The ideal C.G. position is 45mm(1.8 in)behind the leading edge measured at where the wing meets the fuselage. In order to obtain the C.G. specified, add weight to the fuselage or move the battery position. Check the C.G. before flying.
Adjust the control throws as shown in the diagram. These throws are good for general flying. You can adjust according to your personal preference.
