Factory Settings for the Control Horns and Servo Arms
The Illustration shows recommended hole settings in the
servo arms and control horns.
For smooth control of your aircraft, always make small
corrections. All directions are described as if you were
sitting in the aircraft.
• Flying faster or slower: When your aircraft is stable in
the air, push the throttle stick up to make the aircraft
go faster. Pull the throttle stick back to slow down. The
aircraft will climb when the throttle is increased.
• Elevator up and down: Push the elevator stick forward
to make the aircraft go down. Pull the elevator stick
back to go up.
• Aileron right and left: Move the aileron stick right to
make the aircraft roll or “bank” right. Move the aileron
stick left to bank left.
TIP: Always picture yourself in the aircraft when
determining which way to bank the aircraft wings.
When the aircraft is ying away from you, banking
the aircraft right or left appears normal. When ying
toward you, the aircraft will appear to bank the opposite
direction to the control input given. This will become
more instinctual with experience.
• Rudder left and right: Push the rudder stick left or right
to yaw or point the nose of the aircraft left or right. The
rudder stick is also used to steer the aircraft left and
right while taxiing on the ground.
TIP: Similar to the tip given for the aileron control, pic-
ture yourself in the aircraft to determine which direction
to point the nose depending on whether you are ying
away from yourself or toward yourself.
For rst ights, set the SAFE
®
ight mode switch to Begin-
ner Mode (position 0).
IMPORTANT: Even though SAFE technology is a very
helpful tool, the aircraft still needs to be own manually.
If incorrect input is given at lower altitudes or at slower
speeds, the aircraft can crash. Study these control inputs
and the aircraft response to each carefully before attempt-
ing your rst ight.
