PREFLIGHT CHECK.

1) Completely charge your trans-
mitter and receiver batteries before
your first day of flying.
2) Check every bolt and every glue
joint in the ANGEL 2000 GLIDER
to ensure that everything is tight and
well bonded.
3) Double check the balance of the
airplane. Do this with the fuel tank
empty.
4) Check the control surfaces. All
should move in the correct direction
and not bind in any way.
5) If your radio transmitter is
equipped with dual rate switches dou-
ble check that they are on the low rate
setting for your first few flights.
6) Check to ensure the control sur-
faces are moving the proper amount
for both low and high rate settings.
7) Check the receiver antenna. It
should be fully extended and not
coiled up inside the fuselage.
8) Properly balance the propeller.
An out of balance propeller will cause
excessive vibration which could lead
to engine and/or airframe failure.
