3. Plug the motor into the speed control. Use hook and
loop tape to secure the speed control inside the fuselage
out of the way of the battery.
Note
: When using our recommended E-flite 60A Pro
Brushless ESC with switching BEC you do not need a
separate receiver pack as long as you are using our
recommended servos.
If your ESC is not capable of supporting the current draw
of four mini-size servos the speed control may shut down
due to high heat.
In order to provide the most reliable product, E-flite
recommends the use of a separate BEC (like the Ultimate
BEC), or receiver pack and switch to ensure trouble-free
operation as follows:
Use the battery and switch harness to power the receiver
and servos after disabling the BEC on the ESC (by
following the instructions included with the ESC).
4. Use the two hook and loop straps included with your
plane to secure the battery inside the fuselage.
Note
: If the battery slides forward or backward, use hook
and loop tape on the battery and inside the fuselage to
prevent the battery from moving.
5. Now is a good time to test the operation of the
motor. Use your radio system and plug the speed
control into the receiver. With the battery plugged
in, use the throttle stick to operate the motor. Check
that the motor operates properly, and that it rotates
counterclockwise when viewed from the front of the
plane. Follow the instructions provided with the speed
control to correct for operational problems.
