What to do if HobbyZone Toy aircraft is difficult to control?
If the HobbyZone Toy aircraft is difficult to control, it could be due to several factors: * A damaged wing or tail: Replace the damaged part. * A damaged propeller: Land immediately and replace the damaged propeller. * The center of gravity being behind the recommended location: Shift the battery forward, and do not fly until the correct center of gravity location is achieved.
What to do if HobbyZone Sportsman S Plus aircraft keeps turning in one direction?
If the HobbyZone Toy aircraft keeps turning in one direction, it might be because the rudder or aileron trim is not adjusted correctly.

Alternatively, for aileron issues, adjust stick trims or manually adjust aileron positions.
How to fix HobbyZone Sportsman S Plus aircraft will not Bind (during binding) to transmitter?
If the HobbyZone Toy aircraft will not bind to the transmitter during the binding process, consider the following: * The transmitter is too near the aircraft during binding: Move the powered transmitter a few feet from the aircraft, disconnect and reconnect the battery to the aircraft. * The aircraft or transmitter is too near a large metal object, wireless source, or another transmitter: Move the aircraft and transmitter to another location and attempt binding again. * The bind plug is not installed correctly: Install the bind plug and bind the aircraft to the transmitter. * The flight battery or transmitter battery charge is too low: Replace or recharge the batteries.
Why HobbyZone Sportsman S Plus GPS Function not operating properly?
If the GPS function on your HobbyZone Toy is not operating properly, it could be because the compass has been exposed to a magnetic source. To resolve this, deactivate the GPS system while in flight and land the aircraft. Remove any possible magnetic sources such as cameras, camera mounts, speakers, etc. Unplug and reconnect the flight battery to reactivate the GPS system for the next flight. Perform a compass calibration before flying again.

If the HobbyZone Toy aircraft nose rises steeply at half throttle, consider these potential causes: * The wind is too gusty or strong: Postpone flying until the wind calms down. * The elevator is trimmed ‘up’ too much: If trim must be adjusted more than 4 clicks when pushing the trim button, adjust the push rod length. * The battery is not installed in the correct position: Move it forward approximately 1/2”.
Why HobbyZone Sportsman S Plus flight time is too short?
If the flight time for your HobbyZone Toy is too short, it could be due to several reasons: * The battery is not fully charged: Recharge the battery. * Flying at full throttle for the entire flight: Fly at just above half throttle to increase flying time. * The wind speed is too fast for safe flight: Fly on a calmer day. * The propeller is damaged: Replace the propeller.
What to do if HobbyZone Sportsman S Plus aircraft will not climb?
If the HobbyZone Toy aircraft will not climb, it could be due to several reasons: * The battery is not fully charged: Fully charge the battery before flying. * The elevator may be trimmed ‘down’: Adjust the elevator trim ‘up’. * The propeller is damaged or installed incorrectly: Land immediately, and replace or install the propeller correctly.
