- Kukhazikitsa: For hand launch, hold the glider firmly and launch it into the wind with a gentle, level throw while applying throttle. For ground launch, ensure sufficient runway and apply throttle smoothly.
- Kuwongolera Ndege:
- Chikepe: Controls pitch (nose up/down).
- Chowongolera: Controls yaw (nose left/right).
- Ailerons: Controls roll (wing tilt), used for banking turns.
- Thonje: Controls motor speed and altitude.
- Kuyenda: Once at desired altitude, reduce or cut throttle to enter gliding mode. Utilize thermals for extended flight.
- Kufika: Approach the landing area into the wind. Reduce throttle and gently guide the glider down, flaring just before touchdown to reduce speed.
- Pambuyo pa Ulendo Wapaulendo: Disconnect the flight battery from the glider first, then turn off your transmitter. Inspect the glider for any damage.
Kusamalira
Regular maintenance will extend the lifespan and performance of your glider.
- Kuyeretsa: Wipe down the airframe with a soft, damp cloth after each flight to remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Kuyendera: Before and after each flight, inspect all components for cracks, dents, loose connections, or wear. Pay close attention to wings, tail, propeller, and control linkages.
- Kuwona kwa Propeller: Ensure the propeller is free from nicks or cracks. A damaged propeller can cause vibrations and reduce efficiency. Replace if necessary.
- Kusamalira Battery: Store batteries in a cool, dry place. Do not leave batteries fully charged or fully discharged for extended periods. Follow manufacturer guidelines for battery charging and storage.
- Posungira: Store the glider in a safe place, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and moisture. Consider disassembling wings for compact storage if needed.
