Install the full charged flight battery into the battery compartment of the fuselage and connect the battery
to the electronic speed controller (ESC).
2. The right stick of transmitter controls the aileron when pushed left or right: when you push the stick
to the left, the left aileron of plane will lift and the right aileron of plane will drop in response and vice versa
for when the aileron is pushed right.
Before flying, put the trim of aileron to the middle position and then adjust both the ailerons to the neutral
position with the control rod.
3 .The left stick on the transmitter controls the power of motor when pushed backwards for forwards
When holding the fuselage of the plane, please keep objects away from the propeller to avoid hurting
people or damaging the propeller. If you pull the left stick to the lowest position, the motor will stop.
Now the motor is on standby. You can check the motor by pushing the stick up slowly.
