Attaching the Horizontal Stabilizer
1. Locate the horizontal stabilizer of the tail.
2. Slide the horizontal stabilizer in the allotted space
of the fuselage, making sure the control horn
installed in the elevator will properly align with the
pushrod and clevis exiting the back of the fuselage.
3. When you are certain the horizontal stabilizer is
centered correctly and in the right place, use the
tape provided to properly secure the stabilizer to
the fuselage. Use the tape on the top and bottom
of each side of the horizontal stabilizer (total of 4
applications).
4. Make sure the throttle stick is in the full down (idle)
position. Turn on the transmitter and plug in the
flight battery.
5. Locate the lower clevis and pushrod exiting the
right side of the fuselage, and attach the clevis to
the outermost hole on the elevator control horn.
Slide the included retainer over the clevis to ensure
the clevis will not open.
6. Make any trim adjustments as necessary prior to
flight (see step 7).
Note: To make trim adjustments to the horizontal
stabilizer:
a. Confirm the throttle stick is in the full down (idle)
position and turn on the DX5e transmitter.
b. Connect the blue EC3 battery connector into the
EC3 device connector on the speed control.
c. Use the elevator trim of the radio by moving up or
down to achieve neutral position when the gimbal is
also at neutral. If these changes are not sufficient,
center the transmitter elevator trim (distinguished by
a long tone), then remove the clevis from the elevator
control horn and turn clevis in or out as needed to
move the elevator alignment back to neutral.
Warning: Always keep hands and all objects away
from the propeller in case the motor is engaged.
A moving propeller can cause severe injury and
damage.
Step 5
Installing the Landing Gear
Install the main landing gear by inserting the wire into
the locator hole in the wing. Swivel the landing gear
toward the retaining clips and gently snap into place.
NOTE: The landing gear is directional. When properly
installed, the landing gear will rake forward to add
stability in landing. If the gear does not angle forward
when installed, simply reverse the landing gear.
Step 4
Installing Landing Skids (Optional)
Two landing gear skids have been included with the F4U
Corsair should you choose to fly without the landing
gear. To install, simply apply the skids over the landing
gear mounts and secure with the included screws. The
rear edge of the skids can be secured to the Z-Foam
using double-sided tape.”
