[Weight & Balance](https://help.airworthy.com/logbook-records-forms?hsLang=en#weight-balance) March 20, 2026 # Creating a Rotorcraft Weight and Balance Form ## Users can build a Rotorcraft W&B revision form 1.  To create a Rotorcraft Weight & Balance Revision, navigate to the Aircraft Profile and scroll down to the W&B Section, click the "**Actions**" button, then the "**+ New Rotorcraft W&B Revision**" option: ![Rotor W&B 1](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rotor%20W%26B%201.png?width=670&height=153&name=Rotor%20W%26B%201.png) 2.  This opens up the Rotorcraft W&B Revision editor.  First fill out the Weight/CG Range box per the TCDS and click "**Save Changes**". ![Rotor W&B 2](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rotor%20W%26B%202.png?width=670&height=192&name=Rotor%20W%26B%202.png) ![Rotor W&B 3](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rotor%20W%26B%203.png?width=332&height=271&name=Rotor%20W%26B%203.png) 3.  Next, fill out the "As Received" W&B information from your existing Weight and Balance form.  Please note that the **Useful Load must equal the Maximum Allowable Weight - the Empty Weight**.  If not, you will see an error message and you will need to edit the numbers. ![Rotor W&B 4](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rotor%20W%26B%204.png?width=670&height=168&name=Rotor%20W%26B%204.png). ![Rotor W&B 5](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rotor%20W%26B%205.png?width=343&height=342&name=Rotor%20W%26B%205.png) 4.  Next, you can add any revisions (installed or uninstalled equipment, or both) and click "**Save Changes"**. ![Rotor W&B 6](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rotor%20W%26B%206.png?width=670&height=325&name=Rotor%20W%26B%206.png) ![Rotor W&B 7](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rotor%20W%26B%207.png?width=417&height=363&name=Rotor%20W%26B%207.png) Now the updated Weight and Balance info is calculated.  New Useful Load = Maximum Allowable Weight - (Sum of all Weights from the original Weight & Balance Form AND the Revisions) ![Rotor W&B 9](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rotor%20W%26B%209.png?width=670&height=344&name=Rotor%20W%26B%209.png) To print the updated W&B form, click the Print Icon![Print button](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Print%20button.png?width=64&height=34&name=Print%20button.png) at the top of the page.  ![Rotor W&B 8](https://help.airworthy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rotor%20W%26B%208.png?width=670&height=760&name=Rotor%20W%26B%208.png)       -
