Step 7: Applying the Decals

❑ Using a clean cloth, wipe the airframe down completely to remove dust, debris and oil.

❑ Working with one decal at a time, use a pair of scissors and carefully cut out the decal along its outer edges.

❑ Remove the protective backing from the decal and stick the decal to the airplane. (Use the box cover photos to

position the decals.) Lightly rub the decal with a soft cloth to remove any trapped air from beneath it.

☞

If any air bubbles form under the decal you can "prick" the bubbles with a straight pin to release the air.

❑ Repeat the procedures above to install the remaining decals. Rub each decal down thoroughly to adhere it into place.

SECTION 27: BALANCING THE P-47 THUNDERBOLT

YOU'LL NEED THE FOLLOWING SUPPLIES:

❑ # 2 Phillips Head Screwdriver

❑ Ruler

❑ Masking Tape

IMPORTANT

It is critical that your airplane be balanced correctly. Improper balance will cause your airplane to lose control and crash!

Center of Gravity Location:

4-1/4" back from the leading edge of the wing, at the fuselage sides.

WARNING

This location is recommended for initial test flying. The C.G. can be moved fore or aft up to 1/2", but it is not

recommended that the C.G. be located any farther back than 4-3/4".

☞

Always balance the airplane with the fuel tank empty.

❑ Install the wing onto the fuselage and apply two short pieces of masking tape onto the top of the wing, 4-1/4" back

from the leading edge, at the fuselage sides.

❑ Turn the airplane upside down, place your fingers on the masking tape, and carefully lift the airplane. If the nose of

the airplane falls, the airplane is nose heavy. To correct this, move the battery pack and/or receiver back far enough to

bring the airplane into balance. If the tail of the airplane falls, the airplane is tail heavy. To correct this, move the battery

pack and/or receiver forward enough to bring the airplane into balance. When balanced correctly, the airplane should sit

level or slightly nose down when you lift it up with your fingers at the C.G. location.

☞

Once you have flown and become familiar with the flight characteristics of the airplane, the C.G. can be moved fore

or aft up to 1/2" in either direction to change the flight performance. Moving the C.G. back will cause the airplane to be

more responsive, but less stable. Moving the C.G. forward will cause the airplane to be more stable, but less responsive.

Do not fly the airplane beyond the recommended balance range or an uncontrollable crash could

result!
