An important part of preparing the aircraft for flight is properly

balancing the model.

-inch (120–124mm) back from

the leading edge of the wing. Mark the location of the CG on

the top of the wing.

Please balance your model while it is inverted with the

battery installed. With the model inverted, lift the model at

the marks using your fingertips, or use a commercially available

balancing stand. The model will rest level or slightly nose down

when balanced correctly. Adjust the position of the motor battery,

or add weight to the nose or tail if necessary to achieve the

correct CG. Please understand that if you use a different Li-Po

battery than the one included, you need to rebalance the model

to verify the Center of Gravity.

After the first flights, the CG position can be adjusted for your

personal preference.

range testing instructions.

2. Double-check that all controls (aileron, elevator, rudder

and throttle) move in the correct direction.
