* Failsafe (RED LED FAST FLASHING)
If the receiver loses transmitter communication, the failsafe will activate. When activated, failsafe moves the throttle channel to its preset failsafe position (low throttle)
that was set during binding. All other channels move for the aircraft to slowly circle and descend until radio link is re-established.
Flight Training
Instruction
To the new pilot:
This aircraft is easy to fl y and helps you apply beginner skills to fl ying; however,
we recommend you get help from a qualifi ed fl ight instructor for your fi rst radio
controlled fl ights. Some model fl ying clubs provide fl ight training at their fl ying
fi elds. Find a nearby fl ying club through your local hobby shop. In the U.S., visit the
Academy of Model Aeronautics at www.modelaircraft.org. for more information on
clubs and fl ight instruction.
To the fl ight instructor:
Feel free to experiment with the SAFE technology before instructing your student on
this aircraft. The progressive switch positions in the SAFE technology are intended
for a new pilot to learn with minimal instructor assistance. We recommend using
Channel 5 Switch Position 1 to instruct a new pilot. Switch positions 0 and 2 may
stabilize the aircraft more or less than you desire for instruction purposes.
DXe Trainer Feature
Your DXe transmitter may be connected to another transmitter through the trainer
ports using a trainer cord (SPM6805, sold separately).
The DXe transmitter is ideal* as the master as it is compatible with all Spektrum
transmitters when using this feature. Servo reversing and trims must be the same
on both transmitters.
This “buddy box” approach has helped many new pilots get the feel for aircraft
control with the close assistance of a fl ight instructor. Connecting two transmitters
enables your fl ight instructor to hold the master transmitter while you hold the
slave transmitter. While you learn to fl y, the instructor holds the trainer switch to
give you control of the aircraft. If you need help, the fl ight instructor can release the
switch to take control.
IMPORTANT: If a transmitter other than the included DXe is used for master or
slave, refer to Optional Transmitter Setup in this manual.
