Practical advice:
If the remote control used permits, we recommend setting large rudder elections reduced by switchable path limitation
(dual rate function). For large rudder deflections, we recommend using the exponential function.
The following table serves as an indicator for the rudder deflections, with the actual paths to be determined by flying
to match the pilot's personal preferences.

22 / 22 mm
After the rudder paths have been reviewed and set, the propeller must be installed again.
j) Checking the Centre of Gravity
The centre of gravity is approx. 70 mm behind the front
edge of the wing, measured by the fuselage (A).
Support the model with two fingers in this area and lift it.
If the flight battery is placed correctly, the model must be
balanced with the fuselage tip pointing slightly downwards.
If necessary, adjust the position of the flight battery and
check the centre of gravity again.
Weighing must take place in the condition ready to fly, with the flight battery inserted, the canopy put on and
the propeller/spinner installed.
When using a large rechargeable battery, it is possible that the battery cannot be slid back far enough. To
keep the model from being too heavy in front, you must attach a trimming weight in the servo chute of the
vertical stabiliser then.
