Installing the RadioInstalling the Radio
Use radio packing foam (not included), available at your local
hobby dealer) when you install the receiver and battery. The
batteries and receiver can be held in place with Velcro or
rubber bands. Route the receiver antenna back through the
fuselage using an antenna tube (not included) or route it
outside back to the vertical stab. If using an antenna tube,
lightly tape the receiver antenna to the outside of the tube (or
route inside the tube) and route antenna tube inside the aftaft
section of the fuselage.
PRE PRE-- FLIGHT NOTESFLIGHT NOTES
Before the first flight, and to ensure some longevity in your
Cap 232, you will do well to check out a few things before
heading to the flying field.
1. As a reminder, balance the Cap with the fuel tank empty.
Depending on your type of flying you may want to adjust it
forward or aft.
2. Check the control surface travels again.. We have given you
a starting point however; they may need to be fine tuned to
meet your flying needs.
3. Run the engine and check the idle. Have it ready so you
don't encounter any problems at the field.
4. Turn on the radio with the engine running to make sure
there are no intermittent glitches. Give it a good range check.
5. Check all hardware to be sure it is secure. There is nothing
worse than losing an airplane on the first flight because of a
loose nut or clevis.
Notes:Notes:
A word about wrinkled covering. Because the airplane, when
shipped, has been put through many environmental
conditions, the covering will tend to wrinkle in places. A heat
gun will take them out when used with care. Your Cap 232 is
covered with UltraCote, the finest film covering available today!
When using two servos on the elevator, a “Y” harness with a
servo reverser is required in order to keep both servos in the
same hookup configuration. This and other related products
(servo lead extensions, switch harness with charging port) can
be purchased from Maxx Products, 815 Oakwood Rd., Unit D,
Lake Zurich, IL, 60047. They have many useful R/C products.
Ask for their catalog.
We hope you enjoy flying your Cap 232. We have tried very
hard to ensure the best quality possible. All of the hardware
included in the kit is American made. Our Cap is structurally
sound and will take any maneuver you can do, except straight
into the ground. Happy Fly ‘in!
