Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)
When a Li-Po battery is discharged below 3V per
cell, it will not hold a charge. The Hyper Taxi ESC
protects the fl ight battery from over-discharge using
Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). Before the battery charge
decreases too much, LVC removes power supplied
to the motor. Power to the motor quickly decreases
and increases, showing that some battery power is
reserved for fl ight control and safe landing.
When the motor power pulses, land the aircraft
immediately and recharge the fl ight battery.
Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the
aircraft after use to prevent trickle discharge. Before
storage, charge the Li-Po battery to full capacity.
During storage, make sure the battery charge does
not fall below 3V per cell.
Tip: Due to the quiet nature of the aircraft, you may
not hear the pulsing of the motor.
For your fi rst fl ights, set your transmitter timer or a
stopwatch to 5 minutes. Adjust your timer for longer
or shorter fl ights once you have fl own the model.
NOTICE: Repeated fl ying to LVC will damage
the battery.
AS3X Stabilization
DELIVERS BREAKTHROUGH PERFORMANCE
The AS3X System for airplanes is an electronic
enhancement system that makes it possible
for you to experience super-smooth fl ight
performance, yet still have full control authority
for sport, scale or 3D fl ight.
Turbulence, torque and tip stalls are just some of
the many complications to assess when trying to
achieve smooth fl ight. The Horizon Hobby world-
class team of RC pilots developed the AS3X System
for airplanes based on the successful use of AS3X
with ultra micro fl ybarless helicopters. Specially
tuned for airplanes, the AS3X System invisibly
helps with complicated corrections, allowing you
to experience ultra-smooth fl ight performance that
feels so natural that you’ll quickly build confi dence
in the capability of the airplane.
AS3X System setup is simple. Just bind your
DSM2
™ /DSMX ® transmitter to the model using a
basic airplane program and AS3X will assure that
the locked-in feel and control authority you want is
instantly at your command to help show off your RC
pilot skills.
AS3X will innovate the way you’ll want to fl y now
and in the future. To see what we mean, go to

Prefl ight Checklist

1. Charge fl ight battery.
2. Install fl ight battery in aircraft
(once it has been fully charged).
3. Bind aircraft to transmitter.
4. Make sure linkages move freely.
5. Perform Control Direction Test with
transmitter.

6. Set dual rates and exponential.
7. Adjust center of gravity
8. Perform a radio system Range Check.
9. Find a safe and open area.
10. Plan fl ight for fl ying fi eld conditions.
