BEFORE USE

TRANSMITTER OPERATION AND MOVEMENT OF EACH SERVO

Before making any adjustments, learn the operation of the transmitter and the move-
ment of each servo. (In the following descriptions, the transmitter is assumed to be in
the standby state.)

AILERON OPERATION

When the aileron stick is moved to the
right, the right aileron is raised and the
left aileron is lowered, relative to the di-
rection of flight, and the plane turns to the
right. When the aileron stick is moved to
the left, the ailerons move in the opposite
direction.
To level the plane, the aileron stick must
be moved in the opposite direction.
When the aileron stick is tilted and held,
the plane will roll.

ELEVATOR OPERATION

When the elevator stick is pulled back,
the tail elevator is raised and the tail of
the plane is forced down, the air flow ap-
plied to the wings is changed, the lifting
force is increased, and the plane climbs
(UP operation). When the elevator stick
is pushed forward, the elevator is low-
ered, the tail of the plane is forced up, the
air flow applied to the wings is changed,
the lifting force is decreased, and the
plane dives (DOWN operation).

THROTTLE OPERATION

When the throttle stick is pulled back, the
engine throttle lever arm moves to the
SLOW (low speed) side. When the
throttle stick is pushed forward, the
throttle lever arm moves to the HIGH
(high speed) side.

RUDDER OPERATION

When the rudder stick is moved to the
right, the rudder moves to the right and
the nose points to the right, relative to the
direction of flight. When the rudder stick
is moved to the left, the rudder moves to
the left and the nose points to the left and
the direction of travel of the plane
changes.
