EN Transmitter and Receiver Binding For a list of compatible DSM2/DSMX transmitters, please visit www.bindnfly.com Binding Procedure CAUTION: When using a Futaba transmitter with a Spektrum DSM® module, you must reverse the throttle channel and rebind. Refer to your Spektrum module manual for binding and failsafe instructions. Refer to your Futaba transmitter manual for instructions on reversing the throttle channel. 1.
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.
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 Landing Gear Removal 1. Carefully remove the lower strut brace (A) by unsnapping each side from the struts and then pulling the bracket away from the fuselage. 2. Carefully pull the back side of the upper strut brace (B) out of the fuselage and then unsnap it from the strut. Remove the left and right side. 3. Carefully squeeze the landing gear strut assembly (C) together and pull it out of the retaining slot. A When needed, disassemble in reverse order. B C Retracted Landing Gear Installation 1.
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.
EN Power Components Service Disassembly CAUTION: DO NOT handle the propeller while the flight battery is connected to the ESC. Personal injury could result. Propeller 1. Remove the spinner (A) from the propeller. A Since the propeller and spinner are glued together, glue residue will need to be cleaned from the spinner or propeller when these parts are used again. 2. Carefully remove the screw (B) and propeller (C) from the motor shaft. C Motor 1.
EN Troubleshooting Guide AS3X Problem Possible Cause Solution Control surfaces not at neutral position when transmitter controls are at neutral Control surfaces may not have been mechanically centered from factory Center control surfaces mechanically by adjusting the U-bends on control linkages Aircraft was not kept immobile for 5 seconds after battery was plugged in Keep the aircraft immobile for 5 seconds after plugging in the battery Model flies inconsistently from flight to flight Aircraft was
EN Troubleshooting Guide (Continued) Problem LED on receiver flashes rapidly and aircraft will not respond to transmitter (after binding) Control surface does not move Possible Cause Solution Less than a 5-second wait between first powering on transmitter and connecting flight battery to aircraft Leaving transmitter on, disconnect and reconnect flight battery to aircraft Aircraft bound to different model memory (ModelMatch™ radios only) Select correct model memory on transmitter and disconnect and r
