Flight preparation
Open the transmitter battery compartment and insert the
four AA cells* (check for correct polarity).
Switch the transmitter on (Fig. 1). The battery status is
shown on the left of the screen. Move the throttle stick and
trim to the bottom position (towards you). Open the batte-
ry compartment in the fuselage, connect the fully charged
flight battery, and close the battery compartment again
(Figs. 2 - 4).
The transmitter and receiver are now ready for use. Re-
peat this procedure every time you wish to fly the model.
Note: the 2.4 GHz transmitter and receiver are supplied
already bound at the factory. It will only be necessary to
bind the system again after a repair, or if you replace a
component.
The correct pre-flight procedure.

Checking the working systems
Before the first flight it is important to set all the trims - ex-
cept for the throttle trim - to centre. The throttle stick must
be in the "fully back" position (towards you). If the propeller
turns, adjust the throttle trim until it comes to a halt.
The correct post-flight procedure.
Open the canopy and remove the flight battery. Close the
battery compartment again, and switch the transmitter off.
*Notes on the use of dry cells:
Do not attempt to recharge dry cells, do not open
them, and do not incinerate them. Remove exhau-
sted dry cells from the transmitter after use. Escaped
electrolyte may ruin the transmitter.
Preparations for the first flight:
Wait for a day with
absolute flat calm
conditions.
Charge the flight battery before fly-
ing.
