Hobbico Nexstar select, Instruction Manual

The NexSTAR Select comes with a receiver battery in the
airplane and a transmitter battery. Both of them can be
charged at the same time or independently with the Futaba

®

charger included.

❏

1. For safety reasons, the model is shipped with the

battery pack in the model (the receiver battery)
disconnected. In the fuselage, connect the plug from the
battery pack, labeled “Battery 1”, to the plug from the on/off
switch, labeled “Battery 2.”

❏

2. When shipped, the batteries are not fully charged.

They must be fully charged before use. If you plan to
assemble the plane now, the batteries may be charged
later. If you plan to assemble the plane later, charge the
batteries following the instructions in the instruction manual
supplied for the radio control system.

Note: When charging the receiver battery, connect the
charger to the plug labeled “Charge” inside the fuselage.

Note: Charging time of fully depleted receiver and
transmitter batteries is about 15 hours. Both batteries
should be charged overnight before every flying day. A fully
charged set of batteries should allow you to make three full
flights before needing to recharge the batteries again. In any
case, you should always check battery voltage before flying
and never fly with a receiver voltage less that 5 V.
