Instruction Manual

Moving the balance aft makes the model more agile 

with a lighter and snappier ”feel”. In any case, please 

start at the location we recommend.

With the wing attached to the fuselage, all parts of the 

model  installed  (ready  to  fly),  and  empty  fuel  tanks, 

hold the model at the  marked balance point with the 

stabilizer level.

Lift the model. If the tail drops when you lift, the model 

is “tail heavy” and you must add weigh* to the nose. If 

the nose drops, it is “nose heavy” and you must add 

weight* to the tail to balance. 

*If  possible,  first  attempt  to  balance  the  model  by  

changing the position of the receiver battery and  re-

ceiver.  If  you  are  unable  to  obtain  good  balance  by 

doing  so,  then  it  will  be  necessary  to  add  weight  to 

the nose or tail to achieve the proper balance point.


