Check the response of each control

• Aileron high-rate: 3 rolls in 4 seconds;

low-rate: 3 rolls/6 sec

• Elevator high-rate: to give a smooth

square corner; low-rate gives approx.

130 ft diameter loop

• Rudder: high-rate 30-35° for stall

turns; low rate maintains knife-edge

Change ATV (for high rates),

and Dual Rate settings (for

low rates) to achieve desired

responses.

B. Reduce incidence

C. Increase incidence

4. Center of

Gravity

Method 1: Roll into near

vertically-banked turn.

Method 2: Roll model inverted

A1. Nose drops

B1. Tail drops

A2. Lots of forward stick (down

elevator) required to maintain level

B. Add weight to nose

5. Tip weight

(coarse

adjustment)

Fly model straight & level

upright. Check aileron trim

A. Model continues straight up.

B. Model veers left

C. Model veers right

D. Model rolls right

A. No adjustment

B. Add right thrust

C. Reduce right thrust

D. Put trim tab under left

wing tip *

7. Up/Down

Thrust

Fly the model on normal path

into any wind, parallel to strip,

at a distance of around 100

meters from you (elevator trim

should be neutral as per Test

3). Pull it into a vertical climb

& neutralize elevator

A. Model continues straight up

B. Model pitches up (goes toward top of

model)

C. Model pitches down (goes toward

bottom of model)

A. No adjustment

B. Add down thrust

C. Reduce down thrust

8. Tip weight

(fine adjustment)

Method 1: fly the model as per

Test 6 and pull into a

reasonably small diameter

loop (one loop only)

Method 2: fly the model as per

Test 6 and then push into an

outside loop (one only, fairly

tight)

A. Model comes out with wings level

B. Model comes out right wing low

C. Model comes out left wing low

A. No adjustment necessary

B. Add weight to left tip

C. Add weight to right tip

9. Aileron

differential

Method 1: fly model toward

you & pull into a vertical

climb before it reaches

you. Neutralize controls,

then half-roll the model.

Method 2: fly model on

normal pass and do three or

more rolls

Method 3: fly the model

straight and level and

gently rock the aileron

stick back and forth

A. No heading changes

B. Heading change opposite to roll

command (i.e. heading veers left

after right roll)

C. Heading change in direction of roll

command

A. Roll axis on model centerline

B. Roll axis off to same side of model

as roll command (i.e. right roll, roll

axis off right wing tip)

C. Roll axis off to opposite side of

model as roll command
