Flight

Planning Your Flight Path 
Before taking off, plan your flight path. 
A good path for beginners is what pilots call the airfield traffic pattern - the path 
that pilots follow when approaching an airport or taking off from it. This flight path 
will help you keep the airplane in range during the flight.

Taking Off 
1.   Check:
  • Battery level
Note: If the battery charge level indicator is in the yellow 
area, you have only about 15 seconds left. Recharge the 
Smart Module. 
  • Control surfaces
  • Electric rudder
2.   Face the wind.
3.   Double-tap the throttle to unlock it.
4.   Set the throttle to 70%-75% thrust.
5.   Hold your smartphone level.
6.   Launch!
