5. Instruccions de funcionament
The E-flite T-28 Trojan 1.2m is equipped with advanced technologies to enhance your flying experience.
5.1 Flight Modes and Technologies
- AS3X Technology: This system works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence, making the aircraft feel larger and more stable.
- SAFE Select Technology (Optional-Use):
- Mode principiant: Limits pitch and bank angles, and self-levels the aircraft when controls are released. Ideal for new pilots.
- Mode intermedi: Offers more freedom in pitch and bank, but still provides self-leveling.
- Experienced Mode: Provides full control without any pitch or bank limits or self-leveling.
Refer to your transmitter manual for instructions on how to activate and switch between SAFE Select modes.
5.2 Comprovacions prèvies al vol
- Ensure your transmitter battery is fully charged.
- Confirm the flight battery in the aircraft is fully charged and properly secured.
- Perform a range check of your radio system.
- Check all control surfaces for correct movement and trim.
- Verify propeller is securely attached and free from damage.
5.3 Enlairament
For ground takeoffs, position the aircraft into the wind. Gradually increase throttle, applying slight up-elevator as needed to lift off. For hand launches, ensure SAFE Select is active (if desired) and gently toss the aircraft forward and slightly upward while applying throttle.
