To increase the aileron throw, gently pull up on the pushrod to disengage the

pushrod from the outer hole and move to the inner hole on the bellcrank.

Replace the tape on the fuselage on the cowl, behind the wing and on the

turtle deck. The airplane is now set for maximum aileron throw using 100%

ATV on the transmitter. To increase rudder and elevator throw, move the

pushrods to the inner holes on the control horn one hole at a time and fly the

airplane to get used to the increased throw of the control surfaces.

Note: Do not set you transmitter ATV over 100%. If the ATV is set

over 100% it is possible to overdrive the servo and cause

damage to the servo.

Choosing a Flying Area

When you are ready for your first flight, you will want to select a relatively

open area, the size of a basketball court or larger, that is free of people and

obstructions with calm wind (if flown outdoors). Once you have properly

trimmed your airplane and become familiar with its handling and capabilities,

you will be able to fly in other smaller, less open areas.

Out of the box the ailerons are set at the lower travel setting on the aileron

bellcrank. To increase the aileron travel, first cut through the decal on one

side of the cowl. Cut through or pull off the tape behind the wing and on the

turtle deck. Open the top of the airplane and locate the aileron bellcrank.

The servo pushrod is in the outer hole of the aileron bellcrank.
