1. With the "Range check mode" on, walk away from
the model while simultaneously operating the
controls. Have an assistant stand by the model
to confirm that all controls are completely and
correctly operational. You should be able to
walk approximately 30-50 paces from the model
without losing control.
2. If everything operates correctly, return to the
model. Set the transmitter in a safe, yet accessible,
location so it will be within reach after starting the
engine or motor. Be certain the throttle stick is in
the low throttle position, then start the engine or
motor. Perform another range check with your
assistant holding the aircraft with the engine
running at various speeds. If the servos jitter or
move inadvertently, there may be a problem.
