hook and loop tape. The exact position of the battery can
be changed forward or back, depending on what is
necessary to achieve the correct center of gravity. Turn on
the radio system and plug the battery into the speed
control. Use the throttle to check that the motor rotates
counterclockwise when viewed from the front. If not, follow
the directions included with your speed control to change
the direction of the motor rotation.
Note: Never check the motor rotation on the bench
with the propeller installed. The plane could move and
cause serious injury. Always check the motor without the
propeller to avoid injury.
Important Information About Your Propeller

propeller is balanced before installing onto the shaft. An
unbalanced propeller may strip the gears or cause poor
flight characteristics.
Note: If it is necessary to enlarge the hole in the
propeller, make sure to check the balance of the
propeller afterwards.
