Flying course

Take off
Point the aircraft into the wind while slowly applying power until the aircraft starts to track
straight, use the rudder when necessary. When the aircraft reaches takeoff speed, ease back
on the elevator stick until the aircraft is climbing at a constant rate without decelerating.
Climbing at too steep of an angle at the relatively low speeds of a takeoff-climb may result in
an aerodynamic stall.
Flying
Always choose a wide-open space for flying your plane. It is ideal for you to fly at a sanctioned
flying field. If you are not flying at an approved site always avoid flying near houses, trees, wires
and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid flying in areas where there are many people,
such as busy parks, schoolyards, or soccer fields. Consult laws and ordinances before choosing
a location to fly your aircraft. After takeoff, gain some altitude. Climb to a safe height before
trying technical manoeuvres.
Landing
Land the aircraft when you start to feel sluggish motor response. If using a transmitter with
a timer, set the timer so you have enough flight time to make several landing approaches.
The model's three point landing gear allows the model to land on hard surfaces. Align model
directly into the wind and fly down to the ground. Fly the airplane down to the ground using
1/4-1/3 throttle to keep enough energy for proper flare. Before the model touches down, always
fully decrease the throttle to avoid damaging the propeller or other components. The key to
a great landing is to manage the power and elevator all the way to the ground and set down
lightly on the main landing gear. With some practice, you will be able to set the aircraft gently
on its main gear and hold it that way until the speed reduces enough where the nose wheel
(tricycle landing gear aircraft) or tail wheel (tail draggers) settles onto the ground.
Maintenance
Repairs to the foam should be made with foam safe adhesives such as hot glue, foam safe CA,
and 5min epoxy. When parts are not repairable, see the spare parts lst for ordering by item
number.Always check to make sure all screws on the aircraft are tightened. Pay special atten-
tion to make sure the spinner is firmly in place before every flight.
