specified, add weight to the fuselage or move
the battery position. Check the C.G. before
flying.

Important Safety Precautions
# First time flyer should never fly by himself / herself. Assistance from experienced flyer is
absolutely necessary.
# Pre-flight adjustment must be done before flying, it is very dangerous to fly a badly
pre-adjusted aircraft.
# is specially designed to be powered by 2C 0.60-0.75 engine,
using a more powerful engine does not mean better performance. In fact, over powered
engine may cause severe damage and injuries.
# Make sure the air field is spacious, never fly the plane too close to people and never get
too close to a running propeller.
# When Flaps are lowered, nose of model will rise. The nose-up varies with the speed at
which the model is flying when you lower the flaps and the extent to which they are lowered.
Check effect of flaps at higher altitude to avoid surprises during landing. You may apply
down trim of the elevator to compensate for the nose-up effect when lowering the flaps.
Taking off with flaps lowered is not recommended, as the increased drag may require a
longer runway and more engine power for the model.
