FLIGHT SETUP

Because transmitters other than the Tactic transmitters
may be used, the following information is included to
properly set the throws and C.G. (center-of-gravity) on
the AirCore Spitfi re.

The measurements are taken at the widest part of the control

surface with a minimum and maximum throw indicated.

Aileron Throw 1/4 –9/32" [6 –7 mm] 10 –12 deg. Up and down
Rudder Throw 1/4–11/32" [6 –8 mm] 13–17 deg. Left and right
Elevator Throw 5/32– 3/16" [4– 5 mm] 10–13 deg. Up and down

OPTIONAL INSTALLATION OF

THE LANDING GEAR

®

OPTIONAL INSTALLATION of ANTENNA

It’s recommended that you attempt to land before the motor
loses power and doesn’t have enough voltage to maintain
altitude. If you have a timer on your transmitter, set it for

4-minutes for the fi rst couple of fl ights. Then, gradually

increase the fl ight time to fi t your fl ying style. Allow at least an
extra 1-minute of fl ight time for a second attempt at landing.

If possible, always land directly into the wind.

Gradually reduce power when you are close to the landing

spot. When close to the ground and about to touch down,
pull the elevator stick back slightly to raise the nose of the
model and to “fl are” for landing.

Unplug and remove the battery from the model and

switch off the transmitter. Allow the motor to cool
between flights.

OPTIONAL INSTALLATION of WING CANNONS

RANGE CHECK

With the transmitter powered and the battery plugged into

the AirCore Module, walk 50’ [15m] from the aircraft and
check the control functions for proper and smooth operation.

FLYING THE AIRCORE AIRPLANES

Take off (or hand launch) directly into the wind.

Hand launch with throttle set at ¾ power, wings level and
with a slight toss (it is not necessary to aggressively throw
this model to hand launch it).

Once in the air, gain altitude to allow yourself suffi cient
reaction time to make a correction during fl ight.

Once you’re comfortable, adjust the aileron, elevator
and rudder trims one click at a time until the Spitfi re
fl ies straight and level with the control sticks centered.

You will quickly notice that the Spitfi re has the feel of a larger

R/C airplane. The airplane requires only small amounts of

control stick movement to fl y smoothly.
