IMPORTANT - Do not attempt to fly your model before
completing this very important section. A model that is not
properly balanced will be unstable and could cause serious
damage and/or injury. Adjust the battery location or add
weight as needed to achieve level balance.
Measure the C.G. while plane is dry. The balance point is
about 3 3/4"(95mm) behind the leading edge where there
is a panel line on fuselage.
Locate A Good Flying Site
Generally, the best place to fly your model is at an AMA
(Academy of Model Aeronautics) chartered club field. Your
local hobby dealer can tell you if there is such a club in your
area or write the AMA for information. It is also a good idea
to join this organization before flying your model since they
offer liability insurance that can protect you if your model
causes damage or injury to others.
Academy of Model Aeronautics
5151 East Memorial DR
Muncie, IN 47302-9252
www.modelaircraft.org
If there is not a chartered club field in your community,
you will need to find a large area free of obstructions, and
has a smooth grass or asphalt surface to be used as a
runway. For safetysake, it should be located well away from
houses, buildings, schools, power lines and airports. If you
will be flying within 6 miles of an airport, you should check
with the airport manager before flying your model.
A Note On Batteries
The batteries are the heart of your radio system. Make sure
you have fully charged batteries! With recharge-able
batteries, follow the manufacturers instructions to make
sure the batteries are fully charged, especial the first time
the radio is used. We would recommend you use larger
capacity (1000mAh) if you use high performance servos as
they will draw more current than ordinary servos.
1000mAH
