Default RE: What are the things to remember for first flight?

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is a first flight and your on your own, or just things you want to check for the first flight of the day. If it is a very first flight, I would ask someone experienced to fly it and set the trims and expo so it would be comfortable for you to fly. Also, get on a "buddy box" with an experienced pilot or instructor and get a "feel" for the aircraft before taking it on your own - you may want to also consider lessons.

If it is just the first flight of the day, I would add to make sure all your transmitter switches are set to low rates.

Hope this helps.
