Making Trim Adjustments
to the Horizontal Stabilizer
1. Turn on the transmitter.
2. Install a fully charged battery into the battery
compartment and secure it with the included hook
and loop strap.
3. Set the elevator trim lever to center.
Step 5
Motor Test
Warning: Keep everything clear of the propeller
before starting the motor test so you do not
damage any property or harm anyone.
1. Make sure the throttle slider is in the “off”
position.
2. Turn on the transmitter.
3. Plug the flight battery into the white lead inside
the fuselage.
4. Secure the battery inside the fuselage cavity by
looping the hook and loop straps around the bat-
tery, and replace the battery cap.
5. Your ParkZone ® Spitfire has a built-in throttle-
arming feature that must sense the throttle
slider in the “off” position before it will spin the
propeller. Advance the throttle forward and the
propeller should spin at a high speed. The throt-
tle slider needs to be in the “off” position each
time the battery is plugged into the airplane.
6. When finished with the motor test, be sure to
disconnect the battery first, and then turn off the

transmitter. Follow this step each time you need
to turn the airplane off. Additionally, each time
you use your airplane you should always place
the throttle in the “off” position, and then turn on
the transmitter and plug the battery pack into the
lead from the fuselage.
7. Make any trim adjustments, as necessary, prior
to flight (see steps 5 and 8).
4. Make certain the elevator is set to neutral with
the horizontal stabilizer. Do this by removing the
clevis from the control horn and turning it on
the pushrod as needed. Once the adjustment is
made, reattach the clevis.
5. If you feel more adjustments are necessary while
in flight, move the trim lever on the transmitter a
few “clicks” up or down as needed.
