BALANCING
1. It is critical that your airplane be balanced
correctly. Improper balance will cause your
plane to lose control and crash.
Place receiver and battery in radio compartment
and adjust their position to make the plane
balance on the center of gravity (100mm from
leading edge of wing). Make sure the center of
gravity is located where it is indicated before
flying. If additional tail or nose weigh is needed,
securely attach it at the nose or tail as needed.
2. Wrap battery and receiver in protective foam
padding. Route the receiver antenna out of the
fuselage and to the rear of the airplane. Secure
to the vertical fin or one side of the horizontal
stab with a pin and small rubber band.
Ailerons : 10mm up 10mm down
Elevator : 12mm up 12mm down
Rudder : 20mm right 20mm left
CONTROL THROWS
1. We highly recommend setting up a plane using
the control throws listed. Adjust pushrod
positions on control arms or horns to provide
control surface throws as illustrated. Center all
control surfaces.
2. The control throws should be measured at the
widest point of each surface!.

FLIGHT PREPARATION
PRE FLIGHT CHECK
1. Completely charge your transmitter and receiver
batteries before your first day of flying.
2. Check every bolt and every glue joint in your
plane to ensure that everything is tight and well
bonded.
3. Double check the balance of the airplane
4. Check the control surfaces.
5. Check the receiver antenna . It should be fully
extended and not coiled up inside the fuselage.
6. Properly balance the propeller.
7. Use at least 5 rubber bands per side to hold the
wing onto the fuselage.
We wish you many enjoyable flights with your
plane and once again thank you for your
choosing a Phoenix Model's product.
