 5. With the transmitter and plane switched on, 

center the elevator, rudder and aileron sticks and 
trim levers. Use a straight edge to adjust the rudder 
and elevator so that they are in the neutral position 
and tighten the screws in the pushrod connectors.

CHECK THE CONTROL THROWS

The throws are measured at the widest part of 
the elevator and rudder. Adjust the position of 
the pushrods at the servo arms and the control 
horns to change the amount of throw. Moving the 
pushrod out away from the center of the servo arm 
or in on the control horn will increase the amount 
the control surface moves.

 1. When viewing the airplane from the aft end, 

move the left control stick to the left. The rudder 
must move to the left. If it does not, change the 
position of the rudder servo reversing switch on 
the transmitter. When the left stick is moved all 
the way left, the trailing edge of the rudder should 
move to the 

left 3/8" [9.5mm]

. When the left stick 

is moved all the way right, the trailing edge of the 
rudder should move to the 

right 3/8" [9.5mm]

.

 2. By moving the right stick down, the elevator 

must move up. If it does not, change the position 
of the elevator servo reversing switch on the 
transmitter. When the right stick is moved all the 
way down (towards you), the trailing edge (back 
edge) of the elevator should move up 

1/2" [13mm]

When the right stick is moved all the way up (away 
from you) the trailing edge of the elevator should 
move down 

1/2" [13mm]
