HINTS AND TIPS WHEN FLYING YOUR GT.
Take off - When you have set up your Grand Tundra depending on the ground surface you will
need to hold a little up elevator when taxiing.
Once lined up on your runway slowly increase throttle on keeping the plane flying straight with the
use of rudder control, Once airborne simply keep the GT flying with a good rate of climb not letting
the GT off the throttle until you have climbed to good altitude.
Once you are at cruising speed (roughly 3/4 throttle on 4S) then adjust or trim your Grand Tundra
to make sure you have the GT flying straight and level. Now is a good opportunity to get a feel for
the airplane and see the stall, slow speed and how it handles with medium and full flaps.
Landing - Always keep the power on during slow speed turns to maintain your altitude and not sink
in height. Once on your base leg approach apply 1/2 flaps then turn onto your final approach. Once
lined up with your landing runway the use your rudder to control the GT's direction, use the throttle
to manage your rate of decent and use your elevator to correct the GT's attitude. Once those large
tyres touch the ground simply pull back the power and apply the elevator to taxi back.
Now your first flight is ticked off, check all of the screws, nuts and bolts. Check all of your control
surfaces and linkages. Check your motor and check all of your electronic components. Once
you've checked over the GT then the Adventure begins.
The Avios Grand Tundra is a dynamic STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) RC model. It has the
ability to fly right to the edge of its flight envelope.
Short take off with full flaps and full power will get you into the air in a few feet and get ready to pull
the flaps up and climb out with an unlimited climb rate (6S).
A spectacular flying RC plane ready to for whatever you can throw at it.
