3. Position the battery where necessary to get the Calypso
to balance, or use Great Planes stick-on lead weight.
Check the Control Throws
Same as the C.G., the control surface throws have a great
effect on how the model fl ies. Too much throw will make the
model too responsive and diffi cult to control and too little throw
will make the model unresponsive. Measure and correct the
control throws if necessary as instructed below.
Right Aileron
Moves Up
Left Aileron
Moves Down

1. Power up the system. The rudder and elevator response
was already checked on page 8. Now check the aileron throw.
When moving the stick to the right, the right aileron should
move up and the left aileron should move down. If necessary,
use the servo reversing in your transmitter to set the ailerons
to respond correctly.

2. Measure the elevator throw fi rst; power up the system
(turn on the transmitter and connect the battery) and move the
elevator up and down with the elevator stick on the transmitter.
Measure how far up and how far down from center the elevator
moves. As shown in the chart the elevator should move 3/4"
[19mm] up and 3/4" [19mm] down on high rates and 1/2"
[13mm] up and 1/2" [13mm] down on low rates plus or minus
1/8" [3mm].
