BALANCING
- It is critical that your airplane be
balanced correctly. Improper balance will
cause your plane to lose control and
crash.THE CENTER OF GRAVI-
TY IS LOCATED
100 MM
BACK
FROM THE LEADING EDGE OF
THE WING AT THE WING ROOT.
- Mount the wing to the fuselage. Using a cou-
ple of pieces of masking tape, place them on
the bottom side of the wing 100=mm back
from the leading edge of the wing at the wing
root.
- With the model upright, place your figers on
the masking tape and carefully lif the plane.
- Do not turn plane upside down. Only low
wing models should be turned upsidedown for
balancing. Remove this paragraph, it is not in-
tended for use in the instructions. it is a note
for you.High Wing models must be balanced
upright.
- Accurately mark the balance point on the
botttom of the wing on both sides of the fuse-
lage. The balance point is located 100 mm back
from the leading edge of the wing at the wing
root. This is the balance point at which your
model should balance for your fist flghts. Later,
you may wish to experiment by shiftng the bal-
ance up to
10mm
forward or back to change
the fling characteristics. Moving the balance
forward may improve the smoothness and
arrow- like tracking, but it may then require
more speed for take of and make it more diffilt
to slow down for landing. Moving the balance
af makes the model more agile with a lighter
and snappier ”feel”. In any case,please start at
the location we recommend.
- Lif the model. If the tail drops when you lift
the model is “tail heavy” and you must add
weight* to the nose. If the nose drops, it is
“nose heavy” and you must add weight* to the
tail to balance.
*If possible, fist attempt to balance the model
by changing the position of the receiver battery
and receiver. If you are unable to obtain good
balance by doing so, then it will be necessary
to add weight to the nose or tail to achieve the
proper balance point.
