EN SAFE® Select Technology (BNF Basic) The evolutionary SAFE® Select technology can offer an extra level of protection so you can perform the first flight with confidence. No complex transmitter programming is required. Just follow the simple bind process to make the SAFE Select system active. When activated, bank and pitch limitations keep you from over-controlling and automatic self-leveling makes recovery from risky or confusing attitudes as simple as releasing the sticks.
EN Model Assembly Landing Gear Installation 1. Install the nose gear with set screws. Use thread locking compound on the set screws. The flat spot will make the connection straight and secure. 2. Install the main gear with covers using the M2x8 flat head screws. Wing Installation 1. Slide the wing tube into the fuselage. 2. Slide the wing panels on the wing tube. Ensure the wing panels are tight against the fuselage. 3.
EN Model Assembly Continued Horizontal Stabilizer Installation 1. Apply regular, (not Foam Safe) medium CA to the base of the horizontal stabilizer where it meets the fuselage. 2. Make sure the control horn faces down toward the bottom and fit each horizontal stabilizer to the fuselage. IMPORTANT! Make sure the horizontal stabilizer is in alignment with the wing. Adjust as necessary before the CA fully cures. Center Hole Outer Hole 3.
EN Model Assembly Continued Missile Installation 1. A ttach the missiles on each side of the tanks using medium CA glue. TIP: Along the line where the Missile rack and the Fuel Tank connect, use a T-Pin or Hobby Knife to poke several small holes through the paint to help the glue adhere. 2. Attach a missile assembly onto each wing by placing them into the slot and sliding back to lock in place. Ensure the long area of the tank faces forward. No glue is required.

EN Transmitter and Receiver Binding / Enabling and Disabling SAFE Select (BNF Basic) This product requires an approved Spektrum™ DSM2®/DSMX® compatible transmitter. Visit www.bindnfly.com for a complete list of approved transmitters. The aircraft has an optional SAFE Select feature, which can be switched ON or OFF easily by binding in a specific manner as described below.
EN PNP Receiver Selection and Installation The Spektrum™ AR630 receiver is recommended for this airplane. If you choose to install another receiver, ensure that it is at least a 6-channel full range receiver. Refer to your receiver manual for correct installation and operation instructions. Installation (AR630 shown) 1. Mount the receiver using double-sided servo tape. The receiver may be mounted upright, upside down or on its side, but it should be square with the fuselage in its mounting position.
EN Battery Installation and ESC Arming Battery Selection A We recommend the Spektrum™ 2200mAh 3S 14.8V 30C LiPo battery (SPMX22003S30), for standard operation. The ESC and motor system are designed for both 3S and 4S LiPo batteries. If using a different battery, the battery should be of similar capacity, dimensions and weight of the Spektrum LiPo battery pack. Always be sure the model balances at the recommended CG with the battery chosen. 1.
EN Clevis Installation and Control Centering Clevis Adjustment • Slide the clevis retainer off of the clevis to adjust the position on the control horn. • Carefully spread the clevis, then insert the clevis pin into the desired hole in the control horn. • Slide the clevis retainer back onto the clevis to secure the clevis to the control horn. Control Surface Centering 1 4 2 5 3 6 After assembly and transmitter setup, confirm that the control surfaces are centered.
EN Control Surface Direction Ailerons Switch on the transmitter and connect the battery. Use the transmitter to operate the ailerons. View the aircraft from the rear when checking the control directions. 1. Move the right stick to the left. The left aileron will move up and the right aileron move down, causing the aircraft to bank left. 2. Move the right stick to the right. The left aileron will move down and the right aileron move up, causing the aircraft to bank right. Elevators 3.
EN In Flight Trimming (BNF Basic) During your first flight, trim the aircraft for level flight at 3/4 throttle. Make small trim adjustments with your transmitter’s trim switches to straighten the aircraft’s flight path. After adjusting the trim, do not touch the control sticks for 3 seconds. This allows the receiver to learn the correct settings to optimize AS3X performance. Three Seconds Failure to do so could affect flight performance.
EN Post Flight 1. Disconnect the flight battery from the ESC (Required for Safety and battery life). 2. Power OFF the transmitter. 3. Remove the flight battery from the aircraft. 4. Recharge the flight battery. 5. Repair or replace all damaged parts. 6. Store the flight battery apart from the aircraft and monitor the battery charge. 7. Make note of the flight conditions and flight plan results, planning for future flights.
EN Troubleshooting Guide Problem Aircraft will not respond to throttle but responds to other controls Extra noise or extra vibration during throttle operation Possible Cause Throttle not at idle and/or throttle trim too high Throttle servo travel is lower than 100% Throttle channel is reversed Motor disconnected from ESC Damaged rotor, collet or motor Rotor is out of balance Rotor nut is too loose Flight battery charge is low Reduced flight time or air- Flight battery damaged craft underpowered Flight co
