Hangar 9 Ultra Stick PNP Model Presets Notes and Instructions
Preflight Check List
• Set Sub-Trim for your model – even though this is a PNP model, your sub-trim values will likely be slightly off from what is set in the model presets, this
is due to variations in control rod lengths and servo arm placement on the servo output spline.
• Test controls for correct movement with corresponding stick inputs – If you are using an out of the box PNP model with no change in hardware, the
presets will function properly, but it is always a good idea to confirm these movements before every flight. IF they are incorrect, please refer to the
wiring diagram above and ensure your servos are plugged in as designated.
• Check Servos for binding – Move your controls to their max throws in each flight mode/mix and observe the servo arms and linkages for binding. If
binding occurs; make sure servo arms and linkages are installed properly and per the model’s instruction manual, use additional tuning of the Absolute
Travel Menu to restrict movement of controls if being pushed beyond their end points to the point of binding. (This has been performed on our Model
Presets BUT it can occur from variations to your servo arm positions, control travels and sub trim settings)
• Take your time to understand what each switch position does – One great tool to help prevent confusion in flight is the Audio Events menu. Use this
menu in your Spektrum Transmitter to have your transmitter call out which mode and switch position you are in with a recognizable call out or sound.
(Audio Event menu not available on DX6e or DX8e)
• IF using Smart SAFE/AS3X Receiver Model Presets, Access Forward Programming menu and perform the following…
▪ Select “Relearn Servo Settings” to ensure the receiver records your transmitters servo settings
▪ Adjust Receiver Orientation setting to match the position of your receiver via the “Orientation” Menu
▪ Test SAFE/AS3X modes for proper control corrections – If these are incorrect, repeat receiver orientation setup and relearn servo
settings function.
• IF you have setup Thrust Reversing via the Avian Prog menu or with the Spektrum ESC Programmer…
▪ Ensure that the Channel and Switch you have selected is NOT occupied by another function
▪ Check motor for correct rotation in correspondence to your assigned switch – If this is incorrect or not to your preference, simply
reverse the channel in the Servo Setup menu
