Control throws
Please, follow carefully the recommended linkage setups for ailerons and elevators.
For the AILERON we recommend the following throws:
Low rate: 20° up / 20° down
Expo: 40%
High rate: 40° up / 40° down
Expo: 80%
For the ELEVATOR we recommend the following throws:
Low rate: 20° up / 20° down
Expo: 20%
High rate: 45° up / 45° down
Expo: 50%
For the RUDDER we recommend the following throws:
Low rate: 30° left / 30° right
Expo: 30%
High rate: 45° left / 45° right
Expo: 60%
Note: the Expo is (+) for JR systems, and (–) for Futaba systems.
Mixing
For best performance, we recommend a linear-mix*:
Rudder
Elevator UP
When you give full rudder to the right or left side, the elevator have to go up (positive) approx. 6%
* if you have a programmable computer radio.
Rates and expos
Use the recommended expos to soften the feel of the model, expecially on high rates. The goal is to
get the model to feel the same around neutral as it does on low rates.
Use low rate settings for all flying, included starts and landings, and high rate for snap, spins etc.
Recommended CG
The recommended Center of Gravity location is 145mm behind the leading edge of the wing
against the fuselage.
Use the Flight Power battery pack, moving it forward or backward, to achieve the correct balance.
Range test your radio
•
Before fly, be sure to range check your radio as manufacturer’s instruction manual of you
radio-system recommand.
•
Double-check all controls (aileron,elevator, rudder and throttle) move in the correct
direction.
•
Be sure that your Flight Power batteries are fully charged, as per the instructions and that
your radio is fully charged as per its instructions.
