14. Control Surface Deflections.

We make the following recommendations for control surface deflections. Experienced pilots may
wish to increase these movements after initial flight testing.
Ailerons: 10mm each way.
Elevator: 10mm each way.
Rudder: 12mm each way.
We hope you enjoy many happy and safe flights with
your new Max-Thrust RIOT model aircraft.

It is vital that you check that the
centre of gravity is correct. Failure
to do so could result in a complete
loss of control. We recommend the
balance point of the model,
complete with battery, should be
75 -90mm back from the leading
edge of the wing for initial flights,
(image P). Very experienced pilots
may wish to move the balance
P
point further back after initial flight
testing.
