An adjustable cable attachment system for a VTOL aircraft includes a VTOL airframe. A winch is operatively connected to an underside of the airframe with the aircraft in a horizontal flight mode. An adjustable cable is operatively connected to the winch to adjustably relocate a slung load with respect to the center of gravity of the aircraft to balance the aircraft. A fixed cable is operatively connected to the underside of the airframe with the aircraft in the horizontal flight mode.
