Test Flights

• Trim rudder: Make sure that the trim rudder is slightly to the right to compensate for the yaw caused by the motor torque. This position gives the electric rudder its full range.
• Check the electric rudder’s functionality: When you tilt the smartphone to the right, the rudder should turn to the right, and vice versa.

Note: If the rudder moves in the wrong direction, follow the instructions in The Setting Screen .

Keep in mind:

• The field where you fly should be at least 500 × 500 feet (150 ×150 meters) without obstacles like trees and buildings - for example, a soccer field or baseball field.
• The wind should be calm. Strong wind can cause turbulence.
