No Manual - you have to download it.. nice of them eh? Don't bother downloading it - its useless! I did not even look at it once.

The CG needs to be 5.5 inches or less from the LE at wing root. It flies best at 5" Put it behind even slightly

Throws in DEGREES not percent:

Low rates , 35% expo

A 20*
E 20*
R 35*


High rates, 45% expo

E 45*
A 35*
R 45*


I also did not build mine with 3* of side thrust in the firewall. I put it in straight so as to provide maximum strength in the 90* joints and used hardwood corner stock to brace the firewall and glassed over it. It is very strong. I then use throttle to rudder variable mix to mix in rudder when throttle is advanced... very effective!
