3. Move the aileron control stick on the transmitter as shown

to be certain the ailerons respond in the correct direction. Check
the remaining controls in the same manner and if any of the
controls move the wrong way, use the servo reversing switches
on the transmitter to make the controls respond correctly. If
necessary, refer to the instructions in the Futaba instruction
manual to identify and operate the reversing switches.

Note that pulling the elevator stick back moves the elevator up
which, in flight, pushes the tail down, thus raising the nose of
the plane to climb.

Also note that pushing the rudder stick to the left moves the
rudder and the nose wheel to the left which, in flight, pushes
the nose to the left, thus turning the airplane to the left and
while on the ground, steering the nose to the left.

Center the Controls

The control surfaces (ailerons, elevator, rudder) are to be
centered when the control sticks and trims are centered. Here's
how to do it:

❏ 

1. Do the elevator first. With the transmitter and receiver 

on, center the aileron, elevator and rudder trim levers on 
the transmitter.

❏ 

2. View the elevator and stab from the end. If the elevator is

not centered with the stab (as shown in the photograph above),
disconnect the clevis from the elevator horn. Holding the end of
the pushrod with pliers, screw or unscrew the clevis as
necessary until the elevator will be centered when reconnected
to the pushrod.

❏ 

3. Center the rudder and both ailerons the same way. When

finished, be certain to reconnect all the clevises with the retainers.

Note:We strive to maintain constant quality control in order
that your new SuperStar MKII Select will be pre-adjusted
properly. Please be sure to check these adjustments on
your airplane as instructed below in order to guarantee that
your first flight will be a pleasant experience.
