Aerobird control horns
I'm new to powered flight (have flown 2 gliders for a while). Just got a chance to fly my new Aerobird for the first time this morning.
It's a good idea to test glide and land the plane before giving the battery a chance to die. I'm glad I did. At altitude, I tried cutting the engine and could not get the plane to turn. On landings, I couldn't slow the plane down or even come close to a flare.
I'm ready to get back out there, but need to move the control lines down to the lower hole on the control horn. My question is, exactly how do you do that ? Do you have to remove the tiny screw on the horn, and if so, how do you get a screwdriver to that screw?
Thanks in advance.
