which could break the 0.7mm carbon pushrod where the wire is attached. Ensure there

are no stress raisers in the pushrod/wire fixing. Make an opening in the bottom of the

wing for the servo wiring. Either use extension leads or solder up a wiring harness

using a suitable plug and socket – a Deans Micro 4 pin plug in this case.

Two Piece Wing Fixing

To stop the outer (right) wing sliding off during the discus launch it should be attached

to the rest of the wing using 50mm (2”) wide good quality clear packing tape. This is

easily strong enough. The wing halves should not be glued together.

Settings Guide

Centre of Gravity

DLG: 78mm-82mm from leading edge of wing under pylon mount.

Electric: 73mm-79mm from wing leading (due to shorter boom).

Elevator (AMT) Travel

12 mm up, 12mm down (at rear of AMT).

No rudder offset required on launch

Ailerons (Flaperons)

Up +20 mm / down -9 mm (extreme throw for advanced user, beginners use less)

Cruise – Lower surface of flaperons down 2 degrees

Speed – Lower surface of flaperons down 0.5 degrees.

Launch – Lower surface of flaperons reflexed up 0.5 degrees.

Thermal – Lower surface of flaperons down 6 degrees.

Landing – Lower surface of flaperons down 45 degrees. Mix in progressive down

elevator, approx 6mm at 20 deg, reducing to approx 4mm at 45 deg.

Use the enclosed templates to setup the flaperon positions accurately.

Alternative faster settings recommended by Simon Jones (measured in mm with a

straight edge underneath the wing in line with the servo/control horn) are:

Launch & Speed = -3mm, Cruise & Normal Thermal= -2mm, Weak Thermal = 0mm.
