Checking the Elevator (Mode 1)
3. Center the elevator stick. This is the left stick on the
transmitter. The elevator should not be deflected up or
down, but should be flat with the horizontal stabilizer
when viewed from the side. If the elevator is deflected
up or down you will need to push the silicone keeper
back off the clevis, onto the pushrod. This will enable
you to open the clevis up and remove it from the control
horn. Once removed, screw the clevis in or out to get the
elevator to line up with the stab.
4. Check the movement of the elevator with the radio
system. Pulling the elevator/rudder stick (left stick on the
Mode 1 transmitter) back will make the airplane elevator
move up.
