Setup for the HobbyZone 450mm P-51D Mustang RTF Micro Trainer

Do this before you fly! Setup includes assembly, control surface check, control surface alignment, powering up procedure, weather, and flying area.
Introduction
Now it's easier than ever to learn to fly RC (Radio Controlled) airplanes in more places and smaller spaces with the HobbyZone® P-51D Mustang 450mm! Its ultra-micro size makes it perfect for flying in large yards, parks, soccer fields, and other suitable spaces where larger “trainer” models can’t typically be flown successfully by first-time pilots. Plus, it features a “pop off” prop saver design and incredibly tough EPP construction that makes it one of the most durable trainer airplanes yet! Best of all it also features SAFE® (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology that helps prevent overcontrol, loss of orientation, and crashes so nearly everyone can learn to fly successfully. The 100% factory-assembled airframe is equipped with a reliable electric power system, receiver, and servos. It’s also RTF (Ready-To-Fly) right out of the box including two rechargeable batteries, a charger, and a controller/transmitter so there’s nothing else you need to buy or provide to fly!
LEARN TO FLY SUCCESSFULLY
Welcome to the exciting world of RC (Radio Controlled) flight! If you’ve ever dreamed of taking to the skies, Horizon Hobby has you covered. We are committed to engineering aircraft that you can learn to fly with successfully even if you’ve never flown RC before. Every HobbyZone® aircraft we offer features industry-leading design and technology developed by experts to keep you in control and learning at your own pace so you can turn your dreams of flight into a reality!
The P-51D Mustang is one of the most popular and iconic fighter aircraft of all time! Its unique design resulted in it delivering some of the best performance among all fighter aircraft flown in WWII. The HobbyZone P-51D Mustang 450mm is a scale replica of the legendary U.S. Army Air Corps fighter that makes learning to fly radio controlled (RC) airplanes in more places and smaller spaces easy and fun! Its ultra-micro size makes it an ideal choice for a smaller trainer model that can be flown in large yards, parks, soccer fields, and other suitable spaces where larger models can’t typically be flown successfully by first-time pilots. Best of all, it’s equipped with Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope (SAFE) technology that helps to prevent overcontrol, loss of orientation, and crashes so nearly everyone can learn to fly successfully! Beginner, Intermediate, and Experienced flight modes allow you to choose the level of stability and control you need, or are ready to try, at the flip of a switch.
And the fun doesn't stop while or after you learn how to fly! The lightweight yet extremely durable EPP airframe is equipped with a powerful electric motor that delivers long flight times and provides plenty of speed and power to perform aerobatic maneuvers including loops, rolls, and even inverted (upside down) flight in the Experienced mode. Or, if you’re not ready to perform aerobatics on your own, the P-51 can automatically perform single or even multiple loops or rolls in the Beginner or Intermediate flight modes with just a quick press of the “Aerobatics” button and by moving the control stick in the desired direction!
This Ready-To-Fly (RTF) model includes everything needed to fly in one box and is a perfect choice if you're a new RC pilot. From the 5-channel 2.4GHz controller/transmitter and the AA batteries for it, to the two 1S 400mAh rechargeable Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries and a convenient charger that can be used with a variety of USB power sources, there's nothing extra you need to buy or provide! There’s even a spare propeller featuring the unique "pop off" prop saver design included in the rare chance you might need it.

Just got one. Thanks for this video!

[@BRGT350]

Awesome! I was out flying the Mustang last night. I really like it. Just make sure the prop is pushed on tight. I found out the hard way that mine wasn't pushed on all the way after showing somebody how the prop saver worked. Thankfully there is a spare in the box! Also, if the elevator is pointing downwards out of the box, leave it that way. I adjusted mine and then after trimming the plane in flight, the elevator was back to the position it was when I did the video, so leave it in that spot.

Great work! 👊🏻💥👊🏻

Thanks! Now just need the weather to settle down so I can go fly it.

[@chuckac1]

Do you know how to fix the aileron

[@BRGT350]

what is wrong with them?

[@ninjahunter6372]

Just got one throttle is not responding any solutions?

[@BRGT350]

with the transmitter on and battery installed, move the throttle stick all the way up until it beeps and then all the way down until it beeps. Once that is done, the ESC is initialized and the throttle will respond.

@@BRGT350 tried that did not work

[@nickk4257]

@@ninjahunter6372I have the same issue with mine not having throttle or elevator control the rest of the controls work

[@BRGT350]

Do the rest of the controls work? One option is to lower the throttle trim as far as it will go, then go full up on the throttle until it beeps, full down until it beeps, and then recenter the throttle trim. If that doesn't work, try rebinding the plane to the transmitter. If no luck there, contact customer service.
