Control Surface Centering
AS3X Control Direction Test
IMPORTANT: Perform the Control Direction Test before performing control
surface centering.
Control Surface Centering and Adjusting a Linkage
While AS3X is inactive (before advancing the throttle), mechanically center the
control surfaces.
IMPORTANT: Correct operation of the AS3X system requires sub-trim and
trim at 0.
After binding a transmitter to the airplanes receiver, set the trims and sub-trims
to 0, ensure the servo arms are in the correct positions, then adjust the link-
ages to center the control surfaces.
Tip: Use needle-nose pliers or ball link pliers (RV01005) to remove or
install a link on a control horn.
• Turn the linkage clock-
wise or counterclockwise
until the control surface is
centered.
• Attach the linkage to the
servo arm or control horn
after adjustment.
Assemble the aircraft and bind your transmitter to the receiver before perform-
ing this Test.
Activate the AS3X system by advancing the throttle to 25%, then fully lowering
the throttle.
Move the aircraft as shown to ensure the AS3X system moves the control sur-
faces in their proper direction. If the control surfaces do not respond as shown,
do not fl y the aircraft. Refer to the receiver manual for more information.
Once the AS3X system is active, the control surfaces may move rapidly on the
aircraft. This is normal. AS3X will remain active until the battery is discon-
nected.
