3D Hobby Shop 38" EPP Slick, Build Manual

Page: 45 / 45

Remove the prop and plug in your battery. Center your servos and center your control surfaces. Make
any needed adjustment to pushrod length by sliding the wire Z-bends within the heat shrink tubing.
Once you have everything centered (Be thorough! Check your sub-trim on your radio!) add a drop of
thin CA glue to each Z-bend where it enters the heat shrink tubing. This will lock the Z-bend in place.
Setup values:
Recommended Center of Gravity: CG - 4”-5” behind the leading edge of the wing where wing meets
fuselage.
(This is approximately 2-3” behind the carbon main wing spar. After some flights, you should adjust the
CG (by moving the battery forward or aft) to get precisely the feel you want.
Control throws for 3D flight:
Elevator: 45 degrees up and down.
Ailerons: 45 degrees up and down.
Rudder: Maximum available without touching elevator.
We recommend the use of 75% expo on all controls to start.
