Flight Checks
If you have completed the Smooth Flite Wizard then at this point you have setup for a standard dual ailer-
on, Elevator and Rudder model.
Before flying the model YOU MUST check the control surfaces are reacting correctly to direction
changes. This is extremely important. Failure to perform this check could cause a loss of model.
Rudder Check
If you have activated Rudder to be controlled by
Smooth Flite then turning the model to the right you
should see the rudder deflect to the left i.e. Smooth
Flite will correct the rudder right movement with rud-
der movement to the left. If you see the rudder
move to deflect further to the right then you can go
to the Rudder page (shown left) and
“
invert SF Out-
put
”
This will change the rudder reaction to the op-
posite direction.
Elevator Check
If you have activated Elevator to be controlled
by Smooth Flite then moving the models tail up
you should see the Elevator deflect upwards to
counteract the movement. If you see the Eleva-
tor move downwards then you need to
“
Invert
SF Output
”
on the Elevator page.
Aileron Check
If you have activated aileron to be controlled by
Smooth Flite then lifting a wing UP you should see
the Aileron deflect upwards to counteract the move-
ment and the opposite Aileron deflect downwards. If
you see the opposite then you need to
“
Invert SF
Output
”
on the Aileron page.
