Final Assembly (continued)
Receiver Installation
Connect the speed controller to the throttle channel of your receiver, (not included). This
wire is easily identified; it is the only one that is routed from the front of the model.
Connect the two aileron servo control leads to the supplied “Y” lead, (No.1) and plug into
the aileron output on your receiver. Connect the rudder, (No.4) and elevator servo, (No.2)
servos to the corresponding channel outputs of the receiver.
You must adhere to the receiver manufacturer recommendations regarding positioning
and aerial routing.
We recommend that it should be securely positioned with self-adhesive “Velcro”.
Your flight battery, (not included) needs to be
firmly secured in the battery compartment to
prevent it from moving in flight, (image 48). The
model includes one battery positioning strap,
however the battery will require an additional
method of fixing to provide adequate security.
8. Flight Battery
Because most experienced pilots will have a preferred method of battery retention, this has
not been included with the model. We recommend the use of additional straps combined
with self-adhesive “Velcro”.
9. Control Movements
We make the following recommendations for control surface deflections. Experienced pilots
may wish to increase these movements after initial flight testing.
Ailerons:
10mm deflection each way.
Elevator:
10mm deflection each way.
Rudder:
12mm deflection each way.
10. Centre of Gravity

It is vital that you check that the centre of
gravity is correct. Failure to do so could result in
a complete loss of control. We recommend the
balance point of the model, complete with flight
battery, should be 140mm back from the centre
of the leading edge of the top wing, (image 49).
