DO NOT try to fly an out-of-balance model !
25- Balance
The recommended C.G (Center of Gravity)
location for the Hurricane is 3-1/8”(79-81mm)
Adjust the location of the battery pack as
required to achieve this C.G location.
If necessary , add weight to the nose until the
correct balance is achieve.
3-1/8”
To get the correct C.G., Several strips of
lead weight were required in the nose of
this model . To minimize the amount of
weight required, it is desirable to position
the weight as far forward as possible. This
can be done by making a platform form
leftover basswood stick and 3.2mm (1/8”)
ply wood. Using 4x35mm bolts to mount
the engine would also be long enough to
mount the flatform. The lead should be
permanently glued on with epoxy.
IMPORTANT: Recheck the C.G. After the
weight has been installed.
Securely install the nose-weight
ensuring it will not come loose during flights.
