Turn on the transmitter and receiver. Plug the servos into the receiver one at a time
testing for correct operation (see your radio manual for servo plug assignments).

q
Check that each control on the transmitter moves the correct servo in the correct
direction. Moving the throttle stick on the transmitter upward, for instance, should cause
the throttle servo arm to rotate clockwise. If any servo rotates opposite to its proper
control direction, flip the servo-reversing switch on the transmitter corresponding to that
servo.
DOUBLE CHECK THE ROTATION DIRECTION OF EACH SERVO. IT IS
PRACTICALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FLY A HELICOPTER WITH THE CONTROLS
REVERSED.

q
Notice how the four trim levers immediately below and beside the control sticks on the
transmitter operate. Each trim lever controls the neutral point of one of the servos.

When you finish checking the controls, turn the transmitter and receiver off.
