Thank you for purchasing our T1800 glider from Top
RC Hobby , and we hope this plane will bring endless
joy to you after you choose it.
★It is very easy to assemble in several minutes and
the wings are removable, very easy to carry and
maintain.
★Both the wings and fuselage are reinforced with
9.0MM aluminum tubes to improve the flight strength
of the entire flight.
★This aircraft adopts the traditional T-shaped tail and
upper wing design to ensure the glide performance
and stability of the entire aircraft. It is suitable for
beginners and intermediate consumers.
★Adopting a 10-inch folding propeller design, makes
it look very beautiful and enables it flight more
efficiently and it can also protect the propeller from
landing damage.
★Large battery compartment design enables those
1300-2600MAH batteries to be used in this aircraft and
at the same time it can reserve more space for
consumers to modify FPV flight.

About flight time
Spare part for T1800
Strict ground inspections must be done before each flight, which can effectively avoid flight accidents.
1. Check if the screws of the whole airplane are installed in place or not, the servo arms and horns are connected
reliable or not and wings fixing are locked or not.
2. Install the battery and adjust the aircraft's center of gravity to the recommended position in the manual.
3. Make sure power battery, remote control transmitter battery, etc. are fully charged and in a reliable working
condition.
4. Gently push the throttle to check if the propeller is turning correctly or not.
5. After all checks are completed, the flight can be started. The first flight for beginners needs the assistance of
experienced enthusiasts to avoid flight accidents due to improper operation.
The recommended flight time by the manufacturer is using the battery what we request, and the flight test is
completed by experienced enthusiasts on a breeze day. This flight time is related to battery parameters, aircraft
weight, flight conditions and flight methods. Different conditions may result in different flight times.
It is recommended that enthusiasts use the "timing function" of the remote control during flight. It is recommended
that the initial flight time be set within 4 minutes.
When there is a countdown alarm, please land the aircraft and measure the battery voltage. At the end of the battery
discharge period, it is forbidden to fly the aircraft into the leeward zone (the far end of the wind direction) to prevent
the aircraft from being unable to return safely due to insufficient power.
