FLYING
The
model
should
ROG
on
pavement
or
hard
surfaces.
On
grass,
the
model
may
require
hand
launching.
Be
careful
that
your
hand
or
fingers
do
not
catch
on
the
lower
rigging.
Launch
firmly
and
level.
Let
the
model
gain
altitude
slowly
off
the
runway.
Applying
too
much
up
elevator
at
slow
speeds
risks
a
stall.
Make
your
turns
gently
as
tight
turns
risk
tip
stalling
in
any
model.
Don’t
expect
the
elevator
to
make
the
model
climb.
Think
of
the
elevator
as
a
device
to
change
the
attitude
of
the
model.
The
wing
and
airspeed
ultimately
make
the
model
climb.
Often
down
elevator
applied
at
stalling
can
avoid
a
major
crash.
