Note that the motor control (throttle) function on the transmitter must always
be moved to the OFF position as the first stage in preparing for a flight. To
avoid the danger of the electric motor bursting into life unexpectedly, always
switch on the transmitter first, and only then the receiving system. The
opposite applies at the end of a flight: always switch off the receiving system
first, and finally the transmitter.
Check that the control surfaces follow the movement of the transmitter sticks:
Move the aileron stick to the right, and the right-hand aileron should deflect up,
the left-hand aileron down.
Pull the elevator stick back towards you, and both elevators must deflect up.
Move the transmitter controls smoothly at all times; don’t jerk the sticks about
abruptly when the model is in the air.
Please don’t misunderstand the purpose of these notes. We only want to make
you aware of the many dangers and hazards which can arise if you work
carelessly or irresponsibly. If you take reasonable care, model flying is a highly
creative, instructive, enjoyable and relaxing pastime.
Building and flying the PYRIT
Before you start construction:
If you are buying a radio control system for your new model, ensure that the
transmitter and receiving system are expressly stated to be suitable for use in
model
aircraft
, and bear the appropriate approval stickers.
The frequency bands used for the radio control of models are also employed by other
radio transmitting and RF equipment. For this reason it is not possible to be
completely sure that no interference will occur when you are flying your model.
No licence fee is payable for using approved RC equipment to control a model
aircraft on the appropriate channels in the 35 MHz band.
For more information on this subject please contact your local telecommunications
centre, or ask at your nearest model shop.
