Li-Po battery installed in the front of the 
battery cavity.

The battery tray is oversized to allow for Center of 
Gravity adjustment. Start by placing the battery at 
the front edge of the battery tray with the connector 
plug facing the rear of the aircraft. Adjust as needed 
by sliding the battery back or forward.
