Center Of Gravity

Correct Center of Gravity ("CG") is critical for enabling safe aircraft stability and responsive control. Please refer to the
following CG diagram to adjust your aircraft's Center of Gravity.
- Depending on the capacity and weight of your choosen
flight batteries, move the battery forward or backward
to adjust the Center of Gravity.
- If you cannot obtain the recommended CG by
moving the battery to a suitable location, you can
also install a counterweight to achieve correct CG.
However, with the recommended battery size, a
counterweight is not required. We recommend
flying without unnecessary counterweight.
