Flying
Always avoid fl ying near houses, trees, wires
and buildings. You should also be careful to
avoid fl ying in areas where there are many
people, such as busy parks, schoolyards,
or soccer fi elds. Consult local laws and
ordinances before choosing a location to fl y
your aircraft. We recommend only fl ying your
T-28 in light winds.
Place the T-28 in position for takeoff (facing
into the wind if fl ying outdoors). Gradually
increase the throttle to ¾ to full, and steer with
the rudder. Pull back gently with the elevator
and climb to check trim. Once the trim is
adjusted, begin exploring the fl ight envelope
of the T-28.
Note:
Due to the large propeller on the T-28, it
is possible to hit the prop on the ground while
landing. Make sure to fl are when landing and
try to land as smoothly as possible to minimize
hitting the prop. While this does not damage
the airplane it is possible to wear down the
tips of the propeller if fl ying from an abrasive
surface such as concrete
or asphalt.
Note:
You can also raise the
nose gear to avoid further
prop strikes.
Failure to lower the throttle
stick and trim to the lowest
possible positions during a
crash could result in damage
to the ESC in the receiver unit, which may
require replacement.
Note:
Crash damage is not covered under
warranty.
Repairs
Thanks to the T-28’s construction, repairs to
the foam can be made using foam-compatible
CA or tape. When parts are not repairable,
see the Replacement Parts List for ordering by
item number.
