Dual Rates and Control Throws
Program your transmitter to set the rates and control throws to the values given.
These values have been tested and are a good starting point to achieve successful
flight.
After flying, you may choose to adjust the values for the desired control response.
Battery Installation and ESC Arming
The Spektrum
™
Smart 600mAh 3S 50C Li-Po battery (SPMX6003S50) is
recommended for best performance.
Refer to the Optional Parts List for other recommended batteries. If using a
battery other than those listed, the battery should be within the range of capacity,
dimensions and weight of the Spektrum Li-Po battery pack to fit in the fuselage.
Verify the model balances at the recommended CG before flying.
WARNING:
Always keep hands away from the propeller. When armed, the
motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle movement. If your
transmitter supports it, always engage throttle cut before approaching the
aircraft any time a battery is connected.
1. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest settings. Power on the
transmitter, then wait 5 seconds.
2. Install the fully charged battery in the middle of the battery area, as shown.
Secure using the included hook and loop straps.
3. Connect the battery to the ESC.
4. Keep the aircraft immobile and away from wind or the system will not initialize.
• The ESC will sound a series of tones.
• An LED will light on the receiver.
5. The ESC is now armed.
NOTICE:
If the ESC sounds a continuous double beep after the flight battery is
connected, recharge or replace the battery.
WARNING:
We do not recommend using the Avian ESC reversing feature
with this model.
Receiver Selection and Installation
PNP
The recommended receiver for this aircraft is the
Spektrum AR630. If you choose to install a different
receiver, ensure that it is at least a 6-channel full
range receiver. Refer to the manual of your chosen
receiver for correct installation and operation
instructions.
AR630 Installation
1. Connect the servos to the their respective ports in the receiver using the table
at the right.
2. Using high quality-double-sided servo tape (not included), mount the receiver
on the left side of the fuselage, under the leading edge of the wing. Mount the
receiver in the orientation shown, parallel to the length of the fuselage, with
the label facing out and the servo ports toward the front of the aircraft. The
orientation of the receiver is critical for all AS3X and SAFE technology setups.
CAUTION:
Incorrect installation of the receiver could cause a crash.
