2) If the nose of the plane falls, the plane

is nose heavy. To correct this first move the

battery pack further back in the fuselage. If

this is not possible or does not correct it, stick

small amounts of lead weight on the fuse-

lage sides under the horizontal stabilizer. 

If the tail of the plane falls, the plane is 

tail heavy. To correct this, move the bat-

tery and receiver for ward orif this is not 

possible, stick weight onto the firewall. 

When balanced correctly, the airplane 

should sit level or slightly nose down 

when you lift it up with your fingers.

CONTROL THROWS.

1) We highly recommend setting up the 

RECREATION 148 using the control throws 

listed at right. We have listed control throws 

for both Low Rate (initial test flying) and 

High Rate (aerobatic flying).

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 connec-

tors. The servo arms should be centered also.

3) When the elevator, rudder and aileron 

control surfaces are centered, use a ruler and 

check the amount of the control throw in 

each surface. 

The control throws should be 

measured at the widest point of each sur-

face!

4) By moving the position of the adjustable 

control horn out from the control surface, 

you will decrease the amount of throw of 

that control surface. Moving the adjustable 

control horn toward the control surface will 

increase the amount of throw.
