10. Operating the model

a) Inserting and connecting the flight battery

The flight battery is inserted into the battery compartment in the fuselage through
a service hatch from the bottom. It is then secured with two Velcro strips (1).
The exact position of the battery is determined by the centre of gravity.
Figure 21a
The battery connection cable (1) must be connected to the cables of the speed
controller (2).
Figure 21b

b) Setting the centre of gravity

The flight battery must be installed in the battery compartment so that the centre
of gravity is approx. 110 mm behind the leading edge of the wing.
Mark the position of the centre of gravity on the wing bottom on the left and the
right of the fuselage using a pen.
From the bottom, hold the assembled and ready-to-fly model at the measured
positions with your index fingers. If the centre of gravity is set correctly, the
model should be slightly leaning forward.
For the first flights, the centre of gravity should be at 110 mm. The optimal
centre of gravity can then be determined gradually and readjusted.
