Spanwise C.G. Balancing<br />

Place each rotor blade on a sharp edge of a table as<br />

shown and adjust so each rotor blade “teeters” on the<br />

edge of the table. If the blades are correctly balanced,<br />

they should be at an equal distance to the edge of the<br />

table. If they are not, apply tape to the center of the light<br />

or short blade until equal distance can be achieved.<br />

Final Static Balancing<br />

To static balance the main rotor blades, either attach each blade to<br />

a “seesaw” type blade balancer or bolt each of the two blades<br />

together through the blade mounting holes shown and suspend<br />

this unit between two drinking glasses. Add blade tracking tape<br />

(from decal sheet) to the tip of the light or high blade until they<br />

each become level to the table surface.<br />

Main Rotor Blades<br />

Firmly secure the main rotor blades to the rotor head as<br />

shown above. Be certain to note the proper direction of the<br />

rotor blades when assembling (clockwise rotation). Main<br />

blades should be tightened so they can pivot when moderate<br />

pressure is applied. Do not allow the main blades to swing<br />

freely within the main blade holders.
