F9F - 8 Cougar OPERATIONAL MANUAL Please read before operating this system! W e would like thank you for purchasing our new product—F9F-8 COUGAR, designed for the hobby enthusiast. Base on its full - scale counterpart, this USA Jet can finish loops, inverted flight and rolls and other aerobatics easily. Even the beginner can easily setup the model and fly it stably. It is also made as a highly maneuverable model for the intermediate to expert pilot. With the F9F-8 COUGAR model which includes EDF set*, speed controller, electric servo and retract landing gear with front steering (Gear doors system is an optional requirement) you will have joyful time in model flying. Remarks:* We have two types EDF set (4S & 6S version) for your selection. 1) EDF68-1A is a higher grade EDF set which is an aluminum alloy material EDF more powerful output, efficient and durability. 2) Please be noticed that all servos have been pre-set the center point before out of factory. It maybe appeared some difference due to difference brand name radio control. Kindly make sure to do the adjustment (special to pre-set the travel of gear servo up to 130 %. If you select gear doors system with special modified travel throw servos. You are needed to pre-set the travel of gear servo up to 110-120%) with your own radio equipment before installation this jet model. 3) Centre of Gravity for this model is measured 80mm from main wing leading edge. 4) Please make sure to use a little piece of attached velco to secure your LiPo battery before flying. -2- Specifications: Wing Span : 880mm Length: 1000mm Height: 300mm Flying weight: 1350g up Servo: 9g× 9 pcs Power system: Brushless electrical ducted fan EDF68-1A Thrust: Up to 1.45kg with 4s Up to 1.65kg with 6s Function: Retract landing gear system, flaperon function and Gear doors system (optional item).

Also you can install the provided drop tanks, missiles and both size wing-knifes if you want. - 11 - Flight attention Do not fly at any place where another same-frequency model is being operated. Taking off: Always take off toward the wind. When launch F9F-8 COUGAR by hands, maximize the power (include the micro-adjuster) and run several meters, then throw the F9F-8 COUGAR horizontally. When launch F9F-8 COUGAR on the ground, maximize the power and let F9F-8 COUGAR accelerate in direction of the wind and keep it running straightly, after it run more than 60 feet, then pull the elevator joy stick, and it will take off. Flight: To keep F9F-8 COUGAR flying only need 50% of the maximum power, it is a good idea to fly with power for a while and glide for a while. In this way you can prolong the maximum flight time and familiarize yourself with landing approaches. Landing: Before landing, switch off the power, fly along with the wind, and when F9F-8 COUGAR flies near to the ground, then pull the elevator joystick and F9F-8 COUGAR will landing gently. With more practice, then you could control the model easily.
