dowels on the tape strips on the bottom of the wing. If
necessary, remove the wing to adjust the location of the
battery so the Rifl e balances at the middle marks 1-3/16"
[30mm] from the leading edge of the wing. NOTE: The Rifl e
fl ies well balanced anywhere between the forward and aft
balance marks, but for initial fl ights we advise beginning at
the recommended point.

the Rifl e to balance, remove the wing and mark the battery
location so it will be repeatable out at the fl ying fi eld.
