Trim Adjustments

The TAGS system will handle fl ight trimming automatically for you. A few
clicks of trim may be used during fl ight if the model slowly drifts. If more than
fi ve trim steps are needed on the cyclic controls then it is recommended to
land the model, center the trims and perform the initialization process again.

Do not move the control sticks before or during takeoff as the model may tip
over easily. If necessary, make very small corrections on the cyclic controls. It
is recommended to take off from a hard surface, as this will allow the model
to slide around. Once you become accustomed to the control feel, taking off
from carpet or grass is possible. The TAGS provides a very consistent control
feel regardless of the head speed or fl ight conditions.

Once the model is in fl ight you will fi nd the model is extremely stable and
easy to fl y. Forward fl ight is “hands off” stable and the model is capable of
fl ying up to 35mph. The TAGS adds many benefi ts to the fl ying qualities of
the Novus 125 FP.

E-Board Adjustments

E-Board Adjustments

Aileron/Elevator
Servo Extent

This adjustment is factory set

to the ideal setting. The cyclic
extent is used to control the
cyclic sensitivity when left/right
or forward/aft cyclic is operated.
Keep in mind that the Dual Rate
also reduces the maximum
cyclic rate. If you feel that the
high rate cyclic rate is not
sensitive enough, then turn the
adjustment clockwise to increase
the maximum cyclic extent. If you feel the cyclic is insensitive, then turn the
adjustment counter-clockwise to decrease the maximum cyclic extent.
