XI. Prop and Spinner
Install the prop. As we using Thunder Tiger F-91S four stroke engine,
we would recommend to us an APC 13x6~14x6.
Attach the spinner. Depending on the prop you use, you may have to
modify the spinner openings.
XII. Control Throws
These control throws are merely a starting point for your radio setup
and can be tailored to fit your flying style.

XIII. Center of Gravity
IMPORTANT
- Do not attempt to fly your model before completing
this very important section. A model that is not properly balanced will
be unstable and could cause serious damage and/or injury. Balance the
airplane right side up with your index finger tips in the center of the
main spar. Adjust the battery location or add weight as needed to
achieve level balance.
Once you have everything positioned as
necessary, wrap your battery pack in 1/4" or 1/2" thick foam for pro-
tection.
The balance point is about 5” from the
leading edge, 1” out from the fuselage.

CANOPY INSTALLATION
❐
Since the needle valve was not long enough to extend outside the
cowl, we had to install an extension. Depending on the engine you use
this may be necessary. We made ours out of the excess wire from the
Aileron pushrod.
X. Canopy
❐
Trim the canopy by using a pair of lexan scissors.
❐
Trial fit the canopy on cockpit. When satisfied with fit, glue it in
place with Formula 560 Canopy Glue.
