You may need to pulse but not hold the right lever for easy adjustment.
This function depends on the rear rudder, please note that if the bird responds slowly to your command, you should throttle
up for better performance.

1. If your bird is still turning to the RIGHT after
trimming without pushing the direction lever,
put a clear label on the LEFT upper wing
(bottom side) about 2.75” from the tip to
correct the imbalance (pic.7).

2. If your bird is still turning to the LEFT after
trimming without pushing the direction lever,
put a clear label on the RIGHT upper wing
(bottom side) about 2.75” from the tip to correct the imbalance (pic.8).
3.You can add more than one label onto the wing to obtain proper balance. However, too many labels will increase the weight of the
wing thus affecting the flying performance.
Flying techniques for advanced users:
1. Cut the rudder and elevator along the cutting lines indicated.
2.You can use these to adjust the flight path before flying, but we suggest
you use the steering trimmer first.
