Ground Launch
Use the Beginner mode for takeoff in fi rst fl ights. If the
ground is not hard and level, get help to hand launch your
aircraft.
Tip: On the ground, use rudder control to keep the
aircraft rolling straight.
In Beginner mode, when properly trimmed, your
aircraft will climb at full throttle without use of the eleva-
tor stick.
• The aircraft fl ies 7 minutes or more on a battery
charge, using proper throttle management.
• If the motor pulses, land the aircraft immediately and
recharge the fl ight battery.
• Let the aircraft climb at full throttle, into the wind, until
the aircraft gets about 150 feet (46 meters) above the
ground, then decrease the throttle to half (50%).
• Flying with the nose pointed toward you is one of the
hardest things to do when learning to fl y. To practice
piloting the aircraft, try fl ying in large circles high off
the ground.
Beginner Mode:
Pitch (nose up and down) and Roll (wing tips up and
down) angles are limited to help you keep the
aircraft airborne.
Self-leveling
Intermediate Mode:
The pilot is only prevented from entering extreme
fl ight conditions.
Experienced Mode:
Unlimited Flight Envelope
Panic Recovery Mode
If you feel you have lost
control in any mode, hold the
Panic Recovery button. The
SAFE technology will return
the aircraft to a stable attitude
(wings level with a slight
climb). Always fl y at a safe
altitude, as Panic Recovery
may cause the aircraft to lose
some altitude when leveling
the wings. Release the Panic Recovery button to turn off
Panic mode and return to the current SAFE fl ight mode.
