EN Battery Installation and ESC Arming Battery Selection We recommend the 5000mAh 22.2V 6S 30C Li-Po battery (SPMX50006S30). 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 Smart Li-Po battery packs to fit in the fuselage. Be sure the model balances at the recommended CG. A 1. Lower the throttle to the lowest settings.
EN Control Surface Centering and Adjusting a Ball Link IMPORTANT: Perform the Control Direction Test before performing control surface centering. While SAFE is inactive, mechanically center the control surfaces. IMPORTANT: Correct operation of the SAFE system requires sub-trim and trim at 0. After binding a transmitter to the airplanes receiver, set the trims and subtrims to 0, ensure the servo arms are in the correct positions, then adjust the linkages to center the control surfaces.
EN Binding General Binding Tips • The included receiver has been specifically programmed for operation of this aircraft. Refer to the receiver manual for correct setup if the receiver is replaced. • Keep away from large metal objects while binding. • Do not point the transmitter’s antenna directly at the receiver while binding. • The orange LED on the receiver will flash rapidly when the receiver enters bind mode.
EN SAFE® Select Switch Designation Once SAFE Select is enabled, you can choose to fly in SAFE mode full-time, or assign a switch. Any switch on any channel between 5 and 9 can be used on your transmitter. Assigning a Switch TIP: If model has a reversing ESC feature, Aux2 is not available for safe select. 2. Power on the aircraft. If the aircraft is bound with SAFE Select disabled, the aircraft will be in AS3X mode exclusively.
EN Control Direction Test Switch on the transmitter and connect the battery. Use the transmitter to operate the aileron, elevator and rudder controls. View the aircraft from the rear when checking the control directions. Transmitter command Control Surface Response Elevator 2. Push the elevator stick forward. The elevators should move down, which will cause the aircraft to pitch down. Ailerons Elevator 1. Pull the elevator stick back.
EN AS3X Control Direction Test Aircraft movement This test ensures that the AS3X® control system is functioning properly. Assemble the aircraft and bind your transmitter to the receiver before performing this test. AS3X Reaction CAUTION: Keep all body parts, hair and loose clothing away from a moving propeller, as these items could become entangled. 2. Move the entire aircraft as shown and ensure the control surfaces move in the direction indicated in the graphic.
EN Flying Tips and Repairs Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a flying location. Range Check your Radio System Before you fly, range check the radio system. Refer to your specific transmitter instruction manual for range test information. Oscillation Once the AS3X system is active (after advancing the throttle for the first time), you will normally see the control surfaces react to aircraft movement.
EN Post Flight 1 Disconnect the flight battery from the ESC (Required for Safety and battery life). 2 Power OFF the transmitter. 3 Remove the flight battery from the aircraft. 4 Recharge the flight battery. 5 Repair or replace all damaged parts. 6 Store the flight battery apart from the aircraft and monitor the battery charge. 7 Make note of the flight conditions and flight plan results, planning for future flights.
EN Troubleshooting Guide Problem Possible Cause Throttle not at idle and/or throttle trim too high Aircraft will not Throttle servo travel is lower than 100% respond to throttle but responds to Throttle channel is reversed other controls Motor disconnected from ESC Damaged propeller and spinner, collet or motor Extra propeller noise Propeller is out of balance or extra vibration Prop nut is too loose Flight battery charge is low Propeller installed backwards Reduced flight time or aircraft Flight battery
