Control Test

You must test the controls prior to the first flight to ensure none of

the servos, linkages, or parts were damaged during shipping and

handling and that the controls function in the correct directions.
Turn the transmitter on first and lower the throttle stick and trim

completely. Then, plug the battery into the battery lead of the

receiver unit.

Note: The connectors on the battery lead are keyed to prevent

reverse polarity connection. However, if you force them

together in the wrong orientation and with the wrong

polarity it is still possible to damage the battery and/or

receiver unit.

Move the elevator stick on the transmitter forward and back to

check elevator pitch control. When the stick is pushed forward the

elevator should move down.

When the elevator stick is pulled back, the elevator should
move up.

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 right aileron should move down.

When the aileron stick is pushed to the right, the right aileron

should move up and the left aileron should move down.

Move the rudder stick left and right to check yaw control. When the

stick is pushed to the right, the rudder should also move right.

With the rudder stick pushed to the left, the rudder should

move left.

If at any time during the test the controls respond in the

opposite direction of operation of the flight controls, follow your

transmitter’s instructions to reverse the flight controls.
Once you’ve confirmed the flight control directions, all controls

should be functioning properly. However, if you continue to

encounter any problems with your Sukhoi SU-26

responding

properly to the transmitter, do not fly.
