Installing the Flight Battery
Your T-28 Trojan S RTF transmitter comes pre-bound to the aircraft, so
binding should not be necessary.
Keep the aircraft and transmitter away from large metal objects, wireless
sources or other transmitters while installing the battery.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po flight battery from the
aircraft receiver when not flying to avoid over-discharging the
battery. Batteries discharged to a voltage lower than the lowest approved
voltage may become damaged, resulting in loss of performance and
potential fire when batteries are charged.
CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller. When
armed, the motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle
movement.

Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)
aircraft after use to prevent trickle discharge. Fully
charge your Li-Po battery before storing it. During
storage, make sure battery charge does not fall
below 3V per cell.
For your first flights, set your transmitter timer or a
stopwatch to 4 minutes. Adjust your timer for longer
or shorter flights once you have flown the model.
Flights of 6 minutes or more are achievable if using
proper throttle management.
NOTICE: Repeated flying to LVC will damage the battery.
When a Li-Po battery is discharged below 3V per
cell, it will not hold a charge. The aircraft’s ESC
protects the flight battery from over-discharge using
Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). Before the battery charge
decreases too much, LVC removes power supplied
to the motor. Power to the motor quickly decreases
and increases, showing that some battery power is
reserved for flight control and safe landing.
When the motor power pulses, land the aircraft
immediately and recharge the flight battery.
Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the
Landing
Wind 0–5 mph
(0–8 km/h)

the aircraft pointed into the wind and the wings level.
Approximately 1 foot (30cm) from the ground, fully
lower the throttle and gently pull back on the Elevator
stick to bleed off airspeed and flare for landing.
CAUTION: Never catch a flying aircraft in
your hands. Doing so could cause
personal injury and damage to the aircraft.
After Flying
1 ft (30 cm)
1. Lower the throttle stick completely and do not
move the steering stick. Wait at least 5 seconds.
2. Disconnect and remove the battery from the
aircraft. Keep hands away from the propeller.
3. Power off the transmitter.
4. Fully charge the aircraft battery.
5. Remove the battery after charging is complete.
NOTICE: When you are finished flying, never
leave the aircraft in direct sunlight or in a hot,
enclosed area such as a car. Doing so can
damage the foam.
NOTICE: Always disconnect the battery from the
aircraft before powering off the transmitter or
injury and damage may result.
