Carl Goldberg GBGA1077 - Manual (Page 26)

MAIN GEAR & WHEEL INSTALLATION
1. Collect the following items:
(2) Landing gear wire
(8) #4 x 5/16"screw
(4) Landing gear strap
(2) 3-1/4" wheels
(2) 5mm wheel collar
2. Locate the landing gear slots in the bottom of
the wing and remove the covering material.
Insert the shorter end of the gear into the
hole in the bottom of the slot, so that it points
toward the center of the wing.
3. Use two nylon straps and four screws on
each side to secure the wire gear.
NOTE: If you desire the tail dragger configuration,
go the the Landing Gear Installation in the Tail
dragger Option section.
4. Install the wheels on the axles, as shown.
The wheel goes on first, followed by the
wheel collar, and the set screw.
BALANCING THE MODEL
IMPORTANT: NEVER NEGLECT THIS STEP WITH
ANY AIRPLANE. If you try to fly a plane with the
balance point behind the recommended range, you
run the risk of having an unstable aircraft and the
strong likelihood of a crash. TAKE THE TIME TO
PROPERLY BALANCE YOUR MODEL!
To determine the Center of Gravity, measure back
on the fuselage 3-7/8" from the leading edge of
the wing. The C.G. range for this aircraft is 3-3/4
to 4-3/4".
