do you change cog when changing payload?

Let say you're flying a big rig and carry anything from a gh4 to a red with heavy glass. Do you make a point of lowering the cog in assistant software for heavier payloads or do you just leave it as is? Maybe use an average? Thx.

I was slightly perplexed when switching from GH4 to an EPIC that the COG didn't really change, at least not enough for the 1cm increments on Wookong. I did notch it down 1 cm but it was marginal. Could be the way I was trying to measure it by finding the balance point but she flies well so seems to work.

Yea just make sure when you have a larger camera on the front, you adjust your batteries to compensate. As long as you can hold it and it's pretty balanced front to back I would not change the other settings.

My rig is well balanced horizontally. Finding that vertical cog is real difficult but I estimated and it's flying real good without payload. I will test this week with various payloads.
