Important ESC and model information
1.
The ESC included with the model has a safe start. If the motor battery is connected to the ESC and the throttle stick is not in
the low throttle or off position, the motor will not start until the throttle stick is moved to the low throttle or off position. Once the
throttle stick is moved to the low throttle or off position, the motor will emit a series of beeps. Several beeps with the same tune
means the ESC has detected the cells of the battery. The count of the beeps equals the cells of the battery. The motor is now
armed and will start when the throttle is moved.
2.
The motor and ESC come pre-connected and the motor rotation should be correct. If for any reason the motor is rotating in the
wrong direction, simply reverse two of the three motor wires to change the direction of rotation.
3.
The motor has an optional brake setting. The ESC comes with brake switched off and we recommend that the model be flown
with the brake off. However, the brake could be accidentally switched on if the motor battery is connected to the ESC while the
throttle stick is set at full throttle. To switch the brake off, move the throttle stick to full throttle and plug in the motor battery. The
motor will beep one time. Move the throttle stick to low throttle or the off position. The motor is ready to run and the brake will
be switched off.
4.
Battery election and Installation. We recommend the 6S 3300mAh-4000mAh Li-Po 35C battery. If using another battery, the
battery must be at least a 6S 3300mAh-4000mAh Li-Po 35C battery. Your battery should be approximately the same capacity,
dimension and weight as the 6S 3300mAh-4000mAh Li-Po 35C Li-Po battery to fit the fuselage without changing the center of
gravity significantly.
Transmitter and model setup
Before getting started, bind your receiver with your transmitter.
Please refer to your Transmitter Manual for proper operation.
CAUTION: To prevent personal injury, DO NOT arm the ESC
and do not turn on the transmitter until the Transmitter Manual
instructs you to do so.
Tips: Make sure all control sticks on your radio are in the
neutral position (rudder, elevator, ailerons) and the throttle is
in the OFF position. Make sure both ailerons move up and
down (travel) the same amount. This model tracks well when
the left and right ailerons travel the same amount in response
to the control stick.
Move the controls on the transmitter to make sure the
aircraft control surface moves correctly. See diagrams right.
