I was trying to visualize you moving around your plane in my minds eye and not thinking about preparations for flying. Please follow your owners manual as far as the sequence to use with your transmitter and receiver. My FM set makes no mention of this in its manual as best I can tell but my new 2.4gh does.

Folks just want you to have a positive experience and don't wish to see you hurt. But you can't always have someone around and I felt that if you desired to give it a go on your own the least I could do was give you a process that I hoped would keep you from harm's way. Its what you requested.

Its not hard but there is some danger. If you aren't comfortable with any of it wait for assistance. If you decide to go ahead do a couple of dry runs going thru every sequence except skip the glow starter on the plug. You don't want it to fire until you really mean it.

Take care and let us know how you make out,

Clay
