Trimming The Model; E) The First Landing - Reely 1542912 Bedienungsanleitung

Warning!
When flying always ensure a sufficient flying speed. By pulling too much on the elevator rudder joystick, the
model will become too slow and tilt forwards over the tip or laterally over one wing.
Therefore, ensure at the beginning a sufficient safety height in order to allow yourself to get used to the steering
attitude of the model. Do not try to fly too far in order to be able to clearly evaluate, at any time, the flight attitude.
d) Trimming the Model
If in straight flight your model shows the tendency to drift to one direction, correct the neutral position of the corre-
sponding rudder via the trimming.
Rudder:
If the model drifts towards the left, push the trim lever (see figure 2, pos. 5) step by step towards the right until the
model flies in a straight line. If the model drifts towards the right, effect a trim correction towards the left.
Elevator:
Set the trim lever for the elevator (see figure 2, pos. 3) in such a way that at full motor speed the model rises in a flat
angle and that at reduced motor speed it flies at a constant altitude.
Motor Function:
The trim lever for the motor function (see figure 2, pos. 10) should always be in the middle position for the motor speed
to be controlled cleanly.

e) The First Landing

As with the start, the landing must always take place against the wind.
Reduce the motor performance and fly in big flat circles. Do not pull too hard on the elevator in order to be able to
reduce the flying altitude selectively. Select the last curve before the approach for a landing so that in case of an emer-
gency you would have sufficient room for landing and so that you would not have to effect considerable corrections to
the course during the approach for a landing.
When the model is flying on the planned landing line, reduce the motor performance further and hold it horizontally
with the elevator. Now the model must loose height further and must fly towards the planned touch-down point at the
end of the imaginary landing line.
In this critical flying phase, ensure sufficient flying speed and do not slow down the model reducing the motor speed
too much or by pulling too hard at the elevator.
It is only shortly before the touch-down that you should stop the motor and land the model with fully drawn elevator.
After the landing, you can re-adjust, if necessary, the linkages for the rudder and the elevator so that the model flies
in a straight line and that the trim lever at the transmitter is in the center position again.
