7. You cannot fly in bad weather conditions such as thunderstorms,snows….
8. Model plane’s battery, don’t allowed to put in everywhere. Storage must ensure that there is no inflammable and explosive materials in the round of 2M range.
9. Damaged or scrap battery should be properly recycled, it can’t discard to avoid spontaneous combustion and fire.
10. In flying field, the waste after flying should be properly handled, it can’t be abandoned or burned.
11. In any case, you must ensure that the throttle is in the low position and transmitter switch on, then it can connect the lipo-battery in aircraft.
12. Do not try to take planes by hand when flying or slow landing process. You must wait for landing stop, then carry it.

PNP Installation Instructions

As shown in this photo:

1. Insert the carbon tube into the fuselage and keep it in the center.
2. Apply the glue on the main wing install position of fuselage (Indicated position as the photo shown), then install the main wing on the fuselage and wait for it solidify.

Install Horizontal Stabilizer

1. Use glue to attach the horizontal tail on the fuselage as the below photo shown.

Install Vertical Stabilizer

• Use glue to install the vertical stabilizer on the rear fuselage. Ensure it is 90 degrees to the horizontal plane of the fuselage. A crooked vertical stabilizer will hinder flight.

Install Elevator pushrod

1. Use a servo tester or radio to center each servo.
2. Insert the threaded side of the rod to the plastic tube and tighten the clevis.
3. One side pushrod insert to the servo arm,adjust its length.And insert the clevis to the elevator pushrod horn.
4. Repeat these 3 steps for the other side.

Install Aileron pushrod

1. Use a servo tester or radio to center each servo.
2. One side pushrod insert to the servo arm,adjust its length.And insert the clevis to the aileron pushrod horn.
3. Repeat these 2 steps for the other side.

Battery Size

Center of Gravity

Correct Center of Gravity (”CG”) is critical for the aircraft to fly safely and in control.
Please refer to the following CG diagram to adjust your plane’s Center of Gravity.

• You can move the battery forward or backward to adjust the Center of Gravity.
• If you cannot obtain the recommended CG by moving the battery to a suitable location, you can also install a counterweight to achieve correct CG. However, with the recommended battery size,no counterweight is required. We recommend not flying with a battery size that requires a counterweight.

Control Direction Test

After installed the plane, before flying, we need a fully charged battery and connect to the ESC, then use radio to test and check that every control surface work properly.

Aileron

Elevator

Dual Rates

• According to our testing experience, use the following parameters to set Aileron/Elevator Rate.
• Program your preferred Exponential % in your radio transmitter. We recommend using High Rate for the first flight, and switching to Low Rate if you desire a lower sensitivity. On successive flights, adjust the Rates and Expo to suit your preference.

 | Aileron ( measured closest to the fuselage)| Elevator(measured closest to the fuselage)
---|---|---
Low Rate| H1/H2 7mm/7mm D/R Rate：75%| H1/H2 13mm/13mm D/R Rate：75%
High Rate| H1/H2 9mm/9mm D/R Rate：100%| H1/H2 15mm/15mm D/R Rate：100%
