7. Hints
We have a few hints to help when flying the Avios BushMule V2, when measuring the CoG take
some time to adjust this to match your flying style. Moving the battery to adjust the CoG forward
and aft to find your personal balance point. Once again we suggest keeping in near the forward
mark for initial flights.
Another great tip is to balance your new plane laterally (wing tip to wing tip) this is sometimes
looked over, but is an important step before you fly.
Balancing the 3 bladed propellers helps to keep vibration to a minimum, and helps with efficiency of
the drive train. With your Avios BushMule V2 fully built and ready for flight now is a perfect time to
go over your model once more to make sure nothing has been overlooked, check that all screws,
nuts and bolts are secure, and that your flight control surfaces are set correctly and secure.
8. Optional Skis
Your BushMule V2 comes supplied with high quality plastic skis for use on snow and even on
sand. These skis add greatly to the versatility of the BushMule V2, and are very straight forward to
install. They add a fun and exciting aspect to flying the model, please follow the guide below when
installing the skis.
With all wheels removed from the undercarriage slide each ski onto the wheel axles followed by
the tension spring. Ensure the loop at the rear of the spring is correctly located onto the plastic
post as shown. With the spring located and installed, secure each ski to the axle with the wheel
collars. Note, when not on the ground all skis should spring forward/upwards, this is normal.
