Be sure to carry out a range check before the first
flight!
The transmitter battery and flight pack must be fully charged
according to the instructions.
Set the transmitter to range-check mode, and ask your
assistant to walk away from the model, carrying the
transmitter.
As he walks away your friend should constantly operate
one control function while you watch the model’s servos.
The servo not being operated should stay motionless up
to a range of around 60 m, and the other servo should
follow the transmitter stick movements smoothly and
immediately. If successful, repeat the check
with the
motor running. The effective range should not be
significantly reduced when the motor is running.
If you are not sure about anything, do not fly the model! If
you cannot eliminate the problem send the whole radio
control system (including battery, switch harness, servos)
to the manufacturer’s service department for checking.
The first flight ....
Do not test-glide this model!
The model is designed for hand-launching - always exactly
into the wind.
We recommend that you ask an experienced
modeller to help you during the first flight.
Allow the model to climb to a safe altitude, then adjust the
trims on the transmitter so that the model flies straight
ahead without any help from you.
At a safe height switch off the motor and make yourself
familiar with the model’s control response on the glide.
Carry out a dummy landing approach at a good height, so
that you will feel confident about the real landing when the
flight pack is flat.
Don’t attempt tightly banked turns close to the ground at
first, and especially not on the landing approach.
It is always better to land safely some distance away, and
have to walk to collect the model, than to risk damaging it
by dragging it close to your feet.
20. Safety
Safety is the First Commandment when flying any model
aircraft. Third party insurance should be considered a basic
essential. If you join a model club suitable cover will usually
be available through the organisation. It is your personal
responsibility to ensure that your insurance is adequate
(i.e. that its cover includes powered model aircraft).
Make it your job to keep your models and your radio control
system in perfect order at all times. Check the correct
charging procedure for the rechargeable batteries used in
your RC set. Make use of all sensible safety systems and
precautions which are advised for your system. An excellent
source of practical accessories is the MULTIPLEX main
catalogue, as our products are designed and manufactured
exclusively by practising modellers for other practising
modellers.
We - the MULTIPLEX team - hope you have many hours
of pleasure building and flying your new model.
Always fly with a responsible attitude. You may think
that flying low over other people’s heads is proof of your
piloting skill; others know better. The real expert does
not need to prove himself in such childish ways. It is in
all our interests that you let other pilots know that this
is also what you think. Always fly in such a way that
you do not endanger yourself or others. Bear in mind
that even the best RC system in the world is subject to
outside interference. No matter how many years of
accident-free flying you have under your belt, you have
no idea what will happen in the next minute.
