Installing the Flight Battery
1. Remove the battery hatch from the nose of
the aircraft.
2. Apply the included strip of hook and loop
tape to the bottom of your battery near the
battery leads. This position allows easier
battery installation and removal.
3. For the recommended CG, install the battery
fully forward in the compartment (against the
firewall), then press the battery onto the hook
and loop strip (
A
). See the Adjusting the Center
of Gravity instructions for more information.
4. Connect a fully charged flight battery to the
ESC. See the Arming the ESC instructions for
correct connection of the battery to the ESC.
5. Reinstall the battery hatch.
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the Li-Po
battery from the ESC when not fl ying to eliminate
power supplied to the motor. The ESC does not have
an arming switch and will respond to any
transmitter input when a signal is present.
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the Li-Po
battery from the ESC when not fl ying to avoid
over-discharging the battery. Batteries discharged
to a voltage lower than the lowest approved voltage
may become damaged, resulting in loss of
performance and potential fi re when batteries
are charged.
