Flight Control Direction Test
This test ensures that the fl ight control system is functioning properly.
Assemble the aircraft, bind your transmitter to the receiver, and ensure the
aircraft is in Airplane Flight Mode/ Stability Mode before performing this test.
The control surfaces will not respond in Multirotor Flight Mode.
Move the entire aircraft as shown in the table and ensure the control surfaces
respond in the direction as shown. If the control surfaces do not respond as
shown, do not fl y the aircraft. Contact Horizon Product Support.
Once the fl ight control system is active, control surfaces may move rapidly. This
is normal.
CAUTION: Keep all body parts, hair and loose clothing away from a
moving propeller, as these items could become entangled.
Aircraft Movement Elevon Reaction
Stability and Acro Flight Modes are available in both Airplane Flight Mode and
Multirotor Flight Mode. The basic function of each mode is the same regardless
of what realm of fl ight is active.
Stability Mode
Stability Mode limits the bank and pitch angle of the aircraft. The aircraft will
self-level if you release the transmitter sticks.
Acro Mode
Acro Mode removes the bank angle limits and will not self-level the aircraft
if you release the transmitter sticks. Acro Mode is intended for experienced
pilots who are comfortable fl ying the aircraft in any orientation.
The following table gives the switch positions and a brief description of the
possible fl ight conditions available.
Flight Conditions
Multirotor Flight Mode
(Switch H, Position 1)
Airplane Flight Mode
(Switch H, Position 0)
Stability Mode
(Switch A, Position 0)
• Limited bank angle
• Very little pitch change
• Forward and backward
fl ight is achieved
through angling of the
main motor nacelles

• Tail motor runs
• Use this condition for all
takeoffs and landings
• Limited bank angle
• Self-levelling
• Elevons active

• Do not attempt to
land or takeoff in this
condition
Acro Mode
(Switch A, Position 1)
• Unlimited bank and
pitch angles
• Does not self- level
• Elevons inactive
• Tail motor runs
• Do not attempt to
land or takeoff in this
condition if you are an
inexperienced pilot
• Unlimited bank and
pitch angles
• Does not self-level

• Tail motor does not run
• Do not attempt to
land or takeoff in this
condition
