Once the model is properly trimmed, you can practise the
art of flying, and carry out manoeuvres such as circles,
squares, rectangles and figures-of-eight.
To avoid giving incorrect control commands, always stand
behind and to one side of the model.
You can fly a square pattern by alternating the direction
of flight: away from the pilot, to the pilot's right, and then
towards the pilot.
Tip: when the model is flying with the nose pointing
towards you, the controls are reversed (apart from
elevator and throttle control).
Important Notes
Launching: Hold the model in your hand, set the motor to full po-
wer, and push the model forward smartly, directly into any wind.
It is essential to adjust the trims so that the aeroplane flies in a
stable attitude, climbing gently. Use the controls gently at first to
learn how the model responds to flight commands.
Landing: Slowly and steadily reduce the throttle setting until the
model descends and touches down. Never reduce the throttle
setting abruptly. After the landing disconnect the flight battery
from the receiver, and only then switch the transmitter off.
Caution: Stopping (obstructing) the motor when it is turning can
cause serious damage to the mechanical system, and may even
result in a fire. If the propeller is forcibly stopped, immediately
move the throttle stick back to Idle!
Note regarding the flight battery: As soon as you notice a red-
uction in motor power, land immediately and disconnect the bat-
tery. Never continue flying until the battery is flat, as this causes
a deep-discharge condition, which results in permanent damage.
Allow the battery to cool down before recharging it.
Replacing the propeller: A damaged propeller must be re-
placed immediately.
