Center of Gravity (CG)

An aircraft with the correct CG has its weight balanced on the center of the
aircraft for safe, stable fl ight.The aircraft CG and weight are based on having
the recommended battery installed.
The CG location is 67-70mm back from the leading edge of the wing at the
root and is marked on the bottom of the wing with a raised "CG". Balance the
aircraft on your fi ngertips at the raised marks.
Adjust the battery position as needed get the aircraft to balance correctly.
• If the nose goes down, move the fl ight battery back until the aircraft balances.
• If the nose goes up, move the fl ight battery forward until the aircraft balances.
When in intermediate and experienced modes, if the aircraft CG is too far
forward (nose heavy), up elevator is required to fl y level at 50%-60% power. If
the aircraft CG is too far aft (tail heavy), down elevator is required to fl y level. In
Beginner mode the aircraft is not affected. The SAFE Plus system controls the
aircraft attitude.
