Default Pre-flight check.

Sound like you are ready to go!!!!!
Check controls!
Check radio!
Make sure batteries are charged.
Test run motor and adjust. THen take off prop. so it won't get broke!!!!!!! Center all controls and trim, know comes the hard part . Face the wind and gently toss it like it is a glider . Don't throw it to hard and make sure there are no obstruction. Make changes fore glide path . After getting it to glide Put prop back on go for it . With out a instructor you will have a better chance flying the bird . Test flight of 10 to15 feet will do little or no damage . The tests are with out Power .
Slow easy movement on controls when you try flying it .
Start it up and go for it. GOOD LUCK and happy flying
