注意事项
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
● 安装舵机前，请先将舵机通电让舵机中心点回中，以便能更好的调试舵面。
● Check/adjust servo centering, in order to adjust the control surface better.
● 初次启动电机，您需要确认电机旋转的方向以适配您的机型。
● Double-check the spinning direction of motor at first usage, and sure it’s suitable for your model.
● 请将重心（CG）调整至说明书所述位置并尽量靠近。如果有需要，您可以增加机头或者机尾的重量，以确保机体有更好的飞行姿态。
● Set the center of gravity (CG) at the position that manual already marked out. If necessary, add weight to the nose or tail
to ensure the best flight performance.
● 检查机身内部，确保所有设备正常连接；检查机身表面，包括但是不限于蒙皮，固定螺丝，舱盖，座舱罩等位置。
● Double-check the inside of the fuselage, make sure all the equipments are correctly connected; Check the heat-shrink
covering material’s surface, Make certain all screws, bolts, cabin and canopy remain secure.
● 在飞行前，请检查您电池情况，若有低电压，电池损坏等情况，请您停止操作并马上更换电池。
● Take great care when connecting/disconnecting the battery, pls replace the battery immediately once found low voltage
or damage to battery.
● 机身内部设备连接的方式，会和您的收发设备有关，在一些功能更多的收发设备上，您可以通过设置简化机身内部设备的连接。详细
请查看您的收发设备以确认是否满足您需要的功能。
● The way the internal devices of the fuselage are connected will be related to your transmitter-receiver device. For those
transmitter-receiver devices with more functions, you can simplify the connection of the internal devices of the fuselage.
Check your device for details to see if it meets the features you need.
● 动力设备和收发设备第一次配对时，可能需要设置油门最大行程，请您自行设置。
● When the power system and transmitter-receiver device are paired for the first time, you may need to set the maximum
stroke of the throttle. Please set it yourself.
