bases,
etc.
3. You
will
need
to
range
check

not experiencing
any
interference. (Ifyou
are
flying with
other

modeler
at
a field, do not turn on your transmitter
until you
are
certain
that
no
one
else
is using
your
channel.)
4. Always turn on
the
receiver
last

the
transmitter
and
shut
off
the
receiver
first
before
turning off
the
transmitter.
5. Ifyou
are
only a
beginner
to
the
radio control model flying, do not
attempt
to fly your model
without
any
assistance
or
advice
from
advanced
expert
fliers.
6.
Please
refer to
the
instruction
guide
carefully
and
thoroughly before
assembling

2.
Keep
the
tracking straight using
the
nose
steering
during
the
take-off
process.
3. Apply
just
a
touch
of
up-elevator
when
the
model
reaches
sufficient takeoff
speed
and
the
model lifts smoothly into
the
air.
4. Make
the
turn
when
the
model is at a high altitude.
Then
the
trim all

Direction
1.
Gradually
reduce

up-elevator
to maintain a
smooth
ratio of
the
descendent
process
.Do
not

up-elevator
otherwise
the
plane
may
go
into a stall.
