Control Direction Test
Choose a Flying Field
Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fl y your aircraft.
In order to have the most success and to protect your property and aircraft, it is
very important to select a place to fl y that is very open.
Remember, your aircraft can reach signifi cant speeds when fl ying and can cover
ground quickly. Plan on fl ying in an area that gives you more space than you think
you need, especially with fi rst fl ights.
The fl ying site should:
• Have a minimum of approximately 1300 feet
(400m) of clear space in all directions.
• Be clear of people and pets.
• Be free of trees, buildings, cars, power lines or anything that could
entangle your aircraft or interfere with your line of sight.
WARNING: Do not perform this or any other equipment test with the
propeller installed on the aircraft. Serious injury or property damage
could result from the motor starting inadvertently.
1. Set the fl ight mode switch to Experienced mode (position 2).
2. Keep the throttle at zero and place the model on level ground away from
obstacles.
3. Move the sticks on the transmitter as described in the table to ensure the
aircraft control surfaces respond as shown.
If the control surfaces do not respond as shown, DO NOT FLY. Refer to the
Troubleshooting Guide for more information. If you need more assistance,
contact the appropriate Horizon Hobby Product Support department.
If the aircraft responds as shown, continue on to the Flight Control section.
