Step 6

Reversing Flight Controls

Should the Vapor’s electronic components be used in another

aircraft, you may find it necessary to reverse the operation of flight

control surfaces. Reversing the rudder and aileron operation can be

accomplished by following the steps below:

1. Be certain that the battery is unplugged from the aircraft and the

transmitter is turned off.

2. Push down on the digital trim button for the surface you would

like to reverse.

Top elevator trim button—elevator normal

Bottom elevator trim button—elevator reverse

Left rudder trim button—rudder normal

Right rudder trim button—rudder reverse

3. Continue holding the desired digital trim button down and turn

the transmitter on.

4. Hold the digital trim button down for approximately five seconds

until tones are heard, confirming the selection.

5. Connect the flight battery and complete the flight control

test, confirming that all surfaces are operating in the correct

direction.

Step 7

Making Adjustments to the Control Surfaces

1. Any changes necessary to bring both the rudder and elevator

to neutral (zero degrees) when the right transmitter stick

is centered should be possible using the digital trim buttons.

2. If you find this is not the case, do not fly until this has been

corrected.

3. If corrections are needed, you may have to adjust the length

of the pushrod by gently stretching or pinching the bend in the

control wire as necessary. You can also achieve more control by

changing the hole on the control horn that the pushrod goes into.

We suggest you fly it first as it comes from the factory and then

only move “in” one hole at a time.

Step 8

Choose a Large, Open Site for Flying

Always choose a wide-open space for flying your ParkZone Vapor. It is

ideal for you to fly in an indoor location with a floor area of 15’ x 15’

and a minimum ceiling height of 8 feet. We suggest that first flights

are done in a larger area, such as in a garage or basement.

If you choose to make your flights outdoors, the conditions MUST

be COMPLETELY CALM. The Vapor weighs less than 1/2 ounce and

can easily be blown away. If you choose to fly outdoors, remember to

always keep the plane upwind from you to avoid flyaways.

Make certain that you do not fly near trees, buildings, or other areas

that can restrict your view or interfere with your flying.

Note:

The Vapor weighs about 1/2 ounce and can easily

be blown away.
