Albatross
Center of Gravity.
The center of gravity is between 75mm and 95mm measured from
the leading edge of the wing against the fuselage. For initial flights
keep towards the forward mark, this can then be moved rearwards
as you get used to the flying characteristics of the Albatross. The
prototype with a Zippy 4S 3000mah (285g) positioned as shown
flew with a C of G of 80mm from the leading edge and this was
deemed as perfect for most flying styles.
Suggested control throws:
Elevator: 12mm up - 12mm down (Dual Rates: 9mm up - 9mm down).
Rudder: 25mm left - 25mm right.
Ailerons: 13mm up - 13mm down (Dual Rates: 8mm up - 8mm down).
Flaps: 20mm first stage - 40mm full flap.
Exponential: 20-25%.
The above control throws are just our suggestions and can be tweaked
according to your particular flying style but they are a great place to start.
