Preflight Checklist
Find a safe open area to fly.
Charge the flight battery.
Install a fully charged flight battery in the aircraft.
Make sure all linkages move freely.
Check the Center of Gravity (CG).
Perform the control direction test.
Perform a radio system range test.
Plan flight for flying field conditions.
Set a flight time for 6-8 minutes.
Have Fun!
At any time during a flight you can switch between Beginner, Intermediate
and Experienced flight modes or use panic recovery to get your aircraft to a
safe flying attitude. Change between flight modes by changing the flight mode
switch position.
Beginner Mode
(switch B, position 0; green aircraft LED indicator)
Flight envelope limits:
Pitch (nose up and down)
and Roll (wing tips up and
down) angles are limited
to help you keep the
aircraft airborne.
•
Self-leveling:
when the pitch and roll controls are returned to neutral, the
aircraft returns to level flight.
• Stability assisted takeoff and landing.
• Throttle based climb and descent.
• Altitude limit of 400 feet.
Intermediate Mode
(switch B, position 1; blue aircraft LED indicator)
Less flight envelope limits:
Pitch (nose up and down)
and Roll (wing tips up
and down) angles are
still limited to help you
keep the aircraft airborne,
but you will have more
freedom in pitch and roll.
• NO self-leveling above 50 feet:
self-leveling is only fully active in Beginner Mode.
• Altitude limit of 400 feet.
TIP:
When flying in Intermediate Mode, the Carbon Cub S 2 will automatically
be in Beginner Mode when below 50 feet.
Experienced Mode
(switch B, position 2; red aircraft LED indicator)
NO flight envelope limits:
There are no pitch or roll
limits, and no self-leveling,
so you have complete
control! You can even fly
inverted (upside down)
and perform aerobatic
maneuvers including loops,
rolls and more.
TIP:
Switch to beginner mode at any time and release the control sticks for
self-leveling.
NOTICE:
If the aircraft is upside down when the self leveling is applied,
sufficient altitude is required for the aircraft to return to straight and level flight.

Panic Recovery
This function is intended to provide you with the confidence to continue to
improve your flight skills. If you become disoriented or the aircraft is in an
unknown or uncomfortable attitude in any flight mode:
1. Press the Bind/Panic button (button A) on the transmitter and release the
control sticks. The aircraft will immediately pull out of a dive and roll wings
upright and level.
IMPORTANT:
The aircraft will recover to a safer attitude even if sticks are held
while holding the Panic button. However, release the control sticks for the
quickest recovery.
2. Release the Panic button and continue your flight.
CAUTION:
The panic recovery function will not avoid obstacles in the
aircraft flight path. Sufficient altitude is required for the aircraft to
return to straight and level flight if the aircraft is upside down when the panic
function is applied.
