Test-flying, flying notes
- Read the sections in the Safety Notes entitled "Routine pre-flight
checks" and "Flying the model" before attempting to fly the
model for the first time.
- For your first few flights please wait for a day with no more than
a gentle breeze.
- A good flying site consists of a large, flat, open grassy field,
devoid of trees, fences, high-tension overhead cables etc.
- Repeat the check of all the working systems.
- Ask an experienced modelling friend to hand-launch the aircraft
for you. He should be capable of giving the model a reasonably
strong, flat launch.
- The model should always be launched directly into any wind.
- With the motor running at full-throttle, give the aeroplane a firm
launch directly into any breeze, with the fuselage and wings level.
- Keep the A-4 Skyhawk flying straight and level at first; don't turn
the model while it is still close to the ground.
- Adjust the control surface trims if necessary, so that the model
flies straight with a reasonable rate of climb "hands off".
- Check the model's response to control commands; you may
need to increase or reduce the control surface travels after the
first landing.
- Please note that the stated control surface travels are no more
than a guideline for the first few flights. Most pilots will need to
adjust the final settings to suit individual preferences.
- Check the aeroplane's stalling speed at a safe height.
- Keep the model's speed well above the stall for the landing
approach.
- If you needed to adjust the trims during the test-flight, correct the
length of the appropriate pushrod once the model is back on the
ground, then return the transmitter trims to centre so that full trim
travel is available to both sides of neutral for subsequent flights.
