5. Turn on the transmitter. Be certain the light on the front
is glowing green indicating that the batteries have adequate
power. If the light is yellow this indicates that the batteries may
be old or used and do not have enough power. If necessary,
replace the batteries in the transmitter with new ones.
IMPORTANT: For the following procedure the propeller
must not be mounted to the motor. If you have skipped
ahead and already mounted the propeller, remove
the propeller before proceeding. Otherwise, you may
inadvertently start the motor and the spinning propeller
could cause damage or injury.

6. With the transmitter on, connect the included battery
pack to the battery wire coming from the fuselage. When the
connection is made you will hear two beeps coming from
the ESC. IMPORTANT: The beeping sound alerts you that
the system has power and the motor is “armed.” This means
whenever the throttle control stick is advanced the propeller will
turn. So later, when the propeller is mounted and you are ready
to fl y, keep clear of the propeller while handling the model
and do not inadvertently advance the throttle stick. If you do, the
propeller will turn and damage or injury could be caused.

7. Add a drop of threadlocker to one of the included 3mm
set screws. Install the screw into the pushrod connector on
the elevator servo, but do not tighten it yet.
❏
8. With the radio system operating and the trims centered,
center the elevator and tighten the screw in the connector to
lock the pushrod down.
Refer to the following illustration while setting up
the controls.

9. Move the elevator stick on the transmitter up and

way, switch the elevator servo reversing switch in the front
of the transmitter.
