Carefully insert the connectors into the hole at the
bottom aft part of the battery compartment. Insert the
motor battery in the battery compartment with the
single cell toward the front.

4. Replace the battery hatch cover, making sure it
locks in place securely.

1. The left stick on the transmitter (throttle stick)
controls the motor. The right stick controls the
left/right direction. The small lever at the right of the
throttle stick and below the right stick are the trims.
The trims are used to make small adjustments to the
throttle and direction without moving the sticks.
❏
2. Center both trims on the transmitter and switch
it on. Caution: Always switch the transmitter on first
and off last.
❏
3. Have an assistant hold the Skysailer upside-down
in one hand and switch it on with the other. The reason
it should be held upside-down is so that the sail does
not touch the propeller. Make sure that both hands are
clear of the propeller in case it should start rotating. If
the motor does start, adjust the trim lever next to the
throttle one click at a time until the motor stops. Add
another click of trim to be safe.
❏
4. Move the throttle stick up or away from you. The
motor should start to run. The farther the stick is
moved, the faster the motor will run.
❏
4. Have your assistant hold the Skysailer so that
you are facing the aft end (the propeller). Move the
right stick to the left. The sail should tip to the left.
Moving the right stick to the right, the sail should tip
to the right.
Once the controls are set, switch off the transmitter
and then the Skysailer. If the transmitter is switched
off first, the motor and controls could operate on
their own and damage the Skysailer or cause injury.
