When you first turn on your transmitter, a confirmation beep sounds, and the screen
shown below appears. Before flying, or even starting the engine, BE SURE that the
model name appearing on the display matches the model that you are about to fly! If
you don’t, servos may be reversed, and travels and trims will be wrong, leading to an
immediate crash.
