The transmitter is always the first thing ON and the last thing OFF.  This is to prevent  

accidental propeller startup.   For proper startup instructions please refer to page 8.

PRE-FLIgHT CHECk

 

IMPORTANT TIP: Always perform the motor-check and radio-range check with the help of a friend or 
parent. Doing so alone may cause the model to get away from you and cause damage.

 

RADIO RANGE CHECK

1) Make sure both the airplane and transmitter power switch are in the ‘OFF’ position 

and you have plugged a charged battery into the airplane battery compartment.

2) Turn the switch on the transmitter to the ‘ON’ position and extend the antenna fully.
3) Switch the power switch on the airplane to the ‘ON’ position. 
4) Have a friend/parent hold the airplane’s fuselage under the wings with the nose 

pointing away from him/her and away from their person and loose clothing. 

5) Walk 50-ft away from airplane. 

MOTOR CHECK

• Move the left-hand stick forward—the motor should 

start running.

• Release the throttle stick—the motor should stop 

running.

RUDDER CONTROL CHECK

• Move the rudder control stick to the right—the rudder 

should move to the right.

• Move the rudder control stick to the left—the rudder should move to the left.

If your airplane does not respond from 50 feet away try a different area as there may be radio 
interference.  Do NOT attempt to fly!
