including the required turns.

What you're looking for is a 

comfortable landing speed. Now, try a few power-on and power-off
stalls. Again, you're looking for the speed at which the model stalls
and also for the type of stall that will occur. All of this is great 
information to have when you are setting up your first landing.

After making a few high-speed strafing passes over your field, it's
likely time to set-up your Bf-109 for a landing.

We always suggest that you make your landings using a standard
approach. Enter the downwind leg at about 50' in the air, throttled
back just enough to allow the airplane to very gradually sink. Make
the base turn, followed by the final turn, lined up with the center of
the runway. Keep a little power on the model, while keeping the
nose just slightly down. Fly to the touch down location until the
model is a foot or so off the ground. Start easing off of the throttle,
allowing the airplane to touch down on the main wheels. Allow the
tail wheel to settle to the ground and let the model finish its rollout
to a stop. Hold full up elevator and taxi back to the pits. With some
experience, you'll be making very nice landings every time.

With the first flight now in your logbook, it is time to completely
check everything in and on the model that may have come loose
or needs attention. In our long experience with model aircraft,
we've learned that anything that might come loose or needs 
attention, will show up within the first few flights. Do yourself a
favor and check everything now. The second flight should be even
more fun because you now have a trimmed model.

MAINTAINING YOUR  Bf-109:
Getting into the habit of routinely performing maintenance and
inspection of your Bf-109 will keep it looking good and flying good

for a long time. Full scale airplanes receive this kind of routine
treatment and fly safely for years. Your R/C model aircraft should
receive the same treatment.

After each flying session take the time to completely clean your
model. If you are used to cleaning up glow powered models, you
should really enjoy how easy it is to clean up an electric model!  We
use and suggest fresh, good quality paper towels and a silicone
free cleaner for degreasing and polishing. SIG makes one of the
best cleaners for this purpose - Pure Magic Airplane Cleaner.
Clean the airplane until it shines including the prop and spinner.

At home take a little time to completely inspect the airplane, 
looking for loose bolts, screws, covering seams, etc. Anything that
you find wrong -  immediately fix it! Inspect the fuselage radio
compartment carefully.

Check each servo, looking for loose 

linkages, missing screws, etc. Check each R/C link for integrity
and to make sure the keepers are in place. Check all the control
horns and servo arms to be sure they are firmly attached to the
control surfaces.

Finally, after each flying session you should monitor the charge on
your radio system, charging it as needed. If several days pass
before you fly again, top off the charge before flying again. Be sure
that the radio is fully charged before heading out to the flying field
again.

Good luck and good flying.........
