BALANCING
An important part of preparing the air-
crat for light is properly balancing the
model.
1) Attach the wing panels to the fuse-
lage. Make sure to connect the leads from
the aileron to the appropriate leads from
the receiver. Make sure the leads are not
exposed outside the fuselage before tight-
ening the wing bolts. Your model should
be light-ready before balancing.
2) he recommended Center of Gravity
(CG) location for your model is (120mm)
back from the leading edge at the center
of the wing.
3) When balancing your model, make
sure it is assembled and ready for light.
Support the plane upright at the marks
made on the wing with your igers or a
commercially available balancing stand.
his is the correct balance point for your
model.
*If possible, irst attempt to balance the
model by changing the position of the
receiver battery and receiver. If you are
unable to obtain good balance by doing
so, then it will be necessary to add weight
to the nose or tail to achieve the
proper balance point.
With the wings attached to the fuselage,
all parts of the model installed ( ready to
ly), and empty fuel tanks, hold the mod-
el at the marked balance point with the
stabilizer level.
Lit the model. If the tail drops when you
lit, the model is "tail heavy" and you
must add weight* to the nose. If the nose
drops, it is "nose heavy" and you must
add weight* to the tail to balance.
