2. Power OFF the transmitter.
3. Remove the flight battery from the aircraft.
4. Recharge the flight battery.
5. Store the flight battery apart from the aircraft and
monitor the battery charge.
6. Make note of the flight conditions and flight plan
results, planning for future flights.
Flying Tips and Repairs
We recommend flying your aircraft outside in calm
conditions. Always avoid flying near houses, trees, wires
and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid flying
in areas where there are many people, such as busy
parks, schoolyards or soccer fields. Consult local laws and
ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft.
Takeoff
Place the aircraft in position for takeoff (facing into the
wind if flying outdoors). Set dual rates to low position and
gradually increase the throttle to ¾ to full and steer with
the rudder. Pull back gently on the elevator and climb to
check trim. Once the trim is adjusted, begin exploring the
flight envelope of the aircraft.
Landing
Land into the wind. This is very important for this model.
Fly the aircraft to approximately 6 inches (15cm) or less
above the runway, using a small amount of throttle for
the entire descent. Keep the throttle on until the aircraft is
ready to flare.
During flare, keep the wings
level and the airplane pointed
into the wind. Gently lower the
throttle while pulling back on
the elevator to bring the aircraft
down on all three wheels.
Failure to lower the throttle
stick and trim to the lowest
possible positions during a
crash could result in damage
to the ESC in the receiver
unit, which may require
replacement.
Over Current Protection (OCP)
This aircraft is equipped with Over Current Protection
(OCP). This feature protects the ESC from overheating. OCP
stops the motor when the transmitter throttle is set too high
and the propeller cannot turn. The OCP will only activate
when the throttle stick is positioned just above 1/2 throttle.
After the ESC stops the motor, fully lower the throttle to
re-arm the ESC.
NOTICE: Crash damage is not covered under the warranty.
Repairs
Repair the aircraft using foam-compatible CA
(cyanoacrylate adhesive) or clear tape. Only use foam-
compatible CA, as other types of glue can damage the
foam. When parts are not repairable, see the Replacement
Parts List for ordering by item number.
For a listing of all replacement and optional parts, refer to
the list at the end of this manual.
NOTICE: Use of foam-compatible CA accelerant on your
aircraft can damage paint. DO NOT handle the aircraft
until the accelerant fully dries.
NOTICE: When you are finished flying, never leave the
aircraft in direct sunlight or in a hot, enclosed area such
as a car. Doing so can damage the foam.
CAUTION: Always
decrease throttle
at propeller strike.
