Prefl ight Checklist
Installing the Flight Battery and Arming the ESC
9
1. Charge the fl ight battery.
2. Install the fl ight battery in the
aircraft (once it has been fully
charged).
3. Bind the aircraft to the transmitter.
4. Make sure the linkages move freely.
5. Perform the Control Direction Test
with the transmitter.

6. Adjust the center of gravity.
7. Perform a radio system Range Check
8. Find a safe and open area.
9. Plan fl ight for fl ying fi eld conditions.
Arming the ESC also occurs after binding as
previously described, but subsequent connection
of a fl ight battery requires the following steps.
AS3X
The AS3X® system will not activate until the
throttle stick or trim is increased for the fi rst
time. Once active, the control surfaces may
move rapidly and noisily on the aircraft.
This is normal. AS3X technology will remain
active until the battery is disconnected.
CAUTION: Always keep hands away
from the propeller. When armed, the motor will
turn the propeller in response to any throttle
movement.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po
battery from the aircraft receiver when not
fl ying to avoid over-discharging the battery.
Batteries discharged to a voltage lower than
the lowest approved voltage may become
damaged, resulting in loss of performance and
potential fi re when batteries are charged.
