Center of Gravity

An important part of preparing the aircraft for flight is
properly balancing the model.
Caution: do not inadvertently skip this step!
The recommended Center of Gravity (CG) location for your
model is 10.5 inches forward from the trailing edge of the
wing tip as shown. Mark the location of the CG on the top
of the wing with a felt-tipped pen.
Use help to lift the plane from the marked position.
For 3D flying 10 inches forward of trailing edge is
recommended; however, the 10.5 inches is the best overal
CG for both precision and 3D flying.
After the first flights, the CG position can be adjusted for
your personal preference.
