8. Check list before starting:
1. Check
centre of gravity
2. Check
control surfaces
:
Do control surfaces move in the correct direction?
Check the greatest swings
3. Check
reception
4. Check
control surfaces before each flight.
Do all control surfaces still move correctly?
Is there enough power in the accumulator?
Are the brakes retracted?
You can save the retraction of the brakes in your start
setting. By this, you can never start with extended
brakes.
5.
Gentle launch
in the flat. If there are some wrong settings,
you will realize it during a gentle throw in the flat.
9. Notes for the use
To avoid heating of the carbon surface, models with carbon
wings should
not
lie
in the sun
.
During flight
heating by the sun is no problem,
as the model is
cooled by the wind. On ground
the glider should be kept
inside protective bags
or
in the shade.
After every
ungentle landing
, you must
check your model for
possible damage
, such as:
-
Is the radio board still glued thoroughly?
-
Did the leading edge of the wing burst open?
-
Did rudder or elevator get damaged?
