Instruction Manual.

PREFLIGHT CHECK.

1) Completely charge your transmitter

and receiver batteries before your first day of
flying.

2) Check every bolt and every glue joint

in the SEAGULL 2000 to ensure that every-
thing is tight and well bonded.

5) If your radio transmitter is equipped

with dual rate switches double check that they
are on the low rate setting for your first few
flights.

6) Check to ensure the control surfaces

are moving the proper amount for both low
and high rate settings.

7) Check the receiver antenna.  It should

be fully extended and not coiled up inside the
fuselage.

    

We wish you many safe and enjoyable

flights with your SEAGULL 2000.

8) Properly balance the propeller.  An out

of balance propeller will cause excessive vi-
bration which could lead to engine and/or air-
frame failure.

3) Double check the balance of the air-

plane.  Do this with the fuel tank empty.

4) Check the control surfaces.  All should

move in the correct direction and not bind in
any way.

          E)

Check  the  throttle.    Moving  the

throttle stick forward should open the carbu-
retor barrel.  If it does not, flip the servo re-
versing switch on your transmitter to change
the direction.

FLIGHT PREPARATION.

C) Check the elevator first.  Pull back

on the elevator stick.  The elevator halves
should move up.  If it they do not, flip the servo
reversing switch on your transmitter to change
the direction.

D) Check the rudder.  Looking from

behind the airplane, move the rudder stick to
the right.  The rudder should move to the right.
If it does not, flip the servo reversing switch on
your transmitter to change the direction.

A) Check the operation and direction

of the elevator, rudder, ailerons and throttle.

           B) Plug in your radio system per the
manufacture’s instructions and turn every thing
on.

     F)

From behind the airplane, look at

the aileron on the right wing half.  Move the
aileron stick to the right.  The right aileron
should move up and the other aileron should
move down.  If it does not, flip the servo re-
versing switch on your transmitter to change
the direction.
