Step 7
Range Test
You will need two people to perform the range test: one to hold the
plane and the other to give transmitter input.
Warning:
The person holding the plane should hold it in a way
so that the propeller does not come in contact with any part of
their clothing or body.
. One person holds the transmitter, while the other person walks
50–00 paces away with the airplane.
2. Be sure the throttle is in the “Off” position.
3. Turn the transmitter on.
4. Plug the airplane battery into the fuselage.
5. As soon as the throttle slider is advanced, the propeller should
spin quickly.
6. As the first person moves the transmitter controls at the same
time, the other person watches to be sure the airplane’s motor
and tail controls operate smoothly.
Step 8
Seek Assistance from an Experienced Radio Control Pilot
VERY IMPORTANT
The 3-channel control system is designed for the experienced radio
control pilot and is not intended for the first-time flyer. It is best
to have HobbyZone
®
Zone 2 experience. First-time pilots of the
ParkZone Cessna 20 Centurion should seek the assistance
of an experienced RC flyer until the additional third channel, pitch
control, has been competently mastered. Crash damage is not
covered under the warranty.
