THE CENTER OF GRAVITY IS LOCATED
95-100mm BACK FROM THE LEADING EDGE
OF THE WING, AT THE FUSELAGE.
2. Mount the wing to the fuselage. Using a couple
of pieces of masking tape, place them on the
top side of the wing 95-100mm back from the
leading edge, at the fuselage sides.
3. 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 fuselage under
the horizontal stabilizer. If the tail of the plane
falls, the plane is tail heavy. To correct this,
move the battery and receiver forward or if this
is not possible, stick weight into the firewall.
When balanced correctly, the airplane should
sit level or slightly nose down when you lift it up
with your fingers.
BALANCING
1. It is critical that your airplane be balanced
correctly. Improper balance will cause your
plane to lose control and crash.
LATERAL BALANCE
After you have balanced a plane on the C.G.
You should laterally balance it. Doing this will
help the airplane track straighter
1. Turn the airplane upside down. Attach one loop
of heavy string to the engine crankshaft and
one to the tail wheel wire. With the wings level,
carefully lift the airplane by the string. This may
require two people to make it easier.
2. If one side of the wing fall, that side is heavier
than the opposite. Add small amounts of lead
weight to the bottom side of the lighter wing
half's wing tip. Follow this procedure until the
wing stays level when you lift the airplane.
CONTROL THROWS
1. We highly recommend setting up a plane using
the control throws listed.
2. The control throws should be measured at the
widest point of each control surface.
3. Check to be sure the control surfaces move in
the correct directions.
