Installing the Flight Battery
Note: Before flying and after the Control Direction Test has
centered control surfaces, please re-bind the aircraft so the
control surfaces are neutral when plugging in the flight
battery.
CAUTION: Install receiver and connect the speed
control into the throttle channel (for PNP) before installing
the flight battery.
1. Turn the latch and open the battery door in the bottom of
the aircraft.
2. Install two hook strips on the battery.
3. Install the battery on the loop strip and under the hook and
loop straps in the battery tray.
4. Connect the battery to the ESC.
5. Move the battery in the fuselage, either forward or to the rear,
to adjust the aircraft center of gravity for flight.
6. Secure the flight battery using the hook and loop straps.
7. Make sure wires in the fuselage do not block the battery door
when latching the door.
Adjusting Center of Gravity (CG) by Moving
the Battery
The CG location is 55-65mm back from leading edge of the wing
at the root +/- 6.4mm. This CG location has been determined
with the ParkZone 1800mAh 11.1V Li-Po battery installed in the
middle of the battery cavity.
Note: When a nose-heavy (forward) or tail-heavy (rear) condition
is desired, move the battery forward or to the rear.
