IMPORTANT:
When finished flying, never keep the aircraft in the sun. Do not
store the aircraft in a hot, enclosed area such as a car. Doing so can damage
the foam.
LiPo battery tips:
• Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the aircraft after use to
prevent trickle discharge.
• Charge your Li-Po battery to about half capacity for long term storage.
• During storage, make sure the battery charge does not fall below 3V per cell.
• Always read and follow all safety warnings and guidelines included with
your LiPo batteries.
Post Flight
Disconnect the flight battery from the ESC.
Power OFF the transmitter.
Remove the flight battery from the aircraft.
Recharge the flight battery.
Repair or replace all damaged parts.
Store the flight battery apart from the aircraft and monitor the battery charge.
Make note of the flight conditions and flight plan results, planning for future flights.
Trimming the Aircraft
Adjusting Trim in Flight
The SAFE flight mode switch should be set to
Experienced mode
(position 2)
before adjusting the trims.
Trimming is best done in calm wind conditions.
If your aircraft does not fly straight and level at half throttle with the sticks at neutral,
fly into the wind and adjust the trim sliders as indicated in the table until the aircraft
maintains a reasonably straight and level flight path.
After the aircraft is trimmed in flight, land the aircraft and proceed to the
Manually
Adjusting Trim
section to set the trim mechanically.
The included transmitter features electronic trim buttons. The transmitter emits
a faint beep with each click of the trim buttons in either direction. Holding the
button in either direction quickly adjusts the trim several steps until the button
is released or until the trim reaches the end of its travel. If the trim button does
not beep when clicked, the trim is at the far end of its travel. Center trim is
indicated by a slightly louder beep.

Manually Adjusting Trim
After adjusting the aircraft trims in the air, the servos should be re-centered
and the pushrods adjusted to reflect the trim changes made in the air. Doing so
ensures the servos will retain full throw and not overdrive in either direction.
1. After landing from the trim flight, set the throttle cut to ON
(switch H, position 1).
2. Set the flight mode switch to experienced mode (switch B, position 2).
Ensure the aircraft is kept immobile.
3. One at a time, take note of any offset in position of each control surface.
4. Remove the clevis from the control horn of the control surface by sliding
the soft rubber tube back along the pushrod. Gently pry the clevis open and
slide the pin out of the control horn.
5. Center the transmitter trim for that control surface.
6. Adjust the clevis in or out by rotating the clevis on the pushrod until the
control surface position matches the corrected offset when the clevis pin is
inserted in the control horn.
7. Re-insert the clevis pin in the correct hole in the control horn.
8. Snap the clevis closed, capturing the control horn between the clevis sides.
9. Slide the soft rubber tube over the clevis to keep it from opening.
10. Move to the next control surface and repeat steps 3 through 9, until all of
the transmitter control surface trims are centered.
