Flying wings are controlled by elevons (moveable surfaces on the wing).
Elevons take the aileron control (move opposite directions), and elevator
control (move up/down same direction) and mixes them together electronically
through the transmitter.

Make sure both elevons move up and down (travel) the same amount. This
model tracks well when the left and right ailerons travel the same amount in
response to the control stick.

• For the Spektrum DX4e and DX5e transmitter: Set trim to neutral, and make

sure servo arm is fully vertical. If not, adjust servo arm. Then adjust linkage
length so both ailerons travel the same amount.

• For computerized transmitters (such as the Spektrum DX6i, DX7 and DX8):

Set trim and sub-trim to 0. Make sure each servo arm is fully vertical.
Adjust each servo/channel sub-trim as needed to make each servo arm fully
vertical. Then adjust servo travel so both control surfaces travel the
same amount.

• This model does not require use of aileron differential programming in the

transmitter.

Installing Nose

1. Align magnets and install nose (A) on fuselage (B).

Note: Always repair or replace the nose when it is damaged to keep the
model fl ying correctly.

Transmitter Set up

Model Set up

We recommend this setup for servo channel reversing for DX4e, DX5e,
DX7 and DX8 transmitters ( Same for JR9303/9503, 11X and 12X ):

Throttle: Normal

Aileron: Reverse

Elevator: Reverse

Rudder: Normal

For the DX6i we recommend this setup for servo channel reversing:

Throttle: Normal

Aileron: Reverse

Elevator: Normal

Rudder: Normal

Note: When setting up model for control using a spectrum DX6i trans-
mitter, swap servo connections between aileron and elevator ports on
receiver (from factory settings). Do a control test to make sure model
operates correctly.

Recommended Computerized Transmitter
Dual Rates and Expo

**Note: Higher values (listed above) require moving a clevis one hole
closer to the base of the control horn or moving a linkage one hole closer
to the base of a servo arm.

• At fi rst fl ight, fl y the model in low rate. The fi rst time you use high rate, fl y at

low to medium speed.
Note: High rate, as listed, is only for EXTREME maneuvering.

• Use a ruler and measure the surface’s travel at the root of each

control surface.

NOTICE: When using a DSMX non-computer transmitter (DX4e/DX5e) with
multiple aircraft, always re-bind and set a model’s failsafe before each fl ight.
Please refer to your transmitter’s manual for failsafe instructions.
