CENTER OF GRAVITY

An important part of preparing the aircraft for fl ight is properly balancing the model. The Center of Gravity range
supplied here is a guideline based on testing. Deviation from the measurements we provide is possible and may result
in a model that suits your fl ying style better. Start with the recommended Center of Gravity, then feel free to experiment
with different balance points. We advise adjusting progressively and cautiously.
1. Attach the wing panels to the fuselage. Make sure to connect the leads from the aileron and fl aps to the
appropriate leads from the receiver. Make sure the leads are not exposed outside the fuselage before tightening
the wing bolts. Your model should be fl ight-ready before balancing.
2. The recommended Center of Gravity (CG) location for your model is 4
edge of the wing for sport fl ying.
3. When balancing your model, make sure it is assembled and ready for fl ight. Support the plane inverted at the
marks made on the wing with your fi ngers or a commercially available balancing stand.
 The overall CG range for this model is 3
1 / –5 inches (88.9–127mm). We recommend starting
2
at the measurement listed above, then adjusting to suit your particular flying style.
 Nose weight may be required when using lighter weight engines. Move the batteries as far forward in
the fuselage to help reduce the amount of weight required.
may require up to 12 ounces (340g) of additional nose weight to properly balance this model.
CAUTION: You must adjust your aircraft's center of
gravity and balance your model properly before attempting fl ights.

CONTROL THROWS

1. Turn on the transmitter and receiver of your model. Check the movement of the rudder using the transmitter.
When the stick is moved to the right, the rudder should also move right. Reverse the direction of the servo at the
transmitter if necessary.
2. Check the movement of the elevator with the radio system. Moving the elevator stick toward the bottom of the
transmitter will make the airplane elevator move up.
3. Check the movement of the ailerons with the radio system. Moving the aileron stick to the right will make the
right aileron move up and the left aileron move down.
4. Use a ruler to adjust the throw of the elevator, ailerons and rudder.

These are general guidelines for general sport and aerobatic fl ying from our own fl ight tests. You can experiment with
higher or lower rates to match your preferred style of fl ying.
Travel Adjust and Sub-Trims are not listed and should be adjusted according to each individual model and preference.
Always install the control horns 90 degrees to the servo center line. Use sub-trim as a last resort to center the servos.
Always re-bind the radio system once all the control throws are set to keep the servos from moving to their endpoints
until the transmitter and receiver connect.
