LONGITUDE BALANCE
C.G. Must be set on thrust line
C.G. is too low
As 3D planes do a lot of hovering so it is very important to do longitude balance to make hovering much
more stable. Try to create a small hole after the motor and on the thrust line. Get music wire or string then
thread the wire through the hole. Make sure that model hangs perfectly vertical as illustration. If not then
try to adjust the location of battery, receiver or ESC to get good longitude balance.
Congratulations
Your done, may you have many successful flights filled with fun and lots of 3D maneuvers.
Thank you for purchasing this plane from Thunder Tiger and we look forward to providing you with other
great R/C products in the near future.
