3. To land the Micro Albatros, fl y downwind (or the
direction opposite your landing direction), past the landing
area. Gently turn into the wind (or onto your fi nal approach)
and gradually reduce the throttle so that the airplane
starts to slow into a smooth descent. Adjust the throttle
to maintain the glideslope.
❏
4. Just before touchdown, at about 6 inches [15cm]
above the ground, move the throttle control stick all the
way down and apply some up elevator (right control stick
down) to land the Micro Albatros safely on the landing
gear and tail skid.
❏
5. When the transmitter battery power gets low (4.5V),
the transmitter will beep once every two seconds. When
this happens, it’s time to land your Micro Albatros. Replace
the transmitter batteries with fresh alkaline batteries.
CAUTION: If, during a rough landing, the propeller
on the Micro Albatros should become jammed and
cannot rotate with the throttle in the run position,
the battery and airplane electronics could become
damaged. Immediately lower the throttle to stop
the motor.
AFTER the FLIGHT
Disconnect and remove the battery from the airplane.
Then, switch the transmitter off. Allow the motor and
battery to cool before recharging. Check the airplane over
to make sure nothing has come loose or may be damaged.
Check the wing strut and landing gear attachment points
for security, and the elevator and rudder control horns.
BINDING the TRANSMITTER
to the MODEL
If the model does not respond to control inputs when you
power it up, the transmitter (Tx) may have lost
communication with the receiver (Rx). To bind the model
to a specifi c Tx, please follow these instructions.
❏
1. Move the throttle stick all the way down to the OFF
position. Turn on the transmitter.
❏
2. Hold the model and stay clear of the propeller.
Connect the LiPo battery to the model.
❏
3. Press and hold the center of the throttle trim rocker
button at the green dot labeled on the transmitter. You
will hear a series of beeps until you hear one long beep.
Release the button.
❏
4. Your model should now be bound to the transmitter.
Check the control directions
