OPERATION CHECK

Congratulations! Now you are ready to fly.

1. Install eight AA batteries in the transmitter,

referring to the radio system’s instruction manual.

2. Review the illustration to become familiar with

your airborne radio components. Following are
description of these components:

❚ 

ESC: This device controls power to the motor

unit.  It will cut-off power to motor when voltage
starts to drop.

❚ 

Receiver: Receives the radio commands from

the transmitter and sends them to the servos
which converts the command to motion which, in
turn, moves the rudder or elevator.

❚ 

NiMH Battery: Rechargeable battery pack that

provides power to the motor unit and the radio
system.

❚ 

Motor Unit: Contains a DC electric motor, a

gear drive, and a propeller that provides the
thrust for the airplane.

3. Turn the transmitter on and then the receiver and

refer to illustrations in page 13.

( Always turn transmitter on first then the receiver

and turn receiver off first then the transmitter )

❚ 

Move the stick right and make sure rudder

moves to the right.

❚  

Move the stick left and make sure rudder

moves left.

❚ 

Move the stick upward and make sure the

elevator moves down.

❚ 

Move the stick downward and make sure the

elevator moves up.

❚ 

Also check for the proper amount of throw and

make sure the rudder and elevator are in neutral

when the stick and the trim levers are in the

center.

4. Hang on the airplane and throttle up the stick.

The motor unit should come on.  Make sure the

propeller is trying to pull the airplane forward.

Throttle down or turn off the switch to stop the

motor.

You are now ready to go flying!
