6. Balancing the Model/Control Throws  
 

At this stage the model should be in ready-to-fly condition with all of the systems 
in place including the brushless motor, servos, landing gear, the radio system, 
and battery packs.  
The recommended Center of Gravity

 

location is 145 - 147 mm behind the leading 

edge of the wing against the fuselage.  

For windy condition 

– 145 -147 mm behind the leading edge is good.  

For no wind condition 

– 145 mm behind the leading edge is good. Please use 

the battery pack, moving it forward or backward, to achieve the perfect balance.  
Balance the plane laterally also, holding the motor propeller shaft and a fingertip 
under the fin post, and if needed add a small weight to the light wing to make it 
track correctly.  
 
 
 
 
Please, follow the recommend throws:

9. Preflight  

 
Pre-Flight checks are just as important for any RC airplanes as they are for full 
scale airplanes. There are very much things that could go wrong during a flight. It 
is critical that you check everything twice to minimize the risk of crashing your 
expensive and carefully constructed airplane.  

Step 1. 

Check CG is set properly. It is always a good idea to check the CG each 

time before the first flight of each day.
