U Bob Underwood U ITS FLY1T4G TIME over country just selected parts sun warm breezes grace flora fauna year around True hardy souls brave icy winds snow assorted cold things launch creations crisp blue bulk us however have ignored lawn chopped sanded balsa glued pieces magnificent mass now await warm wonderful winds summer Are ready items NewComers indicated wanted column some sort checklist pre-flight Thats laudable thought quite franldy forgot early modeling days guess Im type says aw wont forget wont make mistake turn right around todays vernacular theredone wife family memory listmaker used accuse having lists keep track lists honesty must prevail 41 years married life has repeatedly bailed out need remember situations Actually several preflight checks need develop reach way back construction period model Granted cases pre-preflight checks one-timers very rurpoitant kits construction articles built around step check-off system should lulled false sense security assuming everything place correct Remember NewComers steps processes foreign point Double-check joints bolts nuts connections everything second preflight comes model setting workbench its fabulously finished finery Look whole model very critical fashion Divide task sections Construction fit 1 pieces go together correctly fit solid 2 Are pieces alignment Look model angle eyeball relative alignment stab wing vertical fin engine fuselage centerline etc 3 anything warped Sight wingtips along trailing leading edges look twists same surfaces Check certain fuselage bowed right left along top centeriine Granted checked built model remember houses warp through climatic changes 4 its control line RC model tug movable surfaces certain youve anchored hinges adequately time gentle hinged surfaces move relatively freely may have put surfaces together now B Mechanical linkages 1 Are nuts bolts tight Remember during construction youve 14 Model Aviation WANTED No specific requests surfaced NewComers month about providing some happened situations bunch stuff out several times belicrank bolt tight servo anns have tightened screw place Are devises snapped place restrained Are wheel collars tight methodical take part model step step 2 fuel tank right side up vents point toward top model Some models require tank inserted fuselage upside down workbench model has gotten field tank upside down feed line connected pickup tank Are lines free kinks tight tubing clunk free move hanging up back tank 3 Dont forget AMA number name address somewhere model 4 Put model ground roll Does track true 5 Check CG no fuel Dont cheat say well its close its actually tailheavy 6 Check radio operation assure surfaces move right direction Stand behind model check ailerons rudder Quite franldy point everyone has guilty too much haste checking things least once modeling career depending upon available time money perhaps once Theres natural tendency want get thing air Resist temptation until youre absolutely Greater Des Moines AW certain everything correct can make ask another experienced modeler look over critically Try choose someone wont spend time being critical job just because doesnt meet super construction standard rather just need know whether looks like its gonna fly safe Its also important preflight weather Its very common declare model instructor readyonly find weather marginal Dont let mind set force overlooking poor conditions have significant investment time money yourself riding first ifight third pre-flight involves equipment What need take field Some modelers seem wind up enough spare parts tools rebuild entire model flying site Others seem depend solely fellow modelers borrow something goes awry Somewhere middle fine Franidy multitude model types have list will somewhat customized Certainly list should contain 1 Charged batteriesstarting flight 2 Spare props 3 Wrenches screwdrivers dont forget hex wrenches wheel collars metric some engines 4 Glow plugs sailplaners 5 An assortment bolts nuts screws washers 6 equipmenthat sunglasses AMA card frequency control required something drink like water soda certain parts country pop whatever 7 Hi-start hammer stake transmitter control line handle lines something light fuse free flight Actually think can see list will have personalized refined over period time fourth preflight occurs field commonly associated term preflight considered safety related Again very specific items relate specific types models pick choose 1 Before assembling model check over interior mechanisms installation Screws place plugs pushrods attached etc 2 Tug control surfaces 3 Check props spinner tighten necessary Look nicks cracks Wood props compress over time will come loose checked regularly 4 Glow plug tight too 5 Wing hold-down rubber bands good condition Fuel eats alive short timeespecially its hot 6 devises locked closed 7 Check control lines proper end fittings kinks rust etc Id
