Flying

Always choose a wide-open space for flying your

ParkZone Bf-109G PNP. It is ideal for you to fly at an AMA

sanctioned flying field. If you are not flying at an AMA

approved site, always avoid flying near houses, trees,

wires and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid

flying in areas where there are many people, such as

busy parks, schoolyards, or soccer fields. Always follow

local ordinances. We recommend only flying your Bf-109G

in light winds.

Prior to Each Flight

• Always make sure your Bf-109G PNP is properly

trimmed.

• Always make sure the receiver, ESC, and battery are

properly secured.

• Always verify the propeller is on securely.

• Always ensure the servo reversing switches on the

transmitter are set correctly.

• Always verify the dual rates switch is set at where

you plan on flying. We recommend LOW rates

for your initial flying. The Bf-109G PNP is VERY

maneuverable on high rates and requires a lot of

experience to handle properly.

Center of Gravity Location

The CG Location is 2 3/8 inches from leading edge at the

“D” shaped indentation closest to the landing gear wheel

bump. This CG location has been determined with the

ParkZone 1800mAh 11.1V Li-Po battery installed.

Control Direction Test

1. Move the elevator stick on the transmitter forward

and aft to check elevator pitch control. When

the stick is pushed forward, the elevator should

move down.

2. When the elevator stick is moved aft the elevator

should move up.

3. Move the aileron stick left and right to check aileron

roll control. When the stick is pushed to the left,

the left aileron should move up and the right aileron

should move down.

4. With the aileron stick pushed right, the right

aileron should move up and the left aileron should

move down.

5. Move the rudder stick left and right to check yaw

control. When the stick is pushed to the right the

rudder should also move to the right (if viewed from

behind the airplane).

6. With the rudder stick pushed to the left, the

rudder should move to the left (if viewed from behind

the airplane).

If at any time during the test the controls respond in

the opposite direction, it may be necessary to reverse/

change the direction of operation of the flight controls.
Follow your transmitter instructions to change the

direction of the various flight controls.
