Nose Gear Centering
Observe the following steps to fine tune the nose gear neutral position.
1. With the radio control system powered on, the rudder centered, and the rudder
trim centered, check that the nose gear is centered.
Tip:
The best way to check that the nose gear and rudder are centered is by rolling
the model on a smooth surface.
2. To make adjustments, remove the servo hatch on the bottom of the fuselage.
The hatch is held with two magnets in the front and a tab in the rear.
3. Fine-tune the nose gear position at the rudder servo by loosening the set screw
on the adjustable servo connector
(A)
using a Phillips screwdriver, and sliding
the pushrod to the desired position.
4. Tighten the screw to lock the pushrod into position.
5. Re-install the servo hatch.

IMPORTANT:
Integrated servo connectors are in the wing and fuselage. Ensure that
they slide together correctly.
1. Secure the wing halves into position using a Phillips screwdriver and the
included M3 x 8mm screws

Control Surface Centering
After assembly and transmitter setup, confirm that the control surfaces are
centered. The model must be powered up and bound to the transmitter in AS3X
mode, keeping the throttle at zero. When enabled, SAFE mode is active at power
up. AS3X mode is activated when the throttle is raised above 25% for the first time
after being powered on. It is normal for the control surfaces to respond to aircraft
movement if the aircraft is in AS3X or SAFE modes.
1. Verify the trims and subtrims on your transmitter are zero.
2. Power up the model in AS3X mode and leave the throttle at zero, the control
surfaces need to be centered.
3. If they are not centered, loosen the screw in the quick connector linkage on the
servo horn using a Phillips screwdriver.
4. Slide the pushrod in the quick connector to change the length of the linkage
between the servo arm and the control horn so the control surface is centered.
5. Apply thread lock compound to the screw threads and tighten the screw to
secure the pushrod at the desired length.
