Flight adjustment
1. F4U will fly better with fully-charged batteries.
2. Keep flight straight: when you find it is difficult to fly straightly, please adjust the trim on
the transmitter. For example, when you find F4U always fly leftward please push the trim
on the transmitter inverse direction---right, as this will move the rudder to compensate.
3. Keep flight horizontal: when you find it is difficult to fly F4U straightly, please adjust the
trim on the transmitter. For example, when you find it always fly upward; please push the
trim on the transmitter toward the top, as this will adjust the position of the elevator.
Flight attention
1. Never fly in strong wind.
2. Do not fly at any place where another same-frequency model is flying.
3. Taking off:
Always take off toward the wind;
lf you want to launch F4U by hands, maximize the power(including the micro
adjustment)and run several meters to accelerate yourself, at last throw it horizontally.
lf you want to launch F4U on the ground, maximize the power and let it accelerate, keep it
running straightly, after it runs more than 60 feet, you can pull the elevator joy stick, and it
will take off.
4. Course: you need only 30% of the maximum power to keep F4U flying. lt is a good
idea to fly with power for a while and glide for a while .
In this way You can increase your maximum flight time and familiarize yourself with
landing approaches.
5. Landing: Before landing, switch off the power, fly toward the wind, and when F4U flies
near to the ground, you may pull the elevator joystick and it will land gently. It really
needs practice, although it sounds easy. it may be difficult for yo until you do this many
times.
