Range Testing the Radio
 1. Before each flying session, be sure to range
check your radio. This is accomplished by
turning on your transmitter with the antenna
collapsed. Turn on the receiver in your airplane.
With your airplane on the ground and the
engine running, you should be able to walk 30
paces (approximately 100 feet) away from your
airplane and still have complete control of all
functions. If not, don’t attempt to fly! Have your
radio equipment checked out by the manufacturer.
 2. Double-check that all controls (aileron, elevator,
rudder and throttle) move in the correct direction.
 3. Be sure that your transmitter batteries are fully
charged, per the instructions included with your
radio.
