Tail Control Test
Keep everything clear of the propeller before
starting the control test in the event that you
accidentally turn on the motor.
1. Be sure the throttle slider is in the Off position.
2. Switch on the transmitter–check to make sure the
LED is lit, indicating the transmitter has power.
3. Install battery in fuselage and plug in
connector.
4. Move the stick side to side. The tail flaps
should move as shown on the following page.
5. Move the stick up and down. The tail flaps
should move as shown on the following page.
6. The small lever under and to the side of the
control stick are the trim levers and are used to
adjust the “neutral” point of your control stick.
It’s very important that this lever is centered
when performing these control tests.
7. Each flap must be level with the rest of the tail
surface when the trim levers are centered. Adjust
the control lines until they are level.
