EN Transmitter and Receiver Binding Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. You need to ‘bind’ your chosen Spektrum™ DSM2/DSMX technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation. Any full range Spektrum DSM2/DSMX transmitter can bind to the DSM2/DSMX receiver.
EN Transmitter Setup To obtain the best flight performance, we recommend using a DSM2®/DSMX® transmitter capable of Dual Rates. Before binding, ensure that you are starting with a blank acro model in your transmitter. IMPORTANT: After you set up your model, always rebind the transmitter and receiver to set the desired failsafe positions. Program Your Transmitter 1. Start with a new ACRO Model. 2. Set Aircraft Type: Wing >1Ail 1Flap : Tail > Normal 3. Leave all settings at their default values.
EN ESC/Receiver Arming, Battery Installation and Center of Gravity CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller. When armed, the motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle movement. 1 Arming the ESC/receiver also occurs after binding as previously described, but subsequent connection of a flight battery requires the following steps. AS3X The AS3X® system will not activate until the throttle stick or trim is increased for the first time.
EN Control Direction Tests Traditional Control Direction Test You should bind your aircraft and transmitter before doing these tests. Move the controls on the transmitter to make sure the aircraft control surfaces move correctly and in the proper direction. Make sure the tail linkages move freely and that paint or decals are not adhered to them. AS3X® Control Direction Test This test ensures that the AS3X® control system is functioning properly. Aileron Rudder 1.
EN Control Centering Before your first flight, make sure the aircraft’s control surfaces are centered. 1. Power on the transmitter and then the aircraft. 2. Set all transmitter trims and sub-trims to zero. 3. Check the control surfaces to make sure they are centered. 4. If centering is required, use a pair of pliers to carefully bend the metal linkage (see illustration). Make the U-shape narrower to make the connector shorter. Make the U-shape wider to make the linkage longer.
EN Flying Tips and Repairs We recommend flying your aircraft outside in calm conditions. Always avoid flying near houses, trees, wires and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid flying in areas where there are many people, such as busy parks, schoolyards or soccer fields. Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft. During flare, keep the wings level and the airplane pointed into the wind.
EN Power Components Service Disassembly CAUTION: DO NOT handle the propeller while the flight battery is connected to the ESC. Personal injury could result. B Propeller 1. Carefully remove the screw (A) and propeller (B) from the motor shaft. A Motor 1. Remove the battery hatch by gripping the front of the hatch, then pulling it up and away from the fuselage. 2. Disconnect the motor wire connector from the ESC/receiver connector. 3. Remove the screw (C) and motor (D) from the motor mount. 4.
EN Slat Installation (Optional) Required Adhesives Foam Safe CA 1. Apply a small drop of foam safe CA to each mount. 2. Carefully mount the slat onto the wing with the rounded edge facing forward. Float installation (Optional) Landing Gear Removal 1. Carefully place the aircraft on its back. 2. Remove the 4 screws and 2 plates securing the landing gear. 3. Remove the other 4 screws and 2 plates for the rear float mount. Save all screws and plates for the float installlation. 4. Remove the landing gear.
