Always seek the help of an experienced radio control pilot if you are
not familiar with pitch control. Failure to do so, could result in a crash
and significant damage to your airplane.
Step 14
Landing Your Cessna Centurion
When you begin to notice that your Cessna 20 Centurion no longer
climbs well under full power (normally after approximately 0–5
minutes), the battery is getting low and it is time to land. Bring in your
Cessna toward the desired landing spot. Gradually reduce throttle (as
well as giving a small amount of down elevator if you choose) to reach
an altitude of approximately 4 feet. At this point, reduce even more
throttle and your Cessna 20 Centurion should glide in softly for a
landing.
Note: Your Cessna should be landed on a smooth surface (such
as concrete or wood) so that the landing gear can work effectively.
Expert Tip: As you get better and more experienced at flying,
try adding a bit of “up” elevator just prior to landing to “flare” the
plane. With some practice, your landings should become smooth
and on target.
Warning: Do not attempt to catch the airplane or injury may
occur. Remember, there is a spinning propeller on the front of the
plane that can cause injury! Also, remember to cut power to the
motor right before you land to prevent damage to the propeller.
