EN Charging Warnings • Always inspect the battery before charging and never charge dead or damaged batteries. • Always disconnect the battery after charging, and let the charger cool between charges. • Always constantly monitor the temperature of the battery pack while charging. • ONLY USE A CHARGER SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO CHARGE LI-PO BATTERIES. Failure to charge the battery with a compatible charger may cause fire resulting in personal injury and/or property damage.
EN WARNING: Before proceeding further, remove the propeller and spinner from the motor shaft. Never attempt to program the radio components, assemble the aircraft or perform maintenance of any kind without removing the propeller. Serious injury could result if the motor starts inadvertently with the propeller still attached. 1. Ensure the flight battery is NOT connected to the aircraft. 2. Hold the motor can firmly to keep it from rotating. 3.
EN Included DXe Transmitter (RTF Version) Installing the Transmitter Batteries Remove the battery cover, install the four included batteries (noting proper polarity) and reinstall the battery cover. Low Battery Alarm The LED indicator flashes and the transmitter beeps progressively faster as the battery voltage drops. Replace the transmitter batteries when the transmitter begins to beep. CAUTION: If using rechargeable batteries, charge only rechargeable batteries.
EN Assemble the Aircraft Install the landing gear 1. Slide the main gear into the slots in the fuselage until they lock into place. 2. Insert the nose gear into the wheel collar as shown and tighten the setscrew against the flat in the gear wire using a phillips screwdriver. Install the horizontal tail 1. Slide the longer of the two included square carbon fiber tubes fully into the hole of either of the horizontal stabilizers. The tube is a compression fit and does not require any adhesive. 2.
EN Assemble and install the wing 1. Slide the carbon fiber wing spar fully into a wing panel as shown. Ensure the aileron servo lead exits through the slot in the bottom of the wing. 2. Slide the opposite wing panel over the wing spar until the root of the wing panels are tight and the rear mounting hole is correctly aligned. Ensure both aileron servo leads exit through the bottom of the wing and are not pinched between the wing panels. 3.
EN Transmitter and Receiver Binding Binding Procedure 1. Make sure the transmitter is powered off. 2. Make sure the transmitter controls are neutral, the throttle is at the lowest position*, the throttle trim is centered and the aircraft is immobile. 3. Install a bind plug in the receiver bind port extension. 4. Connect the flight battery to the ESC. The ESC will produce three ascending tones and the receiver LED will begin to flash rapidly. 5.
EN Center of Gravity (CG) An aircraft with the correct CG has its weight balanced on the center of the aircraft for safe, stable flight.The aircraft CG and weight are based on having the recommended battery installed. The CG location is 67-70mm back from the leading edge of the wing at the root and is marked on the bottom of the wing with a raised “CG”. Balance the aircraft on your fingertips at the raised marks. Adjust the battery position as needed get the aircraft to balance correctly.
EN Choose a Flying Field Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft. In order to have the most success and to protect your property and aircraft, it is The flying site should: very important to select a place to fly that is very open. • Have a minimum of approximately 1300 feet (400m) of clear space in all directions. Remember, your aircraft can reach significant speeds when flying and can cover ground quickly.
EN Install the Propeller WARNING: Do not install the propeller until the aircraft has been completely assembled, all systems have been checked thoroughly and you are located at a suitable flying site. Follow the instructions below to install the propeller and spinner: 1. Place the prop washer on the motor shaft. 2. Insert the prop nut in the propeller. The raised letters on the propeller should face away from the rounded head of the prop nut.
EN Flight Control IMPORTANT: Even though SAFE technology is a very helpful tool, the aircraft still needs to be flown manually. If incorrect input is given at lower altitudes or at slower speeds, the aircraft can crash. Study these control inputs and the aircraft response to each carefully before attempting your first flight. For first flights, set the SAFE® flight mode switch to Beginner Mode (position 0). For smooth control of your aircraft, always make small corrections.
EN Preflight Checklist 1. Find a safe and open flying area 2. Charge flight battery 3. Install fully charged flight battery in aircraft 4. Make sure linkages move freely 5. Perform control direction test 6. Perform a range check 7. Plan flight for flying field conditions 8. Set a flight timer for 5-6 min. 9. Install the propeller 10. Have fun! Flying Takeoff Set the flight mode switch to Beginner Mode (position 0) for your first flights. Set a flight timer for 5-6 minutes. Wind Slowly advance the throttle stick.
EN Landing 1. Reduce the throttle to around 50% to slow the airspeed. 2. Fly the aircraft downwind past the end of the runway. 3. Turn the aircraft into the wind and line the aircraft up with the runway center line. 4. Decrease the throttle further and begin descending towards the runway, keeping the wings level during approach. Try to have the aircraft at approximately 10ft (3m) altitude as it passes over the threshold of the runway. 5.
EN Post Flight Checklist 1. Activate Throttle Cut. 2. While avoiding the area of the propeller and prop arc, disconnect and remove the flight battery from the aircraft 3. Power off the transmitter 4. Recharge the flight battery 5. Inspect the airframe for loose or damaged parts 6. Repair or replace all damaged parts 7. Store flight battery apart from the aircraft and monitor the battery charge 8.
