Observe the following procedures to safely power up your model
after it has been bound. Ensure propeller is removed unless
sequence is followed to power up befo
Lower the throttle stick and trim to their lowest setting and turn
on the transmitter. Wait for your transmitter to indicate the radio
signal is being broadcast before proceeding.
Ensure the aileron, elevator and rudder gimbals are centered.
With the airplane on a solid surface, connect the battery to the
ESC and wait. The ESC will make the motor emit a series of
audible tones during its intialization process.
The ESC will make the motor em uence
idicating that the ESC is now armed, and that the motor will spin
in response to throttle stick movement.
If a battery is connected to the ESC with the throttle fully
open on the active transmitter, the ESC will enter
programming mode. If this occurs, simply disconnect the
battery, lower the throttle, and reconnect the battery.
WARNING
When making adjustments to linkages,
system, remove the propeller to guard against
accidental spool up.
Hold the aircraft securely when connecting the
is clear of any and all objects as they may
become entangled.
WARNING
Always connect the battery when the throttle stick
CAUTION
CONNECTING A BATTERY TO THE LED CONTROLLER (NIGHT VERSION ONLY)
The LEDs on your aircraft are switchable via the transmitter, and are designed to be powered by 12 volts (3S Li-Po) through the 6S JST-XH
balance tab on the LED controller. By default, the LED controller is left unplugged from the receiver or Aura.
If the servo lead of the LED controller is not plugged into the Aura or a receiver, the LEDs will default in the ON position, allowing
the Night Version to be
wn at night with a basic 6-channel transmitter or receiver.
The LEDs should be powered from a separate 3 cell Li-Po battery per the diagram below.
LED
CONTROLLER
3-6 cell Li-Po
WARNING
The LEDs draw approximately 2.5A from ONLY 3 cells of the battery powering it. If using a higher cell count battery for
power, 3 of the cells will have a lower voltage than ght. Leave excess voltage in the battery
event the over-discharging of the cells that power the LEDs. You MUST balance charge your
batteries after D controller is powered by anything other than a 3 cell battery.
WARNING
Do not leave the battery plugged into the LED controller for extended periods of time. Doing so can
damage the battery.
Note: Black wire is Negative, other wires are positive
