This section lists the items you will need to fly your new Wattage Cessna 180 EP RTF. As you can see, there's not much to it!
SECTION 2: RECOMMENDED ITEMS
The Wattage Cessna 180 EP RTF includes a 6 cell Nickel Metal Hydride flight battery and a 2.5 hour AC
wall charger to charge the flight battery. If you want to, you can purchase a second flight battery so you have two. That
way, you can take two fully-charged flight batteries with you to fly. That means twice as much flying!
We also sell a high-performance quick-charger that can charge the flight
battery in about 30 minutes and is powered from your car's 12 volt DC
battery. This enables you to charge the flight battery at the flying field,
so you can fly as many times during the day as you want.
PRO TIP
Wattage PF-12 AC/DC Peak Charger
Part # 130108
Each Wattage Cessna 180 EP RTF comes with a sticker on the crystal mount showing which frequency in the 27Mhz band
that the radio control system operates on . No two airplanes can operate near each other if they are on the same frequency.
SECTION 3: BECOMING FAMILIAR WITH YOUR CESSNA 180 EP RTF
Antenna:
Transmits the signal from the transmitter to the receiver inside the airplane.
Crystal Mount:
This is where the transmitter's crystal is located. The radio's frequency is printed on the crystal mount.
Elevator/Rudder Control Stick:
This stick can move both right and left, and up and down at the same time. The stick
moves the airplane's elevator and rudder which make the airplane climb, descend, turn right and turn left.
On/Off Switch:
Turns the transmitter on and off.
Red LED:
This LED glows red when the transmitter is turned on.
Servo Reversing Switches:
These switches allow you to electronically change the direction the servos move.
Throttle Stick:
Used to apply power to the motor. The stick is proportional, meaning that motor power can be applied
gradually from off to full power. This stick can also be moved right and left, but this channel is not used with this airplane.
Trim Tab:
Used to electronically make minor trim adjustments to the control surfaces.
Voltage Scale:
When the transmitter is turned on, the voltage scale displays the status of the transmitter batteries.
