Default The Saphir 120

Hi all,

I just got me a Saphir for 120 4C, from a friend. the problem is there are no manuals. And i can't determine what company it's made from.

I tried looking into the internet, without any luck.


any one can help?

Thanks
Moe

Hi Moe !
if u look at this pic you can get a cg to start with ..but....u need to fly it and see how it does!
if u let the engine trust i think it was about 2-3 deegreds to right and 1-2 deedreds down .
but this is just some u start with and u most likely have to adjust!
weigth...as low as u can get it!!

Hi Rune,
Thnaks for the input... You're right about the CG the best bet is 25% from the leading edge.

2-3 degrees to the right is i think the safest bet for the right side thrust. but i dont think 1-2 dgrees downthrust is wise with a patteren-ship.

trail N error is the final RULE

Thanks again
Moe
