Owner’s Manual and Additional Technical Help
This manual has been carefully written to be as helpful to you, the new owner, as possible. There are many
pages of setup procedures and examples. However, it need not be your sole resource of setup guidelines for
your 8J. For example, pages 27-29 include setup instructions for a basic 4-channel airplane. The Frequently
Asked Questions web page referenced below includes this type of step-by-step setup instructions for a
variety of other model types, including multi-engine, complex gear installation, 7-servo aerobatic models,
140 degree CCPM, etc.
