Flying

We recommend only ﬂ ying your Sbach 342 in light

winds. Always avoid ﬂ ying near houses, trees, wires

and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid

ﬂ ying in areas where there are many people, such

as busy parks, schoolyards or soccer ﬁ elds. Consult

local laws and ordinances before choosing a

location to ﬂ y your aircraft.

Place the Sbach 342 in position for takeoff (facing

into the wind if ﬂ ying outdoors). Gradually increase

the throttle to ¾ to full, and steer with the rudder.

Pull back gently with the elevator and climb

to check trim. Once the trim is adjusted, begin

exploring the ﬂ ight envelope of the Sbach 342.

Failure to lower the throttle stick

and trim to the lowest possible

positions during a crash could

result in damage to the ESC in

the receiver unit, which may

require replacement.

The Sbach 342 is equipped with

Over Current Protection (OCP).

This feature protects the ESC

from overheating. OCP stops the motor when the

transmitter throttle is set high and the propeller

cannot turn. The OCP will only activate when throttle

is positioned just above 1/2 throttle. After the ESC

stops the motor, fully lower the throttle to re-arm

the ESC.

Note: Crash damage is not covered under warranty.

Repairs

Repair the Sbach 342 using foam-compatible CA

glue or clear tape. Only use foam-compatible CA

glue, as other types of glue can damage the foam.

When parts are not repairable, see the Replacement

Parts List for ordering by item number.

Note: For a listing of all replacement and optional

parts, refer to the list at the back of this manual.

If needed, keep the wheel pants from turning on the

landing gear by putting a small amount of foam-safe

CA glue on the end of the landing gear wire.
