2. During your first flight, while at a high altitude, turn
the motors off and notice how the SKY ZAP reacts. This
will give you an idea of how the plane will react during
landing.
3. To land the SKY ZAP, fly down wind, past the landing
area a few yards. Gently turn into the wind and turn the
motors off. The plane will start to come down. If it
appears that the SKY ZAP will be short of the landing
area, turn the motors back on for a couple of seconds to
lengthen your approach.
4. As the SKY ZAP slowly descends, use the right stick
to control the direction. The SKY ZAP will just about
land itself. All you need to do is control its direction.
Switch off the airplane. Then, switch the transmitter off.
Unplug the battery from the plane and remove it from
the battery compartment. Allow the motor battery to
cool before recharging. Check the plane over to make
sure nothing has come loose.
Even the best R/C pilots in the world damage their
planes every now and then. In the unfortunate event
that you damage your airplane, repairs are fairly simple
to make yourself. If there are any cracks in the wing or
fuselage, apply 6-minute epoxy or white glue to the
broken area and hold together with clear packaging
tape. Let the glue cure, leaving the tape in place for
added strength.
