Check Control Surface Direction

The Second thing that has to be done is to make sure all the
control surfaces move in the correct direction.
1. Move the right control stick on the transmitter to the
right as shown in the diagram. Observe the direction the
ailerons move. The right aileron should move up and the left
aileron should move down. Moving the control stick to the
left should make the ailerons move the opposite way. If the
ailerons do not respond as described, reverse the direction
using the reversing switch for the aileron on the face of the
transmitter. If necessary, refer to the instructions in the
Futaba instruction manual to identify and operate the
reversing switch.
2. Move the right stick down and observe the direction the
elevator moves. Moving the right stick down should make
the elevator move up.
3. Move the left stick to the right and observe the rudder.
Moving the stick to the right should make the rudder (and
the nose wheel) move to the right. If necessary, use the
reversing switches on the transmitter to make the rudder
respond in the correct direction.
Note that moving the elevator stick down moves the
elevator up (which, in flight, pushes the tail down, thus
increasing the angle of the wing and making the model
climb). The best way to keep this in mind is to think in
terms of a pilot in an airplane. He pulls the control stick
back to "pull up" the nose of the plane.
