with the RTF version, is an 11.1V, 2200mAh 3S 30C Smart Technology
LiPo battery with an IC3
™
connector (SPMX22003S30). If using a different
battery, the battery should be of similar capacity, dimensions and weight
to t in the fuselage. The aircraft electronic speed control is equipped with
an IC3 device connector. Ensure the battery chosen is compatible. Always
ensure the model balances at the recommended center of gravity (CG)
with the chosen battery. Follow your chosen battery and battery charger

Specications and Operation
The Spektrum S120 SMART Technology battery charger included with the
RTF version of the aircraft is compatible only with Spektrum SMART 2-3
cell LiPo batteries or 6-7 cell NiMH batteries. It is not compaptible with any
other battery chemistries or non-SMART batteries.
A USB power supply is required for use. A USB-C QC type power supply is
recommended for the fastest charge times.
To charge the included ight battery:
1. Using the supplied Type-C USB cable, connect the S120 charger to a USB
power supply (not included ).
2. Insert the Spektrum
SMART Battery IC3
connector (A) into
the charger IC3 port,
and insert the battery
balance lead (B) into
the charger balance
port. Both the IC3 and
balance connectors
must be connected for
the charging process to begin. The battery may be disconnected from the
charger at any time to stop the charging process.
IMPORTANT: SMART NiMH batteries do not have a balance connector.
3. Disconnect the IC3 and balance connectors when the charge and balance
cycles are complete, as indicated by the LED.
4. The LED indicator will glow solid red to indicate a charging error. Follow
the operation steps to ensure proper connection is used to charge the
battery.
Refer to the LED indicator table for charger status.
