Check the Radio System
CAUTION: Do not install the propeller on the plane until
instructed to do so.

1. If using the Tactic TTX600 radio system read the Radio
System Instructions section on page 14 in this manual. Then,
install four AA alkaline batteries in the transmitter with the
correct polarity.

2. Check that the servo reversing switches are confi gured
as shown.

3. Position the throttle stick (left stick) to idle (all the way
down) and switch on the transmitter. The power indicator light
should be glowing a steady red. A fl ashing red light and an
audible tone indicates low voltage. If this happens, replace
the batteries before connecting the fl ight battery.
❏
4. Center the aileron, elevator, throttle and rudder trims on
the transmitter by listening to the beeps. You will hear a low,
short beep each time you bump the trim. When you hear one
high, short beep the trim is centered. Experiment running the
trim to the limits a few times to familiarize yourself with the
trims. When fi nished, return all the trims to center.
Before connecting the battery to the plane, be aware that
depending on the position of your landing gear switch
on the transmitter the gear in the wing may come down.
Place the wing upside down on your work surface or leave
the gear servo lead disconnected from the receiver until
you are prepared to test it.
❏
5. With the transmitter still switched on, connect the LiPo
motor battery to the electronic speed control. The motor will
produce a low tone. Moving the right stick on the transmitter
up and down will move the elevator on the plane up and down.
If the motor does not beep and the elevator does not move,
the receiver will need to be bound to the transmitter.
❏
6. The receiver does not need to be removed from the
fuselage to bind it to the transmitter. Make sure the throttle
stick is down in the idle or off position and the transmitter is
switched on. Insert a small screwdriver or paperclip through
the hole marked “Bind” and press the pushbutton until the
LED on the receiver glows red and then turns off after about
one second. Then, release the bind button. If the binding is
successful, the LED on the receiver will fl ash once and then
remain ON.
❏
7. Make sure the motor brake function in the ESC is
deactivated. When you advance the throttle stick, the motor
should turn. When you bring the throttle stick all the way back
down, the motor should come to a coasting stop. If the motor
stops quickly, the brake is on. To deactivate the brake, follow
the instructions on page 12.
CAUTION: Perform the following steps without the propeller
mounted to the motor. Do not install the propeller until
instructed to do so.
