CENTER OF GRAVITY (CG):
IMPORTANT!
DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP. Having a properly
balanced aircraft is critical for proper flight. Too nose
heavy and the plane will want to dive and be hard to take
off and land. Too tail heavy and the plane will feel
unstable and out of control. Both conditions can cause the
aircraft to crash.
1.
With the aircraft upright, use your fingertips and lift the plane up at the stickers located under
the wing next to the fuselage.
a.
If the nose drops, move the battery backwards.
b.
If the tail drops, move the battery forward.
c.
If needed, add additional weight to the nose or tail (as far out as you can) to achieve
balance. Stick on weights work great for this.
GET READY TO FLY:
1.
Turn on the transmitter and move the throttle stick full up and then full down. The LED will be
flashing at first and then glow steady. You will also hear a beep. The transmitter is now armed
and ready for flight.
a.
IMPORTANT!
You must move the throttle up and down before plugging in the airplane,
otherwise the airplane will not respond.
2.
Next, plug in the battery on the aircraft and set it down on a level surface.
3.
During flight, use the trim buttons to adjust to fine tune the airplane so it flies straight and level.
4.
Use the throttle cut as a safety to lock the motor from turning.
5.
The control throws are set from the factory. If you find that
you need more, adjust the clevis location on the control
surface or on the servo arm.
a.
For more throw, move the clevis inward on the
control surface, for less, move it outward.
b.
On the servo arm, you do the opposite. Move it out
for more throw and in for less.
