Weight & Balance
Center of Gravity is located 5 ¾ inches aft of the wing leading edge at the fuse. Approximately 1 pound of nose
weight will be required to achieve this balance.
The CG balancing is performed with the gear up and the UAT full.
Empty Weight = 17.5 lbs.
Full Fuel (70 ozs) = 21 lbs
Full Smoke oil (30 ozs) approx. 23lbs
All weights are approximate.
Control Throws:
Ailerons = 5/8 inches up and down with 40 percent expo
Elevator = 7/8 inches up and down with 40 percent expo
Rudder = 5/8 inches left and right with 40 percent expo
Flaps: ½ flap = 1 ½ inches down at trailing edge from the bottom of fuse.
Full Flap = 2 ½ inches down from the bottom of fuse.
You can adjust these settings to your personal taste as you gain familiarity with the airplane and it’s flight
characteristics.
Flight tips: On Takeoff use half flaps and insure a positive rate of climb before retracting the flaps and gear.
The aircraft will accelerate briskly.
Landing: The Flaps are very effective and will slow the airplane down very quickly. Carry power throughout
your approach until you are sure of making the runway. I maintain about 1/3 rd power until final and then
adjust power according to wind conditions.
Maintain a nose down attitude during approach. Keep in mind the flaps will slow the airplane and a nose high
attitude during landing could result in the airplane becoming too slow.
Enjoy Your flight!
