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 Mini Funtana is 3 1 /
8
" (80mm) behind the
leading edge of the wing against the fuselage.
Use this CG and the rearward wing position
to the first flights until you have become more
experienced.
For experienced pilots and extreme 3D performance,
move the wing to the forward location. This will
provide a neutral feel when inverted and will
allow the Mini Funtana to really cut loose. It is
best to increase the exponential values used to
maintain a smooth feel. The CG may be placed
as far back as 3 7 /
16
" (88mm).
Note : The wing has two different mounting
positions, which provides more flexibility with
adjusting the CG. Using the rearward wing
position will allow the aircraft to balance at
the forward CG for precision aerobatics. The
forward wing position is used to achieve the
rearward CG for extreme 3D aerobatics.
