CONTROL THROWS.
1) It is critical that your airplane be bal-
anced correctly. Improper balance will cause
your plane to lose control and crash. The cen-
ter of gravity is locate
8cm back from the lead-
ing edge of the wing, measured at wing tip.
BALANCING.
To correct this, move the battery and receiver
forward orif this is not possible, stick weight
onto the firewall.When balanced correctly, the
airplane should sit level or slightly nose down
when you lift it up with your fingers.
2) If the nose of the plane falls, the plane
is nose heavy. To correct this first move the
battery pack further back in the fuselage. If
this is not possible or does not correct it, stick
small amounts of lead weight on the fuselage
sides under the horizontal stabilizer. If the tail
of the plane falls, the plane is tail heavy.

Ailerons: 10 Low rate 12 High rate
Elevator: 8 Low rate 10 High rate
Rudder: 15 Low rate 20 High rate
 E)Check the throttle. Moving the throttle
stick forward should open the carburetor bar-
rel. If it does not, flip the servo reversing switch
on your transmitter to change the direction.
 D) Check the rudder. Looking from be-
hind the airplane, move the rudder stick to the
right. The rudder should move to the right. If it
does not, flip the servo reversing switch on
your transmitter to change the direction.
FLIGHT PREPARATION.
 A) Check the operation and direction of
the elevator, rudder, ailerons and throttle.
 B) Plug in your radio system per the
manufacturer's instructions and turn every-
thing on.
 C) Check the elevator first. Pull back on
the elevator stick. The elevator halves should
move up. If it they do not, flip the servo re-
versing switch on your transmitter to change
the direction.
FLIGHT PREPARATION.
aileron on the right wing half. Move the aileron
stick to the right. The right aileron should move
up and the other aileron should move down. If
it does not, flip the servo reversing switch on
your transmitter to change the direction.

1) Completely charge your transmitter
and receiver batteries before your first day of
flying.
2) Check every bolt and every glue joint
in the PC-6 to ensure that everything is tight
and well bonded.
3) Double check the balance of the air-
plane. Do this with the fuel tank empty.
4) Check the control surfaces. All should
move in the correct direction and not bind in
any way.
5) If your radio transmitter is equipped
with dual rate switches double check that they
are on the low rate setting for your first few
flights.
6) Check to ensure the control surfaces
are moving the proper amount for both low
and high rate settings.
8) Properly balance the propeller. An out
of balance propeller will cause excessive vi-
bration which could lead to engine and/or air-
frame failure.
We wish you many safe and enjoyable
flights with your PC-6 .
7) Check the receiver antenna. It should
be fully extended and not coiled up inside the
fuselage.
