Testing the Mode (Optional)
You may check to see what mode you are in after
power up, but before pulling the throttle back to arm
the motor.
1. Push and hold the throttle stick forward.
(The motor should not run since it is not armed.)
2. While holding the throttle stick forward, push
the right stick all the way to the right and hold
it there.
• If the left control surface deflects up, holds for
about half a second, then reduces to about half
way up, you are in Smart-Trak Standard Mode.
™
• If the left control surface deflects up and stays
up the same amount continuously, you are in
Expert Mode.
If a Crash Occurs
1. If you happen to crash and part of the foam wing
or tail breaks, it can be repaired using packing
tape to cover missing pieces.
2. If damage is severe or if wing or tail is bent,
replace damaged parts immediately. See page 28
for a complete replacement parts list.

Important: Control Alignment
Tail flaps must be level or nearly level with no slack
in the control lines or the plane will not fly well. See
page 10 if adjustment is necessary.
