Adjusting Trim in flight
If your aircraft does not fly straight and level at half throttle with the sticks at
neutral, fly into the wind and adjust the trim sliders as indicated in the table
until the aircraft maintains a reasonably straight and level flight path.
• Trimming is best done in calm wind conditions.
• The SAFE flight mode switch should be set to Experienced
mode (position 2) before adjusting the trims.
After the aircraft is trimmed in flight, land the aircraft and proceed to the
Manually Adjusting Trim
section to set the trim mechanically.
The included RTF DXS transmitter features electronic trim buttons. The
transmitter emits a faint beep with each click of the trim buttons in either
direction. Holding the button in either direction quickly adjusts the trim several
steps until the button is released or until the trim reaches the end of its travel.
If the trim button does not beep when clicked, the trim is at the far end of its
travel. Center trim is indicated by a slightly louder beep.
TIP:
Trim the aircraft at sufficient altitude of 30 meters (about 100’). Having
an experienced flight instructor trim your aircraft during the first flight is
recommended.

Land the aircraft
1. Reduce the throttle to around 50% to slow the airspeed.
2. Fly the aircraft downwind past the end of the runway.
3. Turn the aircraft into the wind and line the aircraft up with the runway
center line.
4. Decrease the throttle further and begin descending towards the runway,
keeping the wings level during approach. Try to have the aircraft at 10ft
altitude as it passes over the threshold of the runway.
5. As the aircraft passes over the threshold of the runway slowly decrease the
throttle.
6. Just as the aircraft is about to touch down, gently pull back on the elevator
to raise the nose and flare for a gentle landing.
NOTICE:
If a crash is imminent, activate throttle hold or quickly lower the
throttle. Failure to do so could result in extra damage to the airframe, as well as
damage to the ESC and motor.
IMPORTANT:
When finished flying, never keep the aircraft in the sun. Do not
store the aircraft in a hot, enclosed area such as a car. Doing so can damage
the foam.
