FIRST FLIGHTS

Checks You Should Make

Before you attempt to fly your model you should

perform some final checks:

1. Fully charge your radio and flight batter ies

following the manufacturers instructions.

2.Check the direction of travel of your control surfaces

and the operation of the motor controller per the

manufacturers instructions.

3.Range check your radio system per the

manufacturers instructions.

4. Double check that you have installed the screws in 

the servo control arms and that the clevises are 

snapped tightly on the control horns.

We  strongly recommend that you get help from an

experienced R/C pilot to learn to fly if you are just

beginning.  You should be able to find help at your

local dealer or club field.

Congratulations

Now that you have completed the assembly of your

model we feel that have a very capable and good

looking flying wing.  We hope that you will enjoy this

model and get many hours of flying pleasure from its

use.  Thank you for purchasing this Velocity EP from

Thunder Tiger and we look forward to providing you

with other great R/C products in the future.
