1. Mark the forward and aft C.G. limits on both sides of
the bottom of the wing 2" and 2-1/2" [51mm and 64 mm] back
from the leading edge where shown—using narrow strips of
tape will allow you to feel the marks when lifting the model
with your fi ngertips to balance.

2. Mount the propeller and spinner.

3. Install the battery, battery hatch and cabin hatch. At
this point the Beaver must be in ready-to-fl y condition with
everything attached and installed including the fl oats or wheels
and battery and propeller.
❏
4. Lift the model by your fi ngers between the lines indicating
the balance range. As long as the Beaver sits level with your
fi ngers on the forward or aft lines or anywhere between the
lines it is properly balanced and ready to fl y. If you have to
move your fi ngertips outside the lines the Beaver is out of
balance and should not be fl own. If necessary, add squares
of stick-on lead to the nose or tail to get the Beaver to balance
within the specifi ed range.
MOTOR SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Failure to follow these safety precautions may result in
severe injury to yourself and others.
● Seek the assistance of an experienced pilot if new to
electric motors.
● Wear safety glasses whenever in the proximity of a
spinning propeller.
● Do not operate the motor in an area of loose gravel or
sand; the propeller may throw such material in your face
or eyes.
● Keep spectators as well as your own face and body out
of the plane of rotation of the propeller.
