Adjusting Trim in Flight
Familiarize yourself with your transmitter’s
controls and the aircraft’s response before fl ying
by performing the recommended Control Direction
Test. Press the trim buttons on your transmitter to
adjust how the aircraft fl ies.
If the aircraft’s nose drifts while the sticks are at
neutral (centered) and the throttle is at 50%, press
the trim buttons:
• Upper button to stop up drift
• Lower button to stop down drift
• Left button to stop right roll
• Right button to stop left roll
If you press a trim button until it makes a rapid
beeping sound and the aircraft does not fl y straight
and level, land manually and adjust the trim as
described below.
Manually Adjusting Trim
Only adjust the pushrods immediately after
powering the aircraft on, before advancing the
throttle. This lets you make changes before SAFE
has been activated when the control surfaces are
not moving from SAFE corrections.
1.
After making trim changes in fl ight, visually
note the required trim.
2.
Re-center the transmitter trim.
3.
Use a pair of pliers to carefully bend the metal
U-Bend to shorten or lengthen the pushrods to
the desired length:

IMPORTANT:
Make all trim changes in
experienced mode.

Landing
1. Reduce the throttle to around 50% to slow the airspeed.
2. Fly the aircraft downwind past the end of the runway.
3. Turn the aircraft into the wind and line the aircraft up with the runway center line.
4. Decrease the throttle further and begin descending towards the runway, keeping the wings level during
approach. Try to have the aircraft at 10ft altitude as it passes over the threshold of the runway.
5. As the aircraft passes over the threshold of the runway decrease the throttle fully.
6. Just as the aircraft is about to touch down, gently pull back on the elevator to raise the nose and fl air for a gentle
landing.
NOTICE:
If a crash is imminent, activate throttle hold or
quickly lower the throttle. Failure to do so could result
in extra damage to the airframe, as well as damage to
the ESC and motor.
