Balancing
The
Model
Balance
the
model
at
the
point
shown.
It
is
best
to
position
the
battery
to
do
this
operation.
FLYING
The
model
should
ROG
on
grass,
pavement
or
hard
surfaces.
Take
to
the
Air
The
tail
surfaces
should
not
need
excessive
throws.
Let
the
model
gain
altitude
slowly
off
the
runway.
Applying
too
much
up
elevator
at
slow
speeds
risks
a
stall.
Make
your
turns
gently
as
tight
turns
risk
tip
stalling
in
any
model.
Don’t
expect
the
elevator
to
make
the
model
climb.
Think
of
the
elevator
as
a
device
to
change
the
attitude
of
the
model.
The
wing
and
airspeed
ultimately
make
the
model
climb.
Often
down
elevator
applied
at
stalling
can
avoid
a
major
crash.
The
most
important
details
for
proper
flight
operations
are:
1.
CG
location.
Tail
‐
heavy
models
never
fly
well
or
at
all.
2.
Down
and
right
thrust
3.
Straight
and
non
warped
wings.

Here
are
some
excerpts
of
Ian
ʹ
s
maiden.
“The
aileron
control
is
about
1/2
ʺ
total
and
I
think
it
needs
to
be
reduced
just
a
little
more
(for
my
reaction
time
anyway).
CG
is
at
1
‐
5/8
ʺ
(43mm),
which
is
3/8
ʺ
behind
the
plan.
I
think
it
could
be
brought
back
1/8
ʺ
to
1/4
ʺ
and
it
would
be
fine.
It
does
fly
quite
fast
and
about
2/3
throttle
had
it
cruising
around
and
looking
really
good.
I
ʹ
m
really
pleased
and
looking
forward
to
the
next
flight
which
will
be
even
better.“
“I
moved
the
CG
forward
1/4
ʺ
but
I
think
I
could
bring
it
back
to
the
design
position
and
it
would
be
fine.
