Required Parts
Speed control Assembled airframe
Receiver Hook and loop tape
Note: Due to the current draw of the system
and the location of the electronics, we
recommend that throttle management is used
during each flight. Using full power throughout
the duration of the flight will result in shorter
flight times and could result in a shorter life
span for the electronics and batteries.
 1. Plug the wires from the speed control and motor
together. The wires from the motor will be just long
enough that they can be accessed from the cockpit
area of your model.
 2. Apply a small piece of hook and loop tape to
the bottom of the speed control.
Note: Work through Step 3 before removing
the backing from the hook and loop tape.
Installation of the speed control can be tricky,
and the stickiness of the hook and loop tape
will make the installation even trickier. Keeping
the backing on until ready will allow you to
practice the installation of the speed control
before your final performance.
 3. Install the speed control back in the fuselage as
indicated on the photos. You will need to guide the
motor wires into the fuselage while installing the
speed control.
ESC Location
Note: Before plugging in the servos, it
is suggested to read through the Radio
Programming section of this manual
beginning on Page 27. This section will guide
you through setting up the necessary mixing
required to operate the servos installed in
your F-16. This mixing reduces the amount
of complexity and extensions required,
keeping the weight at its lowest for the best
performance from your model.
Be sure to refer to your motor and ESC manuals
as to the correct setup of the power system. You
may need to change the PWM switching frequency
and or the timing according to your setup.
