22. Install the float set using 3mm screws threaded into the blind nuts in the
fuselage. If you plan to leave them permanently, use Loctite. If you plan to switch
back to wheels, do not use Loctite, but check your screws for tightness frequently.
23. It is wise to package your receiver and ESC inside plastic bags, using caulk to seal
the wire exists, before float-flying.
We recommend 30 degrees right and left water-rudder throw.
We use a separate channel for water rudder on our receiver, and a mix from the
rudder to the water rudder to activate it. This allows many tuning functions for the
water rudder.
Your aircraft will handle differently with floats attached. Test fly cautiously to get used
to its new handling characteristics, before attempting aerobatics.
You will find that your aircraft can be changed from wheels to floats, or vice-versa,
very quickly. Our record is under 4 minutes.
