ESC/Receiver Arming, Battery Installation and Center of Gravity
28mm
AS3X
The AS3X
®
system will not activate until the throttle stick
or trim is increased past 25% for the first time. Once
active, the control surfaces may move rapidly and noisily
on the aircraft. This is normal. AS3X technology will
remain active until the battery is disconnected.
1. Remove the battery hatch from the fuselage.
2. Install the flight battery in the center of the battery
tray. Ensure the battery is secured by the hook and
loop strip.
Center of Gravity (CG)
Measure back 28mm from the leading edge of
the wing, where the wing meets the fuselage and
place a mark. Balance the airplane on this CG
mark. Balance the aircraft upright.
3. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest
settings on your transmitter. Power on your
transmitter, then wait 5 seconds.
4. Connect the battery to the ESC, noting proper polarity.
Keep the aircraft upright (on its gear)and immobile
and away from wind for 5 seconds to allow the AS3X
system to initialize. A series of tones and a continuous
LED indicates a successful connection.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery
from the ESC when not flying to eliminate power
supplied to the motor. The ESC does not have an arming
switch and will respond to any transmitter input when a
signal is present.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery
from the ESC when not flying to avoid over-
discharging the battery. Batteries discharged to a voltage
lower than the lowest approved voltage may become
damaged, resulting in loss of performance and potential
fire when batteries are charged.
CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the
propeller. When armed, the motor will turn the
propeller in response to any throttle movement.
Arming the ESC/receiver also occurs after binding as
previously described, but subsequent connection of a
flight battery requires the following steps.
