SETTING CONTROL SURFACE TRAVEL

Use the control surface travel gauges to correctly set

up the surface deflections. The gauges provide you

with two setting: a gentle response setting and a more

aerobatic setting. Even if you are an experienced pilot,

we encourage you to start out at the gentle setting and

then move to the aerobatic mode after you become

more familiar with the characteristics of this aircraft.

AILERON GAUGE

ELEVATOR GAUGE

RUDDER GAUGE

1. ‡ Place the gauge anywhere along the wing.

Align the center of the aileron to the mark in the

neutral position.

‡

With the control stick full left and full right,

match the center of the aileron to the mark.

2. ‡ Adjust the horn bracket up or down along the

hole selection to achieve the correct travel set-

ting.

NOTE: This is a good time to make sure the control

surfaces are responding correctly. You would

not want to correct a left bank with more left, so

check it now!

1. ‡ Place the elevator gauge anywhere along the

elevator hinge line.

2. ‡ Adjust the servo arm hole along with the con-

trol horn hole to achieve the desired setting.

Check each elevator.

1. ‡ Position the rudder gauge at the top of the fin at

the hinge line. Follow the same procedure

used for the elevator to achieve the desired

travel.
