Select Technology (BNF Basic)
The BNF Basic version of this airplane includes SAFE Select technology which can
offer an extra level of protection in ight. Use the following instructions to make the
SAFE Select system active and assign it to a switch. When enabled, SAFE Select
prevents the airplane from banking or pitching past predetermined limits, and
automatic self-leveling keeps the airplane ying in a straight and level attitude when
the aileron, elevator and rudder sticks are at neutral.
SAFE Select is enabled or disabled during the bind process. When the airplane is
bound with SAFE Select enabled, a switch can be assigned to toggle between SAFE
Select mode and AS3X mode. AS3X
®
technology remains active with no banking
limits or self leveling any time SAFE Select is disabled or OFF.
