• Descend and shoot several approaches to
landing. Keep the first flight short.
• Inspect the plane thoroughly after landing and
cool down.
Subsequent Flights
• Once you are comfortable with rates, expo and
CG with the gear down, pull up the gear and find
settings for normal flight.
• Watch residual fuel after landing and find a timer
setting that provides a comfortable reserve.
• Do not stress the airframe with high G
maneuvers until you become confident in the
model.
• Don’t rush getting to know a new aircraft. Fly it
in good weather conditions only until you have a
proven model and you are comfortable and
confident in your abilities with the plane.
