LANDING GEAR INSTALLATION

Attach the landing gear as shown in the picture. The tilt angle of the front landing gear is forward and the tilt angle of the rear landing gear is backward.

RUDDER ADJUSTMENT

1. When switching on the aircraft, the tailplane, ailerons, and elevator should be in the center position. If the control surfaces are not in the center position, manually rotate the hinge to move the control surface to the center position.
2. Turning the hinge to the right shortens the linkage. Turning to the left lengthens the linkage.

FLIGHT CONTROL MODE

Before flying the aircraft, be sure to familiarise yourself with the controls.

1. Place the aircraft on a level surface in front of you with the tail pointing towards you and hold it with one hand.
2. Now move all the levers to see which lever or button is responsible for which function. The operation of all actions is shown in the table below.
3. Repeat this exercise to familiarise yourself with the controls.

CONNECT TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER

Open the battery compartment and connect the battery to the electronics. Place the aircraft on level ground and switch on the transmitter. The indicator light on the transmitter  and receiver lights up, and the connection is established.

LANDING

Land the aircraft into the wind. Pull the throttle down slowly, the aircraft will start to descend. Correct with the elevator if necessary shortly before touchdown. Once the aircraft has touched down, pull the throttle all the way down.

3D/6G CONVERSION

1. The default setting after switching on is the 6G (gyro-supported) mode. To switch to 3D mode, press the 3D/6G toggle button briefly. Two beeps will sound and the aircraft will be in 3D mode.
2. While flying in 3D mode, no matter what the attitude is, short press the mode switch button to change to 6G mode. The aircraft immediately aligns itself into a stable flight attitude.
3. 6G mode is suitable for beginners. We recommend that you only use the 3D mode once you have mastered the flight in 6G mode.

SERVO DUAL RATE

Using the dual rate function of the remote control, the servo travel can be limited for beginners (more comfortable flying) and set to 100% for advanced pilots. This makes the aircraft more maneuverable.

END OF THE FLIGHT

Remove the battery after the flight to avoid deep discharge. Deep-discharged batteries cannot be recharged and must be disposed of properly.

REPLACE PROPELLER

Take out the propeller assembly

Use a screwdriper to unscrew the propeller fixing screw

Click the propeller back into the bracket. To do this, place itat an angle.

The position marked “I” on the side of the front clamp is aligned with the flat position of the shaft.

First, pull off the propeller set. Use a screwdriver to loosen the screw to remove the propeller from the spinner. Replace the propeller and reattach the spinner with the screw.

Note: when replacing the new propeller and reinstalling it, align any groove in the upper bracket with a semi-circular convex boundary point on the lower bracket and install it at an angle. Misalignment may result in the poor assembly of the propeller assembly. If the entire wind vane clamp is accidentally pulled out, simply align the point marked “I” on the side of the clamp with the flat reduction shaft when installing.
