E-flite P-40 Warhawk Assembly Manual

Range Test your Radio

1. Before each flying session, be sure to range

check your radio. See your radio manual for the

recommended range and instructions for your

radio system. Each radio manufacturer specifies

different procedures for their radio systems. Next,

start the motor. With the model securely anchored,

check the range again. The range test should not

be significantly affected. If it is, don’t attempt to

fly! Have your radio equipment checked out by the

manufacturer.

2. Double-check that all controls (aileron, elevator

and throttle) move in the correct direction.

3. Be sure that your transmitter batteries are

fully charged, per the instructions included with

your radio.

Flying your P-40 Warhawk

Flying the P-40 Warhawk is a pleasure you will not

soon forget. A gentle hand launch with full throttle is

all that is needed to get the P-40 into the air. Once you

are airborne, you will find that the P-40 is very smooth

and handles very well. Basic aerobatics such as loops

and rolls are a breeze with the P-40. Both high and

low speed flight are also easily obtained. When it is

time to land, a gentle descent while carrying a little

power is all that is needed. Once you are over the

threshold and about one foot off the ground, pull the

power off and gently apply up elevator to flair for a

smooth landing.

Happy Landings!

Safety do’s and don’ts for Pilots

• Check all control surfaces prior to each takeoff.

• Do not fly your model near spectators, parking

areas or any other area that could result in injury to

people or damage of property.

• Do not fly during adverse weather conditions. Poor

visibility can cause disorientation and loss of control

of your aircraft. Strong winds can cause similar

problems.

• Do not take chances. If at any time during flight you

observe any erratic or abnormal operation, land

immediately and do not resume flight until the cause

of the problem has been ascertained and corrected.

Safety can never be taken lightly.

• Do not fly near power lines.
