Completing the Model
Install RC equipment into fuselage and connect battery. Attention: On electric powered model do not install prop at this time!
Make sure that control surfaces move in the right direction, then adjust control throws according to values below.
For electric power make sure motor turns in right direction. Disconnect battery, install folding prop and spinner, and secure wings on fuselage with
included rubber bands.
Adjust centre of gravity by moving the battery back and forth (secure with hook and loop tape) or by adding the required amount of ballast. The
exact centre of gravity location can be determined after the first couple of flights.
Have fun with your LT 200 Flex!

Tipps & Tricks
To remove the canopy, slide the wing backward with both thumbs until rear end of canopy is free. You can put the canopy back in place in the
same way. This will make it very easy to change the battery without removing the wing.
To protect the wood against mlisture, apply wood primer to all wood parts and let dry thoroughly. Then sand with 400 grit sandpaper. Additional
application of clear varnish is not required.
Covering the wings and tail unit with Japanese tissue will add strength and provide a perfect finish for your model. Use wood primer to cover
your model with Japanese tissue, then carefully sand with 400 grit sandpaper.

Use these instructions for a successful maiden flight
Maiden flight
Choose a calm day with little or no wind. Hand-start the model into the wind with moderate thrust and a slight nose-down attitude. A small slope or an
unobstructed meadow are ideal flying fields.
If model does not execute a flat glide, please follwow instructions in table.
Safety Warning
Always observe local regulations applicable for model aeroplanes. Also do not fly near airports, roads, motor ways, houses, high-tension lines or
groups of people. We recommend to contact a local flying club for additonal advice.
