Set the Control Throws

● Make sure that the overload won't be added to each servo at the time of max operation. In case of
an overload, reduce the travel adjustment in the transmitter.
Do not fly before confirming the
correct location of the C.G.
■ If the CG is incorrect, the model will fly
badly and could lead to a crash.
● Use a ruler, an inclinometer, or a
protractor to accurately measure and
set the control throw of each control
surface in left/right or up/ down same
throw.
Do the first flight in low rate.
■ High Rates are aggressive, so ease into using low rates for general flying.
