Tx should have adequate power for fl ight when the LED is on constantly. Anytime the
LED begins to fl ash, accompanied by the sounding of an audible tone, the Tx battery
voltage has dropped too low
and operation of the model should NOT be attempted!
WARNING! Never operate an R/C model with weak Tx batteries!
Reduced operational range and/or possible loss of control of the
aircraft could result. Replace weak alkaline batteries, or re-charge
NiCd or NiMH batteries, before attempting a fl ight!
If during a fl ight the Tx LED starts to fl ash, accompanied by the sounding of audible
tones, it’s a warning that the Tx batteries have become weak and the aircraft should be
landed as soon as possible!
AILERON (CH1)
Controls the moveable surfaces at the end of both main wings to rotate the airplane
about the “roll” axis (an imaginary line which extends from the airplane’s nose to the
tail). Since every airplane is different, the aileron reversing switch must be set so that
moving the aileron stick to the right will cause the airplane’s right aileron to defl ect up,
thus causing the right wing to drop and the airplane to bank right. Moving the aileron
stick to the left will cause the airplane’s left wing to drop and the airplane to bank left.
This is one important method for turning the aircraft.
ELEVATOR (CH2)
Controls the moveable horizontal surfaces on the airplane’s tail to rotate the airplane
about the “pitch” axis (an imaginary line extending through the center of both main
wings, from one wing tip to the other wing tip). Position the elevator reversing switch so
that pulling the elevator stick back (towards you) will cause the elevators to defl ect up,
thus causing the nose of the airplane to rise. Pushing the elevator stick forwards (away
from you) will cause the nose of the airplane to drop. When using the ailerons to bank
the airplane’s wings, pulling the elevator stick back will help the aircraft maintain altitude
and turn the aircraft more quickly.
THROTTLE (CH3)
Controls the speed (R.P.M.) at which the engine or electric motor operates. With the
throttle reversing switch in the NOR position, pulling the throttle stick back will cause the
engine’s speed to decrease. Pushing the throttle stick forward will cause the engine’s
speed to increase.
RUDDER (CH4)
Controls the sideways movement of the airplane’s tail and will rotate the airplane about
the “yaw axis” (an imaginary line from the top of the airplane’s fuselage to the bottom
of the fuselage, located near the center-point of the fuselage). Position the rudder
reversing switch so that moving the rudder stick to the right causes the rudder to defl ect
to the right, thus causing the nose of the airplane to point to the right. Moving the rudder
stick to the left will cause the nose of the airplane to turn left. When using the rudder
in conjunction with the ailerons, the airplane’s nose can point into a turn (instead of
pointing up and “skidding” through the turn), allowing the airplane to perform tighter,
more coordinated turns.
