5. Чогултуу жана орнотуу

The ATOMRC Flying Fish is designed for quick and easy assembly, with most components pre-installed. No gluing or soldering is required for the PNP and FPV versions.

5.1. Basic Assembly

1. Attach Wings: Carefully slide the wings onto the main fuselage. Ensure they are fully seated and secured according to the included screws and nuts.
2. Attach Tail Section: Connect the horizontal and vertical stabilizers to the rear of the fuselage. Secure them firmly with the provided hardware.
3. Пропеллерди орнотуу: Install the propellers onto the motor shafts. Ensure they are oriented correctly for thrust (usually indicated by markings on the propeller and motor).
4. Receiver Installation (PNP/FPV versions): If not already installed, connect your compatible RC receiver to the flight controller/ESC unit. Refer to your receiver's manual for binding procedures with your transmitter.
5. Батареяны жайгаштыруу: Secure the recommended 3S 750mAh battery in the designated battery compartment. Ensure it is balanced for optimal flight performance.

The FPV version comes with a pre-installed ATOMRC TX500 VTX, Foxeer Razer Nano Camera, and 5.8G Antenna.

1. Антенна туташуу: Ensure the 5.8G antenna is securely connected to the VTX.
2. Күйгүзүү: Once the main flight battery is connected, the FPV system should power on.
3. Канал тандоо: Refer to the ATOMRC TX500 VTX manual (if provided separately or available online) for instructions on changing FPV channels to match your FPV goggles/monitor.

5.3. Учуу алдындагы текшерүүлөр

• Башкаруу бетин текшерүү: With the transmitter and receiver bound, verify that all control surfaces (ailerons, elevator, rudder) move correctly and in the right direction in response to your stick inputs.
• Motor Test: Briefly test the motors at low throttle to ensure they spin freely and in the correct direction. Keep clear of propellers.
• Тартуу борбору (CG): Ensure the aircraft's center of gravity is within the recommended range. This is crucial for stable flight. Adjust battery position if necessary.

6. Иштөө нускамалары

6.1. Биринчи каттам

For your first flight, choose a calm day with minimal wind in a large, open area free of obstacles.

1. Ишке киргизүү: Hand launch the Flying Fish with a gentle but firm forward toss, applying about 70-80% throttle.
2. Чыгуу: Allow the aircraft to climb to a safe altitude before attempting turns or complex maneuvers.
3. кесүү: Adjust the trim on your transmitter to achieve stable, level flight without constant stick input.
4. Basic Maneuvers: Practice gentle turns, climbs, and descents. Get comfortable with the aircraft's response.
5. Конуу: Reduce throttle and glide the aircraft towards a clear landing spot. Gently flare (pull up on the elevator) just before touchdown to slow down and land softly.

6.2. FPV Flight (FPV Version Only)

FPV flight requires practice and a good understanding of your equipment. It is recommended to first become proficient in line-of-sight flying.

1. Goggle/Monitor Setup: Ensure your FPV goggles or monitor are powered on and tuned to the correct VTX channel.
2. Spotter Recommended: For safety, especially during initial FPV flights, have a spotter with you to maintain visual line of sight of the aircraft.
3. Жай баштоо: Begin with gentle FPV flights, staying close and at a moderate altitude.
4. Көнүгүү: FPV flying takes practice. Start with basic forward flight and turns before attempting more advanced maneuvers.

7. Техникалык тейлөө

• Тазалык: After each flight, wipe down the aircraft to remove dirt, grass, or debris.
• Пропеллер текшерүү: Regularly check propellers for cracks, chips, or bends. Replace damaged propellers immediately as they can cause vibrations and reduce performance.
• Мотор инспекциясы: Ensure motors spin freely and are free of obstructions. Check for any loose wires.
• Control Surface Hinges: Inspect hinges for wear or damage. Ensure smooth, free movement of all control surfaces.
• Батареяга кам көрүү: Store LiPo batteries at storage voltage (around 3.8V per cell) if not used for extended periods. Do not leave batteries fully charged or fully discharged.
• EPP Repair: Minor damage to the EPP foam can often be repaired with foam-safe glue.
