6. BALLAST

 

Included in the kit: 

- 2x carbon rod 
- 2x steel rod 

 
The 2x long steel rods are just delivered if you ask for. 
 

 

You can use these rods as follows: 

 

1x carbon rod

 for 

very

 

weak conditions

 in the front 

hole.   
Adjust the CG of the plane with this rod inside. 

Don`t set 

full charge on the wing at this configuration. 

 
 

 

 
 

2x carbon rods 

for 

weak conditions 

 

 

 

 

 

1x  1x steel

 

rod 

for 

stronger conditions

 

 
 

 
 
 

 

 

2x short steel

 for 

even stronger conditions 

 

 

 

 

For extra strong conditions

 you could insert two 50cm

 

long steel rods

. That ballast weights 

880g 

(+836g to 

the lightest weight). 
When you fly with this setting, you have to take care that 
you 

don`t overload the wing structure

. So, use the 

elevator cautiously, when you fly with that much ballast. 
Remember also that the landings have to be very soft 
with such an additional weight.
