PRECAUTIONS

@

Connect

the

receiver,

servos,

switches

and

battery

as

shown

in

the

figure.

Extend

the

transmitter

and

receiver

antennas

to

their

full

length.

@

Turn

on

the

transmitter

power

switch,

then

turn

on

the

receiver

power

switch.

The

servos

will

go

to

their

neutral

position.

Move

the

transmitter

sticks

one

at

a

time

to

check

that

each

servo

follows

its

control

stick

movement.

@

Connect

the

pushrods

to

the

servos

and

check

that

the

direction

of

travel

of

each

servo

matches

the

direction

of

movement

of

its

control

stick.

If

a

servo

does

not

move

in

the

proper

direction,

switch

its

direction

with

the

servo

reversing

function.

@

Operate

each

servo

horn

over

its

full

stroke

and

check

that

the

pushrod

does

not

bind

or

is

not

too

loose.

Unreasonable

force

applied

to

the

servo

horn

will

adversely

affect

the

servo

and

drain

the

battery

pack

very

quickly.

Make

the

travel

of

each

control

mechanism

somewhat

larger

than

the

full

stroke

(including

trim)

of

the

servo

horn.

Adjust

the

servo

horns

so

that

they

move

smoothly

even

when

the

trim

lever

and

stick

are

operated

simultaneously

in

the

same

direction.

@

Be

alert

for

noise.

This

set

is

noise-resistant,

but

not

completely

immune

to

noise.

The

use

of

noiseless

parts

is

recommended.

@

When

installing

the

switch harness,

cut

a

rectangu-

lar

hole

slightly

larger

than

the

full

stroke

of

the

switch

and

install

the

switch

so

that

it

moves

smoothly

from

ON

to

OFF.

Also

do

this

when

the

switch

is

installed

inside

the

fuselage

and

is

turned

@

After

are

complete,

perform

a

check

by

collapsing

to

its

full

length

and

operating

the

transmitter

from

a

distance

of

20
