A radio range check should be performed prior to the first flight of the day. This test may assist you in detecting electronic
problems that may lead to a loss of control- problems such as low transmitter batteries, defective or damaged radio com-
ponents or radio interference. This usually requires an assistant and should be done at the flying site.

Find a suitable flying site
Performing a range check
1. The table shows the factory settings for the
control horns and servo arms. Fly the aircraft at the
factory settings before making changes.
2. After flying, you may choose to adjust the linkage
positions for the desired control response.
Find a flying site clear of buildings, trees, power lines and other obstructions. Until you know how much area will be required
and have mastered flying your plane in confined spaces, choose a site which is at least the size of two to three football fields
- a flying field specifically for R/C planes is best. Never fly near people - especially children, who can wander unpredictably.
Finding the correct center of gravity is critical in ensuring
that the aircraft performs in a stable and responsive
manner. Please adjust the weight distribution so the aircraft
balances in the range stated on the diagram.
• Depending on the capacity and weight of your chosen flight
batteries, move the battery forward or backward to adjust the
center of gravity.
• If you cannot obtain the recommended CG by moving the
battery to a suitable location, you can also install a counter-
weight to achieve correct CG. However, with the recommended
battery size, a counterweight is not required. We recommend
flying without unnecessary counterweight.
