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. Typhoon 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 field. Consult laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft. After takeoff, gain
some altitude. Climb to a aspects of flight does not make sense, 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 done,
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.
