2. After attaching all equipment and batteries, be sure to check for proper center
of gravity before taking off for the first time. The best CG we have found is at
45mm measured from behind the leading edge flap shown below. This
measurement is slightly behind the main spar. For your first flight, we
recommend setting CG directly on the main spar (slightly nose heavy).
3. Control Surface end point adjustment
a. For our personal preference, we use 100% travel on all of our end points for the
Anaconda. We suggest that if your RC transmitter has the capability, to use a 2
or 3 position switch to set throws at 60% and 80%. This will allow you to change
mid-flight if you find that you have too much or too little control over the
aircraft.
b. If you are using flaps, you may wish to have a 5-10% downward mix in the
elevator. This will help eliminate any “ballooning” effect when applying flaps.
Experiment with the flaps at higher altitude before attempting to land to see
how the plane reacts to your setup.
As a reminder, please DO NOT attempt to hand launch this aircraft. It is simply too large
and unwieldy to try it.
Thank you for your purchase and enjoy your RMRC Anaconda!
