Dihedral (with one side of wing flat and the other end up, measured
up to the fattest part of wing bottom at tip): approx. 1-15/16"
Incidence with stabilizer at zero-
Wing root: +1/4 degree (plus or minus 1/4 degree)
Wing tips: -1 degree (plus or minus 1/4 degree)
Engine: +2 degree down thrust and 1.2 degree right thrust (This
can vary because of the two-piece engine mount.)
Center of Gravity: 97mm (3-13/16") behind the leading edge of the
wing where it meets the fuselage.
Center of Gravity Range: 7mm (9/32") forward or 8mm (5/16") back
Note
o Not, At Any Time, balance your aircraft outside this range.
Control Throws- High Rate Low Rate
Ailerons: Up & Down 3/8" (10mm) 1/4" (6mm)
Elevator: Up & Down 3/8" (10mm) 1/4" (6mm)
Rudder: Left & Right 1-3/16" (30mm) 3/4" (20mm)
REQUIRES: Engine: .40-.46 (2-stroke) OR .48-.53 (4-stroke)
I had a saito 72 on mine-very slow vertical. I now have a saito 91, is much better but still want a little more.

Forgot to mention, If you haven't flown it yet to stick with the above elev throws. I got this from towers site. Also keep some speed when landing- to slow and it will tip stall rather quickly. I really like the way mine flys. My tank(14 oz) is on the cg which is balanced right a four, with saito 91. Ordered a ys 91 fz last friday for it. Good luck...........dave

dave, what did your plane weigh? i put a 70 os surpass in it and its about 6.2lbs. its also set up for 3d but might be to heavy. did you have to use a pump with the fuel tank that far back. mines not even coming close to were the cg suppost to be even with the 70 how was yours. did you have to add nose weight. this a very nice looking plane.

I have never tried to weigh it, I dont have a good scale. I had to add some nose weight with the saito 72 but was able to take some off with the saito 91. The ys is weighs a little more so maybe I can remove all of it when it gets here. I am using a cline regulator with the tank at the cg. I feel this is one of the best rc products I've ever bought. Once setup, which is easy, I have'nt had to touch them. I own two. If you want to keep the plane looking good, put some clear monocoat over the diamonds or they will eventually fall off. I dont do much 3D, dont really know how, but I want enough power to get out of a low torque roll gone bad:-(........Dave

How did the Saito 91 fit in the cowl? Did you guys use the stock engine mount? Any other hardware that you found wasn't good enough? Any more updates as to flying performance would be apreciated!
