Flying

Take off

While applying power, slowly steer to keep the model straight. The model should accelerate quickly. As the 

model gains flight speed you will want to climb at a steady and even rate. F-35 will climb out at a nice angle 

of attack (AOA).

Always choose a wide-open space for flying your plane. It is ideal for you to fly at a sanctioned flying field. If 

you are not flying at an approved site always avoid flying near houses, trees, wires and buildings. You should 

also be careful to avoid flying in areas where there are many people, such as busy parks, schoolyards, or 

soccer fields. Consult laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft. After takeoff, gain 

some altitude. Climb to a safe height before trying technical manoeuvres, including high speed passes, 

inverted flight, loops, and point rolls.

Land the model when you hear the motor pulsing (LVC) or if you notice a reduction in power. If using a transmitter 

with a timer, set the timer so you have enough flight time to make several landing approaches.

Recharge the battery and repair the model as needed .The model’s three point landing gear allows the model 

to land on hard surfaces.  Align model directly into the wind and fly down to the ground. Fly the airplane down 

to the ground using 1/4-1/3 throttle to keep enough energy for proper flare. Before the model touches down, 

always fully decrease the throttle to avoid damaging the propeller or other components. The key to a great 

landing is to manage the power and elevator all the way to the ground and set down lightly on the main landing 

gear. After a few flights you will find the model can be set down lightly on the mains and you can hold the nose 

wheel off balancing the model on the mains until it slows and gently settles the nose.

Repairs to the foam should be made with foam safe adhesives such as hot glue, foam safe CA, and 5min 

epoxy. When parts are not repairable, see the Spare Parts List for ordering by item number.

Always check to make sure all screws on the aircraft are tightened. Pay special attention to make sure the 

spinner is firmly in place before every flight.
