Operating and Flying the Biplane
Preparing for Take-Off
1. Choose a day when the wind is light.
The ribbon attached to the Radio Transmitter
antenna should be blowing slightly (not greater than 30 degrees) and not be
blowing straight out. Find a wide-open field.
2. Turn ON the Radio Transmitter.
3. Face the Biplane into the wind. Move the left hand control stick all the way forward so
both motors are running at full power.
Note: It is recommended that two people work together to hand launch the Biplane. One
should control the Remote Control and one will launch the Biplane.
4. With the Biplane tilted at about 10 degrees, propel and release it into the wind.
5. Let the Biplane climb to and fly at about 50 to 300 feet high. By moving the Climb and Turn
control sticks you can change speed and direction.
6. To steer the Biplane, move the right Turn control stick to the left to steer to the left, and
right to steer it right. Move the Turn Control Stick slightly to adjust for minor changes in
direction and tilt of the Biplane.
7. Note that letting go of the control sticks will automatically bring them to a center position.
This will cause the Biplane to resume normal flight.
8. Normal flight time for one full charge is about four to six minutes. When the battery begins
to reach the end of its power, the red LED light on the Radio Transmitter will light up,
indicating low transmitter power. When this occurs, IMMEDIATELY LAND THE BIPLANE.
9. To bring in the Biplane for landing, glide the Biplane down against the wind. Move the
left Climb control stick toward the center to slow the Propellers. Move the right Turn control
stick to adust for direction. Continue to decrease the Propeller speed and direction until you
bring them to a stop and land the Biplane.
10. Turn OFF the Radio Transmitter.
Inspection, Maintenance and Cleaning
1. All inspections, maintenance, and cleaning should be performed only by an adult.
2. Always make certain the Biplane is unplugged and that the Transmitter is OFF before
performing any inspection, adjustments, maintenance or cleaning.
Important: If damage is caused due to a crash; your warranty is void.
3. Never use solvents or liquid cleaners to clean the Biplane. Use of solvents or liquid cleaners
will damage the styrofoam. Use only a dry, soft cloth for cleaning.
