SAFE Technology Flight Modes

This aircraft has 3 selectable ﬂ ight modes and a Panic Recovery feature. It

is extremely important to follow the Transmitter Setup section of this manual

before binding your transmitter to this aircraft .

3D Mode (High Gain):

This mode uses high rates and high gains to deliver extreme maneuverability

with maximum stability at low airspeeds. Use this mode for slow ﬂ ying and 3D

maneuvers such as Hovers and Harriers. Flying at high speed in this mode

could cause oscillation.

3D Mode (Low Gain):

This mode uses high rates and lower gains to deliver extreme maneuverability

with gains set low enough to ﬂ y at full power without oscillaton.

Precision Mode (Low Rate/Low Gain):

This mode uses low rates and low gains to deliver precise response at high

airspeeds. Use this mode to trim the aircraft and ﬂ y fast precision maneuvers.

Adjusting the Programming of the AR636

The included AR636 receiver has been programmed for operation speciﬁ cally

for this aircraft. However, you can adjust the programming at anytime by down-

loading the Spektrum AS3X App, then purchase the Spektrum

™

Audio-interface

AS3X

receiver programming cable (SPMA3081) or with the Spektrum

™

AS3X

Programming cable USB interface (SPMA3065).

Panic Recovery Mode

If you feel you have lost control of the aircraft (in any mode), hold the Panic

Recovery button/switch. The SAFE

technology will return the aircraft to

upright ﬂ ight.

Always ﬂ y at a safe altitude, as Panic Recovery may cause the aircraft to lose

altitude while returning to upright ﬂ ight. Release the Panic Recovery button/

switch to turn off Panic mode and return to the current SAFE ﬂ ight mode with

full stick control again.

IMPORTANT: If the aircraft is upside down when the Panic Recovery button/

switch is pressed, sufﬁ cient altitude may be required for the aircraft to return

to upright ﬂ ight.
