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 the
Enticement is 3.35–3.55 inches (85–90mm) behind the leading
edge of the wing at the center.
After the first flights, the CG position can be adjusted for your
personal preference.
Control Throws
 1. Turn on the transmitter and receiver of your Enticement.
Check the movement of the rudder using the transmitter.
When the stick is moved right, the rudder should also move
right. Reverse the direction of the servo at the transmitter if
necessary.
 2. Check the movement of the elevator with the radio system.
Moving the elevator stick down will make the airplane
elevator move up.
 3. Check the movement of the ailerons with the radio system.
Moving the aileron stick right will make the right aileron
move up and the left aileron move down.
 4. Use a ruler to adjust the throw of the elevator, ailerons
and rudder. Adjust the position of the pushrod at the control
horn to achieve the following measurements when moving the
sticks to their endpoints.
Note: Measurements are taken at the widest point on
the surface.
Ailerons
Low Rate: 1 1 / 4
-inch (35mm) with 25% Expo (Up/Down)
HIgh Rate: 2-inch (50mm) with 40% Expo (Up/Down)
Elevator
Low Rate: 1-inch (25mm) with 20% Expo (Up/Down)
High Rate: 1
1 /
2
-inch (40mm) with 45% Expo (Up/Down)
Rudder
Low Rate: 1 1 /
2
-inch (40mm) with 30% Expo (Left/Right)
High Rate: 2 3 /
4
-inch (70mm) with 50% Expo (Left/Right)
These are general guidelines measured from our own flight tests.
You can experiment with higher rates to match your preferred
style of flying.
