EN Model Assembly Continued Wing Installation 1. Remove the canopy hatch (A) from the fuselage. 2. Slide the wing tube (B) into the fuselage. 3. Install the left and right wing (C and D) over the wing tube and into the wing slot of the fuselage while inserting the aileron servo connectors through the provided holes. A C CAUTION: DO NOT crush or otherwise damage the wiring when attaching the wing to the fuselage. 4. Secure the left and right wings to the fuselage using the included 4 screws (E).

EN PNP Receiver Selection and Installation The Spektrum AR636 receiver is recommended for ths airplane. If you choose to install another receiver, ensure that it is at least a 4-channel full range (sport) receiver. Refer to your receiver manual for correct installation and operation instructions. Installation (AR636 shown) 1. Remove the canopy from the fuselage. 2. Mount the receiver parallel to the length of the fuselage as shown. Use double-sided servo tape.
EN Battery Installation and ESC Arming Battery Selection A We recommend the E-flite® 3300mAh 14.8V 4S 50C Li-Po battery (EFLB33004S50). 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 E-flite Li-Po battery packs to fit in the fuselage. Be sure the model balances at the recommended CG. 1. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest settings.
EN Center of Gravity (CG) The CG location is measured from the leading edge of the wing at the root. This CG location has been determined with the recommended Li-Po battery installed all the way forward in the battery compartment. 89mm back from leading edge at the root. AS3X Control Direction Test 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. 2.
EN Flying Tips and Repairs Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a flying location. Landing Range Check your Radio System For your first flights with the recommended battery pack (EFLB33004S50), set your transmitter timer or a stopwatch to 3 minutes. After three minutes, land the aircraft. Adjust your timer for longer or shorter flights once you have flown the model. If at any time the motor pulses, land the aircraft immediately to recharge the flight battery.
EN Post Flight 1 Disconnect the flight battery from the ESC (Required for Safety and battery life). 5 Repair or replace all damaged parts. 2 Power OFF the transmitter. 6 Store the flight battery apart from the aircraft and monitor the battery charge. 3 Remove the flight battery from the aircraft. 7 4 Recharge the flight battery. Make note of the flight conditions and flight plan results, planning for future flights.
