Thrust represents the intial velocity of the throw and can vary between 0 and 100 miles per hour. Elevator represents the amount that the wings are bent and varies between -35 and 35 degrees.

2. When you're satisfied with your settings press the LAUNCH button. After the throw, press the RESET button and adjust the settings again for another throw.
