Step 6: Balancing Your Model 

Check the center of gravity on your model by 

balancing it on your fingers. The CG should be at 

about 1 inch (25mm) behind the leading edge of 

the wing. You can adjust the CG by moving the 

battery forward or backwards.

Speed Control Operation 

The ESC is set for optimal performance at the factory and should not be changed. Before connecting the 

battery, make sure the throttle is in the lowest (off) position. If the throttle is not in the lowest, off position, 

the speed control will not initialize.  If this happens, you will need to disconnect the battery and repeat the 

initialization sequence.

Flying Your Plane 

Before taking off, perform a radio range check and make sure all your control surfaces are operating in 

the proper direction. Take off into the wind and climb to 50 feet to begin your trim out procedures. Once 

trimmed out, feel free to test the performance of the plane by performing a variety of aerobatic  

maneuvers.
