Make sure your ESC brake is programmed
to Off. Also, be sure to use an ESC with
the proper low-voltage cutoff and it is set
correctly for the batteries you are using.

with the propeller installed. The plane could
move and cause serious injury. Always check the
motor without the propeller to avoid injury.

trim and stick to the low throttle position. Plug
the battery into the speed control and check

counterclockwise when viewed from the front of
the aircraft. Use the instructions provided with your
ESC to make corrections to the direction of rotation
of the motor if necessary.

the three 2mm x 8mm black wood screws and a
#1 Phillips screwdriver to attach the cowling to the
fuselage.
