e) The First Touch-Down

Do not make your first flight too long and try to land your model airplane again as soon as possible. This gives you
enough time to perform several landing operations without exhausting the rechargeable battery capacity.
You should always start and land against the wind. Reduce the motor speed or switch off the motor and fly in wide and
flat circles. Do not pull on the elevator too hard to reduce the flying altitude slowly.
Select the last curve before approaching for a landing so that, in case of an emergency, you would have sufficient
room for landing and so that you would not have to make any considerable corrections to the course during the ap-
proach for a landing. When the model is flying along the planned landing line, reduce the motor speed further or turn
off the motor completely, and use the elevator to hold the model in a downwards flight. The model now should lose
height and fly towards the planned touch-down point at the end of the imagined 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.
Slightly move the elevator briefly before the model touches down.
After landing, adjust the linkage rods so that the airplane flies straight and ensure that the trim levers on the transmitter
are in the central position again. Once you are able to handle the airplane perfectly, you can try to optimise its flight
by shifting the balance point.
