LANDING
It's time to land the plane now. The problems you are facing are where and how to land it.
1、For the sake of safety, you should land the plane before the battery exhausted if you
are a beginner. The power system of FOX comes with “Auto Cut Off” feature
which reserves battery power for safe landing.
2、During the first flight, while at a high altitude, turn the motor off and retract the flaps
(move it at position “1” or “2”), Then notice how the plane reacts. This will give you an
idea of how the plane will react during a landing.
10、With the plane flying level, check to see if the plane is flying straight. Move the aileron
control stick in neutral position, if the plane wants to turn, move the aileron control trim
lever opposite the direction the plane is turning. Then the plane is trimmed OK. If you
take your hands off the sticks, the plane will fly straight and level on its own. Having the
plane trimmed properly makes flying much easier and more enjoyable.
11、Don't let the plane get too far away from you. The farther away it is, the harder it is to
see what the airplane is doing. Especially when the battery runs low, you should control
the plane back to you immediately.
3、To land the FOX, fly down wind, past the landing area. Gently turn into the wind and
reduce the speed so that the plane starts to come down. Adjust the throttle when needed
to reach the landing area, but not fly past it. Get the plane 1m or 2m above the ground
when it is closed to the landing area.
4、Just before landing, at about 0.5m above the ground, apply a little up elevator to make
the plane nose up (not to make it climb). This will cause the plane to slow and settle to
the ground. Please don't force it to stop by your body or anything else.
COUTION: Just before the plane touching down, pull the throttle control stick to its lowest
position. Because after landing, the propeller cannot rotate with the throttle in
the run position. Immediately move the throttle stick down to stop the motor. If
you fail to do this, the propeller will be damaged because of hard landing.
And the motor, speed control or the battery will become very hot and be
dangerous.
AFTER THE FLIGHT
Unplug the battery with the plane and switch off the transmitter. Allow enough time for
the motor and battery to cool before recharging. Check the plane carefully and make sure
no parts have gotten loose or damaged.
9、For beginners, rudder is mainly used for take off and landing. During take off and
landing, it is necessary to control the plane turn to left or right by controlling the rudder,
instead of controlling the aileron. Move the rudder control stick to the left will make the
plane turn to left; move this stick to the right will make the plane turn to right. If the plane
tends to turn with the left stick centered, move the rudder trim lever opposite the
12、When learning to fly, it is best to keep the plane high enough so that you have enough
altitude to correct it if you make a mistake.
