At start these planes were small ones but currently there has been an improvement to bigger ones which may be difficult for one to fly. Before you fly these planes it is expected that you perform a serious check of the weather conditions as to whether they will influence flight negatively. To the small planes this is not a must but for large ones this is a mandatory step.

When the weather I suitable the next thing is to identify loose bolts and nuts and tighten them up and at the same time assemble all you need. Alongside this check that the central gravity is in a place that the plane will be in a state of balance. Before flying the machine get an experienced pilot to help you before the exercise and even on the start of your first flight so that he can note anything that needs improvement or further checkup.

Use the control or the radio in the most effective way to ensure that when you fly the plane it goes in the direction intended. Be at the behind most part of the plane, at its tail, facing forward and the pull back the stick. To check the rudder do it in the same way.

Be sure that the carburetor opens as it should when the stick is pushed. This shows that the controls are properly working. To save the battery from unnecessary use by unset flaps which releases a buzzing sound use the radio to control them.

Gasoline is termed as the best fuel for these small planes for they are easy to operate if they are started properly. In addition to that the following should also be properly installed the engine, the fuel filter and the tank.

Normally the engines of this planes have a description of the best fit propellers for them and so to ensure maximum performance note the description in manual. When this is set then start the engine and leave it running for one or two minutes. It is important that you take care when taking off. For starters it is necessary that one uses the available runaway until you are comfortable with flying the plane.

When you satisfied that the roll is enough, pull up the elevator in a slow pace till it breaks the ground. Grasp back the pressure to see how the model gets up, if it steepens release slowly the behind pressure. When your departure is fully established consider striking the retract switch and then pull the gear. When a plane is big be careful not to fly it as high as the eyes may see as if it is still near.
