2) Check every bolt and every glue joint
in the BOOMERANG EP 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
rst few ights.
6) Check to ensure the control surfaces
are moving the proper amount for both
low and high rate settings.
7) Check the receiver antenna. It should
be fully extended and not coiled up inside
the fuselage.
8) Properly balance the propeller. An
out of balance propeller will cause exces-
sive vibration which could lead to engine
and/or airframe failure.
We wish you many safe and enjoyable ights
