LANDING<br />

As soon as you realise that there is a decrease in<br />

motor performance you should prepare for landing.<br />

Ensure that you have enough reserve to correct a<br />

wrong landing attempt and to commence a new<br />

approach. An ideal landing should be performed as<br />

follows:<br />

- Fly with a tail wind some distance parallel to<br />

the runway.<br />

- If a suitable height and distance to the runway<br />

is reached turn in a 180° curve in the direction<br />

of the runway; now against the wind.<br />

- Straighten the model to the runway and let it<br />

descend by reducing motor speed.<br />

- On approach to the landing point, lift the<br />

elevator slightly and control speed with the<br />

power of the motor. Insufficient speed may<br />

cause the plane to crash.<br />

- Reduce the throttle a little and let the model<br />

glide.<br />

- Just before touchdown, pull back the throttle<br />

stick fully and allow the model to land.<br />

- If the approach is too high increase motor<br />

speed and gain height for a new approach.<br />

AFTER THE FLIGHT AND STORING<br />

When your <strong>Skydreamer</strong> has<br />

landed successfully you should<br />

immediately disconnect the LiPo<br />

battery. Then switch off the<br />

transmitter. If another modeller would<br />

like to use your frequency advise<br />

them that your transmitter is now off.<br />

You must not use your transmitter<br />

again until you have ensured that<br />

your frequency is not being used by<br />

somebody else.<br />

If you do not intend to use the radio<br />

control unit for several weeks, you<br />

should remove the batteries from the<br />

transmitter. For information relating to<br />

the flying battery please refer to the<br />

manufacturer's instructions and follow<br />

the recommended advice.<br />

The special plastic material (EPO) from which the<br />

<strong>Skydreamer</strong> is mainly constructed, is very<br />

sensitive to high temperatures. Do not expose<br />

your aeroplane to direct sunlight for a long time<br />

and do not store it in a car which may be heated<br />

by the sun.<br />

If you store your <strong>Skydreamer</strong> at home<br />

make sure that no parts are jammed or twisted,<br />

any distortion could become permanent after a<br />

period of time and this will affect flight behaviour.<br />
