1)It is critical that your airplane be bal-anced
correctly. Improper balance will causeyour
plane to lose control and crash. The cen-ter
of gravity is locate
11 cm
back from the leading
edge of the wing, measured at centerrib of
upper wing.
2)If the nose of the plane falls, the planeis
nose heavy. To correct this first move
thebattery pack further back in the fuselage.
Ifthis is not possible or does not correct it,
sticksmall amounts of lead weight on the
fuselagesides under the horizontal stabilizer.
If the tailof the plane falls, the plane is tail heavy.
Tocorrect this, move the battery and receiver
for-ward orif this is not possible, stick weight
ontothe firewall or use a brass heavy hub
spinnerhub, similar to those offered by Harry
Higley.When balanced correctly, the airplane
shouldsit level or slightly nose down when you
lift itup with your fingers.
2) Turn on the radio system, and with the
trim tabs on the transmitter in neutral, center
the control surfaces by making adjustments
to the clevises or adjustable servo connectors.
The servo arms should be centered also.
