Finishing
11. Cut the pre printed adhesive backed decals from
the decal sheet and apply where desired. Clean
the models surface with alcohol to allow a good
bond to the surface. The decals may be applied
using Windex or a solution of 1 drop of dish
detergent to a cup of water sprayed on the model
to assist in proper positioning. The water must
be pressed out from under the decal after the
decal is in position. Use a rubber squeegee or a
credit card edge to press the water out.

Preflight Checks
13.
Center of Gravity
: Check CG is set properly.

Motor
: The motor should run smoothly at all
power settings with smooth transition from idle
to full throttle. Do not fly an unreliable motor.
Read motor instructions completely.

Flight Controls:
Ensure all flight controls are
free from binding and are centered. Check that
all hinges are tight and will not pull out. Control
linkages must be rigid and tight and have no slop.
Confirm proper direction of ailerons, rudder, and
elevator. Experienced flyers have lost airplanes
due to reversed ailerons. Right roll is right up,
left down. Left roll is left up, right down.

Batteries
: Ensure the transmitter, receiver/motor
batteries are fully charged. Charge flight
batteries before each flight. If using LiPo flight
batteries be sure to use proper charger and charge
rates for your batteries. Read the battery and
charger instructions completely and comply with
all safety recommendations.

servo screws, control horns, wheel collars, and
clevis keepers are tight and secure.

centered. Check rate and condition switches set
properly. Check the receiver antenna is fully
extended and not reversed on it self.
