Making Adjustments to the Control Surfaces
1. Any changes necessary to bring both the rudder and elevator to
neutral (zero degrees deflection) should be possible using the trim
buttons on the transmitter.
2. If you find this is not the case, do not fly until this has been
corrected.
3. If corrections are needed, you may have to adjust the length of the
pushrod by gently stretching or pinching the bend in the control
wire as necessary. You can also achieve more control by changing
the hole on the control horn that the pushrod connects to. We
suggest you fly it first as it comes from the factory and then only
move “in” one hole at a time.
Motor Test
1. Make sure the throttle stick is down in the “Off” position.
2. Turn on the transmitter.
3. Plug the flight battery into the white lead in the fuselage. This must
be done carefully to avoid accidentally reversing the polarity and
causing damage to the receiver/ESC and battery.
4. Secure the flight battery. Gently press the battery pack against the
hook and loop material on the underside of the fuselage.
5. Advance the throttle forward and the propeller should spin at a
high speed.
Caution:
Make sure that you keep everything away from the
propeller at all times.
You may notice there is quite a bit of down thrust when looking at the
prop/prop shaft. This is intentional and is not a sign of damage.
Adult Supervision Required
Warning:
Keep everything clear of the propeller and hold the plane
securely. A moving propeller can cause severe injury.
You will need two people to perform the range test: one to hold the plane
and the other to give transmitter input.
Warning:
The person holding the plane should hold it in a way that
prevents the propeller from coming into contact with any part of their
clothing or body.
1. One person holds the transmitter while the other person walks 30
paces away with the airplane.
2. Be sure the throttle is in the “Off” position.
3. Turn the transmitter on.
4. Plug the airplane battery into the fuselage.
5. As soon as the throttle is advanced, the propeller should spin
quickly.
6. As the first person moves the transmitter controls, the other
person watches to ensure the airplane’s motor and tail controls
operate smoothly.
