3)
Install the on-off switch and arming switch us-
ing the hardware provided with your ESC.
☛
If your ESC does not come with mounting screws,
use # 2 sheet metal screws and # 2 flat washers to install
the switch.

4)
Mount the receiver in the middle of the fuselage
floor in front of the elevator servo, using a strip of Dubro
Hook & Loop Material. Plug the elevator and ESC leads
into their proper slots in the receiver and feed the antenna
through the antenna tube and out the back of the fuselage.

6)
The location of the flight battery shown above is
only approximate. You may have to move it fore or aft to
balance the airplane in the next section. After you deter-
mine the final location of the flight battery, use Kwik Bond
5 Minute Epoxy to glue a piece of Velcro
®
to both the top
and the bottom of the flight battery at the location of the
Velcro
®
strap. See photo # 23 below.

When you install the flight battery, the pieces of
Velcro
®
and the Velcro
®
strap will both hold the battery in
place and keep it from moving forward or aft, too.
APPLYING THE DECALS
❑
7)
Using a clean cloth, wipe the airframe down com-
pletely to remove any dust or debris.
❑
8)
Working with one decal at a time, use a pair of
scissors and carefully cut out the decal along its outer
edges.
❑
9)
Remove the protective backing from the decal
and stick the decal to the airplane (using the box cover
photos to position the decals). Lightly rub the decal with
a soft cloth to remove any trapped air from beneath it.
☛
If any air bubbles form in the decal you can "prick"
the bubbles with a straight pin to release the air.
❑
10)
Repeat the steps above to install the remaining
decals. Rub each decal down thoroughly to adhere them
into place.
BALANCING
TOOLS AND SUPPLIES REQUIRED

Straight Edge Ruler
❑
Masking Tape
BALANCING THE OMEGA 636
❑
1)
It is critical that your airplane be balanced cor-
rectly. Improper balance will cause your airplane to lose
control and crash.
This location is recommended for initial test flying. The
C.G. can be moved fore or aft up to 1/4", but it is not
recommended that the C.G. be located any farther back
than 3" behind the leading edge of the wing.
☛
The Omega 636 should be balanced with the flight
battery mounted in the fuselage.
❑
2)
Install the wing onto the fuselage and place two
short pieces of masking tape onto the bottom of the wing,
2-3/4" back from the leading edge, at the fuselage sides.
The Center of Gravity is located 2-3/4" back
from the leading edge of the wing, at the
fuselage sides.
