Attention!
 Whenying,alwaysobservesufcientminimumightspeed.Withreducedmotoroutput,pullingonthe
elevator control lever too much will cause the model to slow down and top forwards over the fuselage top
or to the side over a wing.
 Therefore,yatasufcientsafetyheightinthebeginninginordertoallowyourselftogetusedtothesteer-
ingattitudeofthemodel.Donotytoofarinordertobeabletoclearlyevaluateightattitudeatalltimes.
d) Trimming in the Model
Ifyourmodeltendstodrifttoonedirectioninstraightight,correcttheneutralpositionofthecorrespondingrudderby
trimminginight.Aftertouch-down,alwaysndthereasonforwhichtrimmingwasrequired,andcorrectit(e.g.motor
inclination,etc.).Forthis,measureyourmodel(e.g.wingangle,motortraction,etc.)againandcorrectaccordingto
the measurements.
e) The First Touch-Down
Therstightshouldnotextendoveralongperiodoftime.Trytolandthemodelafteralittlewhile.Thisgivesyou
enoughtimetomakeseverallandingattemptswithoutexhaustingthebattery.
Liketherstight,therstlandingshouldalwaysbedoneagainstthewind.Reducethemotorspeedorswitchoffthe
motorandyinwideandatcircles.Donotpullontheelevatortoohardtoreducetheyingaltitudeslowly.
Selectthelastcurvebeforethelandingapproachsothatyouhavesufcientroomforlandingandthecoursedoesnot

motorspeedfurtherorturnoffthemotorcompletely,andusetheelevatortoholdthemodelinadownwardsight.The

Inthiscriticalyingphase,ensuresufcientyingspeedanddonotslowdownthemodelreducingthemotorspeed
too much or by pulling too hard at the elevator.

Afterlanding,adjustthelinkage–ifnecessary–sothattheplaneiesstraightandthetrimleversonthetransmitter
