Pre Flight Check - MegaTech INTERCEPTOR Flight Manual

NOTE: THE TRANSMITTER IS ALwAYS THE FIRST TO BE
SwITCHED ON, AND THE LAST TO BE SwITCHED OFF!
PRE-FLIgHT CHECk
Before you switch ON your Interceptor ALWAYS make sure to release the throttle control stick (left) so
the propellers do not start up unexpectedly when the Interceptor is switched ON. Always follow the
safety start up procedure.
RADIO RANGE CHECK
Important Tip: Always perform a motor-check and radio-range check with the help of a friend or parent.
Doing so alone may cause the Interceptor to get away from you and cause damage.
1) Make sure both the Interceptor and transmitter power is 'OFF' .
2) Make sure the throttle control stick is in the "down" (back) position.
3) Now turn ON the transmitter, and then turn ON the
Interceptor. Make sure to keep the antenna collapsed.
4) Have a friend/parent hold the nose of the Interceptor's
fuselage with the tail pointing away from him/her and
away from any loose clothing.
5) Walk 25-ft away from Interceptor.
6) Check the motor and directional controls as follows.
Always remember to point the transmitter at the plane.
MOTOR CHECK
• Advance the throttle very slowly — The propellers should speed up.
• Move the throttle stick back — The propellers should slow down and then stop
DIRECTIONAL CONTROL CHECK
• Advance the throttle ¼ forward and hold it there.
• Move the right control stick to the right — The right motor should slow down and
• Move the right control stick to the left — The left motor should slow down and
7) Once you have finished turn the Interceptor OFF and then turn OFF the transmitter.
If your Interceptor does not respond from 25 feet away, do NOT attempt to fly. Contact Megatech at
