I'm Back...
 
After two years (yes...) I finally have some time to devote to RC again!

My airplane only has one flight. (I've paid two years of club and AMA dues for ONE FLIGHT. :-() But now I hope to fly again!

What should I check for before another flight with the instructor?

Thanks!

As far as checking your plane out, check everything and cycle all batteries. Welcome back and Good Luck, Dave

The thing i do and it really helps, practically after each day of flying, is to really clean the plane. (i dont know if this is a new plane or not), but see if the covering needs to be tightened up a bit or check if the stripes are coming off. If my plane sits for more then a week, i vacume it inside to get rid of the dust, expecially on the servos. Check all the push rod connectors see that everything is working. In your home, turn on the tx and the rx and play around with the controls, check if everything is wroking correctly. Play around for a few minutes. HAVE FUN!

Yubby, it has been quite a while. You'll really enjoy "Pick On Ken day". It's every Friday so start thinking of stuff.

Clean up the plane and run a little fuel through it. Make sure all the controls run smooooth and charge every thing up.

Welcome back. :)

A quick question about my igniter: what color should the plug be when lit? Bright white or orange?

Thanks a lot! (Aahhh... I love time.)

Orange, the brighter the better.
