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.

(BNF only)

4. Make sure the linkages move freely.

9

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 appropriate for fl ying

location.

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.

It is normal for linear servos to make noise. Noise
is not an indication of a faulty servo.

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.
