Charging Warnings
The Duet transmitter has been designed to safely
charge the included Li-Po battery.
• Always transport or temporarily store the battery
in a temperature range of 40–120° F. Do not store
the battery or model in a car or direct sunlight. If
stored in a hot car, the battery can be damaged or
even catch fire.
CAUTION: All instructions and warnings must
be followed exactly. Mishandling of Li-Po batteries
can result in a fire, personal injury and/or property
damage.
• Always inspect the battery before charging. Never
charge damaged batteries.
• ONLY USE A CHARGER SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED
TO CHARGE LI-PO BATTERIES. Failure to charge
the battery with a compatible charger may cause
a fire resulting in personal injury and/or property
damage.
• Never discharge Li-Po cells to below 3V under
load.
• Never cover warning labels with hook and loop
strips.
• Never leave charging batteries unattended.
• By handling, charging or using the included Li-Po
battery, you assume all risks associated with
lithium batteries.
• If at any time the battery begins to balloon or
swell, discontinue use immediately. If charging
or discharging, discontinue and disconnect.
Continuing to use, charge or discharge a battery
that is ballooning or swelling can result in fire.
• Always store the battery at room temperature in a
dry area for best results.
Charging the Flight Battery
Always charge the aircraft battery before flying.
CAUTION: Do not store the Li-Po battery in
the charger. Doing so could over-discharge the
Li-Po battery.
If the flight battery charging takes longer than
45 minutes AND the charge LED remains solid,
replace the transmitter batteries.

Installing the Flight Battery
Keep the aircraft and transmitter away from large metal objects, wireless
sources or other transmitters while installing the battery.
1.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po flight battery from the
aircraft receiver when not flying 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
fire when batteries are charged.
2.
CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propellers.
Virtual Instructor™ stabilization will turn propellers in response to any
aircraft movement.
3.
Sec.
For best flight
performance,
install the battery
as shown.
Keep immobile and
out of the wind for
5 seconds.
4.
Control Direction Test
1. Face the aircraft away from you.
2. Restrain the aircraft so it does not escape your control while you are testing your transmitter controls.
3. Move the sticks on the transmitter to ensure the aircraft responds as shown.
Refer to the Binding instructions and Troubleshooting Guide in this manual for more information.
If you need more assistance, contact the appropriate Horizon Hobby Product Support department.

Flying
• Set a flight timer for 5 minutes
• Always make deliberate and steady control
stick movements for smooth control of your
aircraft.
™
If you feel you are losing control,
release the right (steering) stick to
allow the aircraft to slowly return to
level flight.
Throttle stick
• When you notice that the aircraft no longer
climbs while under full power or the motors
begin to pulse, immediately land the aircraft
and recharge the battery.
Adjusting Trim in Flight
Direction of Drift
Familiarize yourself with your transmitter’s
controls and the aircraft’s response before
flying by performing the recommended Control
Direction Test. Press the trim buttons on your
transmitter to adjust how the aircraft flies.
If the aircraft’s nose drifts while the steering
stick is at neutral (centered) and the throttle is at
50%, press the trim buttons:
•
•
•
•
Upper button to stop up drift
Lower button to stop down drift
Left button to stop right drift
Right button to stop left drift
If you press a trim button until no beep sounds
and the aircraft does not fly straight and level,
land and manually adjust the trim as described
below.
Manually Adjusting Trim
Press the trim buttons to return to center (3
beeps will sound), then use a pair of pliers to
carefully bend the metal connector (A):
• Narrow if the aircraft’s nose drifts up.
• Widen if the aircraft’s nose drifts down.
Short test flights and small bends may be
needed.

Landing
Fly to your runway, keeping the aircraft pointed
into the wind and the wings level. Bring the
aircraft down by lowering the throttle to 25%.
Near the ground, fully lower the throttle and pull
back on the steering stick.
CAUTION: Never catch a flying aircraft in
your hands. Doing so could cause personal
injury and damage to the aircraft.
After Flying
1.
1. Lower the throttle stick completely and do
not move the steering stick. Wait at least 5
seconds.
2. Disconnect and remove the battery from
the aircraft. Keep hands away from the
propellers.
3. Power off the transmitter.
4. Fully charge the aircraft battery.
5. Remove the battery after charging is
complete.

3.
NOTICE: When you are finished flying, never
leave the aircraft in direct sunlight or in a hot,
enclosed area such as a car. Doing so can
damage the foam.
NOTICE: Always disconnect the battery from the
aircraft before powering off the transmitter or
injury and damage may result.
