taKeoFF
general
The force needed by an aeroplane to remain airborne depends on
its airspeed. When flying into the wind, the ground speed of the
aircraft needs to be reduced depending on the wind speed.
A tailwind requires a greater ground speed to generate lift. You
should therefore always take off and land against the wind.
Beginners can find it difficult when the aircraft is flying towards the
pilot, as the left and right controls are reversed. This won't remain a

Now we're good to go! But before liftoff, make sure that you have read this manual through completely.
Connect the battery to the aircraft. Put it into the battery compart-
ment and then close it.

It is recommended that the aircraft is thrown into the air by some-
one else so that the pilot can be ready to react to unexpected flying
manoeuvres at any time.
the procedure for launching should be as follows:
• Check rudder function.
The plane should be thrown as horizontally as possible to achieve an
easily controllable altitude. If thrown downwards it becomes faster
and may be difficult to level up before it hits the ground.
problem for long if the pilot has had prior experience of operating
remote controlled vehicles. An extremely effective way to overcome
this is to practise flying a model aircraft using a flight simulation
programme on a PC or laptop.
It is recommended that complete beginners seek the help of an
experienced model aircraft flier when practising taking off for the
first few times and only take over control of the transmitter once the
aircraft is flying at a safe altitude.
Now use the ON/OFF switch to switch on the transmitter.
WARNING!! Push the throttle control down first. The transmitter
beeps and automatically ends the binding process.
• Hold the model by the fuselage at its centre of gravity.
• Open the throttle, check the intensity of thrust.
• Throw the aircraft forward horizontally in one swift, powerful
movement.
• Use the controls to control the altitude of the plane, climbing at a
flat angle.
If the throw is directed steeply upward, the flight speed decreases
and the ensuing breaking away from the airflow (no more lifting
forces) is likely to result in a crash.
