 Check The Control Surface and Channel Condition

Before trying to fly the airplane,  please carefully check  to make sure the 

transmitter and the  servos work normally. 

CAUTION: Make sure that you

must turn on the transmitter firstly and then you can connect the bat-

tery plug. If you want to turn off the transmitter  you must ensure that 

the battery of the plane must be cut off first.
