OPTIONAL INSTALLATION OF

THE LANDING GEAR

RANGE CHECK

With the transmitter powered and the battery plugged into 
the AirCore Module, walk 50’ [15m] from the aircraft and 

check the control functions for proper and smooth operation.

FLYING THE AIRCORE AIRPLANES

Take off (or hand launch) directly into the wind.

Hand launch with throttle set at ¾ power, wings level and 
with a slight toss (it is not necessary to aggressively throw 
this model to hand launch it).

Once in the air, gain altitude to allow yourself suffi cient 
reaction time to make a correction during fl ight.

Once you’re comfortable, adjust the aileron, elevator 
and rudder trims one click at a time so that the AirCore 
P-51 Mustang fl ies straight and level with the control 
sticks centered.

You will quickly notice that the P-51 Mustang has the feel 

of a larger R/C airplane. The airplane requires only small 
amounts of control stick movement to fl y smoothly.

It’s recommended that you attempt to land before the motor 
loses power and doesn’t have enough voltage to maintain 
altitude. If you have a timer on your transmitter, set it for 

4-minutes for the fi rst couple of fl ights. Then, gradually 

increase the fl ight time to fi t your fl ying style. Allow at 
least an extra 1-minute of fl ight time to allow for a second 
attempt at landing.

If possible, always land directly into the wind.

Gradually reduce power when you are close to the landing 

spot. When close to the ground and about to touch down, 
pull the elevator stick back slightly to raise the nose of the 
model and slow the landing speed to “fl air” for landing.

Unplug and remove the battery from the model and 
switch off the transmitter. Allow the motor to cool 

between flights.
