B) When the throttle control stick is at the idle position, the motor should be off. Moving the stick forward
should turn on the motor. Gradually moving the stick to the full forward position should result in the motor running at full
power.
☛
Some ESCs will give you more proportional control than others. Your ESC may also have a manual control
adjustment screw that must be adjusted prior to using the ESC. (Refer to your ESC's operating guide for further
information.)
●
Cycle the flight battery three times. When NiMH batteries are new they need to be used 2-3 times before they will
produce their top voltage and duration. To cycle them, simply charge the battery and then run the motor until the motor
stops. Allow the battery and motor to cool, then repeat this procedure two more times.
●
Check the condition of the transmitter batteries. They should be fully charged.
●
Check every glue joint in the Crazy Max EP to ensure that everything is tight and well-bonded.
●
Double-check the balance of the airplane. Do this with the flight battery installed.
●
Check the control surfaces. They should move in the correct direction and not bind.
●
Check to ensure that the control surfaces are moving the proper amount.
●
Check the receiver antenna. It should be fully extended and not coiled up inside the fuselage.
●
We do not suggest storing your airplane in an extremely hot environment (like the back of your car in direct sunlight)
for any length of time. The extreme heat could cause the foam to melt and possibly damage the fragile components of the
radio system, ESC or batteries.
The following are our general guidelines for your safety and the safety of others. Please read and
understand these safety guidelines before going out to the flying field for the first time.
●
Do not test-fly your model for the first time without first having it safety-checked by an experienced modeler.
●
Do not fly your model higher than approximately 400 feet within 3 miles of an airport without having an observer with
you. The observer should tell you about any full-size aircraft in your vicinity and you should always give the right-of-way
to full-scale aircraft.
●
When flying at a flying field with established rules, you should abide by those rules. You should not deliberately fly
your model in a reckless and/or dangerous manner.
●
While flying, you should not deliberately fly behind the flight line. If your model should inadvertently fly behind the
flight line, you should change course immediately.
●
You should complete a successful range check of your radio equipment prior to each new day of flying, or prior to the
first flight of a new or repaired model.
●
You should perform your initial turn after take- off away from the flightline and/or spectator area.
●
You should not knowingly operate your R/C radio system within 3 miles of a preexisting model club flying field
without a frequency sharing agreement with that club.
