G-Trick 90 CG? Throws?
 
I have a Kyosho G-Trick 90 that is ready for balancing and radio set-up. I was not able to get the manual with this model, so I was looking for some insight. With a little math and some throw eyeballing....I know it will be setup fine for initial flights.
I would hate to waste my time on the conservative side.....and just start with Naruke's recomended CG and throws.
I have the Giles, and the airplane is flawless with the aft recomended CG location.

Thanks for your time guys.

CG - 165mm from LE. Manual does not specify, but I assume it means at the fuse side.

Elevator throw - 14mm low rate/40mm high rate each side of center. Measured at the inboard tip of the elevator counterbalance.

Aileron throw - 16mm low rate/23mm high rate each side of center. Measured at the inboard tip of the aileron TE.

Rudder - 40mm low rate/60mm high rate each side of center. Measured at the forward tip of the rudder counter-balance.

If you want, the manual is available on-line from Kyosho's Japanese website (don't worry, it has English in it also):

I've flown this beauty for a while now. crashed 3 gtricks, the first being the original kyosho thing n the rest including the 4th one i'm flying, all being custom made with a lighter wing loading. Its a precise, maneouverable and aesthetically designed machine. btw, what engine r u planning on using? whats ur all-up weight?

as far as the throws are concerned, make sure u dont hv any gaps in the hingeline, otherwise a higher throw angle will be required. otherwise, stick with the manual instructed throws.

In case of further questions regarding the aircraft , u can email me at [email protected] or PM me.
