BALANCING THE CENTRE OF GRAVITY<br />
An airplane's centre of gravity is designed to be in<br />
a certain relation to its lifting areas and the<br />
<strong>Skydreamer</strong> it is set up correctly on delivery.<br />
The margin at which the centre of gravity may<br />
move in relation to the ideal set up is very small.<br />
You can check the centre of gravity of the<br />
<strong>Skydreamer</strong> by holding it up at the points<br />
shown (140 mm from the rear edge of the wing)<br />
with two fingers. It should then slightly swing<br />
around the horizontal position and not be inclined<br />
to the front or rear.<br />

If the nose or tail sections have a tendency to tilt<br />
downwards, the weight is biased in this direction.<br />
Occasionally the centre of gravity of the aeroplane<br />
may have to be corrected e.g. after a repair, by the<br />
addition of small weights. These should be applied<br />
using double sided tape and should be equally<br />
balanced. A centre of gravity which is too far<br />
rearward (nose too light) will make flying difficult<br />
and needs to be corrected.<br />
CONNECTING THE FLIGHT BATTERY<br />
As a safety measure we recommend connecting<br />
interference. Never attempt to fly under<br />
the flight battery shortly before each flight as<br />
these circumstances.<br />
follows:<br />
- Put the cockpit cover on.<br />
- Make sure that the receiver switch is in the<br />
"OFF" position.<br />
- Make sure that no other model in the area is<br />
operating on your frequency.<br />
- Switch on the transmitter. The throttle stick<br />
has to be in the lowest position (throttle off)<br />
- Attach the battery connector to the flight<br />
controller connector and note the shape of<br />
the plug which will only fit in one direction.<br />
The flight controller's connector and battery<br />
connector should clip firmly together.<br />
- Keep clear of propeller rotation.<br />
- Re-attach the wing using rubber rings.<br />
- Raise the plane and switch on the receiver.<br />
The servo may give a short twitch without<br />
the stick being moved, this is not an<br />
indication of any interference.<br />
- Repeated and uncontrolled movements by<br />
the servo mean that the receiver is reacting<br />
to foreign (radio) signals. This may be as a<br />
result of weak transmitter batteries or strong<br />
