http://www.thewingsmaker.com/instructionManuals.php
The ideal C.G. position is 100mm (3.9in.) 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.
If you are converting this model to electric, please move the C.G. forward 10% of current C.G. distance from
leading edge to compensate for weight of fuel.
Measure C.G. with the wheels in retracted position.

LINKAGE CONNECTOR
After fastening the round nut, make sure that the linkage connector can rotate freely.
Drill 2mm hole at servo horn.
Insert linkage connector
into servo horn.
Make sure shoulder of
screw is cleared from
servo horn.
Add washer to reduce
play if necessary.
Shoulder
Tighten up the round nut
against the shoulder. Apply
