CG / Angles

CG
Do not fly before confirming the correct location of the CG.If the CG is incorrect, you lose control of your airplane which
leads to accidents!
Adjust the travel of each control surface to the values in the diagrams. These values fit
general flight capabilities. Readjust according to your needs and flight level.
For the correct placement of decals, please refer to the box top.
Warning!
First-time fliers should seek advice for hints in pre-flight adjustments and assembly from experienced fliers.
Be reminded that flying a badly assembled or badly adjusted aircraft is very dangerous!
In the beginning, first-time fliers should always be assisted by an experienced flier and never fly alone!
Due to the wing being very light-weight sudden maneuvers and violent aerobatics can cause it to break
while in flight. This will result in a crash and possibily cause harm to the operator or nearby persons. Under
no circumstances should violent aerobatics be attempted with this model airplane.

Before Flying Flying After Flying
Before flying your airplane, ensure
the airfield is spacious enough.
Always fly it outdoors in safe areas
with no debris or obstacles!
For proper radio handling, refer to
its explanations.
Ensure the spinner and propeller
are securely installed.
If the airplane begins to operate by
itself, somebody else is on your fre-
quency. Do not attempt to operate
it under such condition for you may
lose of control of it.
Fully extend
the antenna
(transmitter).
Move the sticks on your transmitter
to ensure that all controls move
according to your inputs and the
way you adjusted them.
Do not fly your airplane on days
with strong winds or side winds.
Always land your airplane into the
wind.
Ensure the main wing is securely
installed.
Check the radio batteries.
Switch off the transmitter.
Unplug the Ni-Cd battery.
Cautions for Safety
Do not allow watching people to get too
close to a rotating propeller.
Disuse defective propellers as well as
deformed spinners.
Batteries and chargers become
hot. Do not allow flammable
materials to come in contact with
them.
Never try to modify Ni-Cd battery.
This is very dangerous.
OPERATING YOUR MODEL SAFELY
Beware of spinning propellers!
Switch on the transmitter.
Only use genuine KYOSHO parts.
Launch your airplane by hand into
the wind.
Plug in the Ni-Cd battery.
If your airplane does not function cor-
rectly, land it at once and find out the
reason.
Unplug the Ni-Cd battery when not
in use.
Proper maintenance extends the
life of your airplane.
Do not dispose of used Ni-Cd
batteries, return them to the shop.
Do not dispose of Ni-Cd batteries
in a fire. They will explode and
release harmful materials.
Beware of spinning propellers! With
some electronic speed controllers,
the electric motor (propeller) start
spinning as soon as the electronic
speed controller is connected.
