Adjusting the Engine
Step 1.
Completely read the instructions included with your
engine and follow the recommended break-in procedure.
Step 2.
At the field, adjust the engine to a slightly rich setting at
full throttle and adjust the idle and slow speed needle so that a
consistent idle is achieved. Before you fly be sure that your
engine reliably idles, transitions and runs at all throttle settings.
Only when this is achieved should any plane be considered
ready for flight.
Step 3.
Before each flight, check the tightness of al the engine
mounting bolts.
Range Test Your Radio
Step 1.
Before each flying session, be sure to range check
your radio. This is accomplished by turning on your transmitter
with the antenna collapsed. Turn on the radio in your airplane.
With your airplane on the ground, you should be able to walk
30 paces away from your airplane and still have complete
control of all functions. If not, don’t attempt to fly! Have your
radio equipment checked out by the manufacturer.
Step 2.
Double-check that all controls (aileron, elevator,
rudder, and throttle) move in the correct direction.
Step 3.
Be sure that your batteries are fully charged, per the
instructions included with your radio.
Step 4.
Check all control linkages to make sure they are
securely fastened.
