Transmitter and Receiver Binding

CAUTION: Connecting the battery to the ESC with reversed polarity will cause damage to the ESC, the battery or both. Damage caused by incorrectly connecting the battery is not covered under warranty.
An extension is installed in the receiver bind port so binding may be done through the battery hatch at the front of the aircraft without having to remove the wing assembly. Simply insert the bind plug in the open end of the extension to enter bind mode. The transmitter included with the RTF model is bound to the aircraft at the factory. If you need to re-bind for any reason, follow the binding procedure as shown. The BNF version of this aircraft requires a SpektrumTM DSM2®/DSMX® technology equipped aircraft transmitter for proper operation. Refer to your transmitter instructions for binding to a receiver. If you encounter problems after following the binding instructions, contact the appropriate Horizon Product Support office.

Binding Procedure
1. Make sure the transmitter is powered off.
2. Make sure the transmitter controls are neutral, the throttle is at the lowest position*, the throttle trim is centered and the aircraft is immobile.
3. Install a bind plug in the receiver bind port extension.
4. Connect the flight battery to the ESC. The ESC will produce three ascending tones and the receiver LED will begin to flash rapidly.
5. Refer to your transmitter manual for specific instructions to place the transmitter in bind mode.
6. When the receiver binds to the transmitter, the receiver LED will glow solid and the aircraft will begin the initialization process, indicated by the control surfaces cycling.
7. Remove the bind plug from the bind port extension and store in a safe place. The receiver should retain the binding instructions received from the transmitter until another binding is done.
*The throttle will not arm if the transmitter's throttle stick is not set to the lowest position.

Install the Flight Battery
1. Power on the transmitter. 2. Turn on the THROTTLE CUT switch (motor power inactive). 3. Lift at the rear of the battery hatch to remove it from the fuselage. 4. Attach a piece of adhesive-back loop material to the bottom of the battery. 5. Place the battery, loop material down, on the battery tray. The placement of
the battery can be adjusted forward or backward to help balance the aircraft. 6. When the battery is properly placed, secure it with the hook and loop. 7. Connect the IC3 battery connector to the ESC, noting proper polarity.
CAUTION: Connecting the battery to the ESC with reversed polarity will cause damage to the ESC, the battery or both. Damage caused by incorrectly connecting the battery is not covered under warranty. CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller. When armed, the motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle movement. 8. Place the aircraft on a flat, level surface. The control surfaces will cycle as the SAFE system initializes. Initialization is complete when the surfaces stop moving. 9. Replace the battery hatch on the fuselage by first inserting the front tab then lowering the back until the magnet catches. 10. Turn off the Throttle Cut switch to power the motor. CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po flight battery from the aircraft 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.

Center of Gravity (CG)
An aircraft with the correct CG is balanced for safe, stable flight.The aircraft CG and weight are based on having the recommended battery installed. The CG location is 67-70mm back from the leading edge of the wing at the root and is marked on the bottom of the wing with a raised "CG". Balance the aircraft on your fingertips at the raised marks. Adjust the battery position as needed get the aircraft to balance correctly. · If the nose goes down, move the flight battery back until the aircraft balances. · If the nose goes up, move the flight battery forward until the aircraft balances. When in intermediate and experienced modes, if the aircraft CG is too far forward (nose heavy), up elevator is required to fly level at 50%-60% power. If the aircraft CG is too far aft (tail heavy), down elevator is required to fly level. In Beginner mode the aircraft is not affected. The SAFE system controls the aircraft attitude.

cover ground quickly. Plan on flying in an area that gives you more space than you think you need, especially with first flights.

· Be clear of people and pets. · Be free of trees, buildings, cars, power lines or anything that could entangle

your aircraft or interfere with your line of sight.

Range Test

WARNING: Do not perform this or any other equipment test with the propeller installed on the aircraft. Serious injury or property damage could result from the motor starting inadvertently.
WARNING: While holding the aircraft during the range test, always keep body parts and loose items away from the motor. Failure to do so could cause personal injury.

HOLD

Before each flying session, and especially with a new model, you should perform a range check. If you have the BNF aircraft, refer to your transmitter manual to perform a range check of your system.
The included transmitter incorporates a range check mode to reduce the output power of the transmitter. Follow the directions below to enter range check mode for the transmitter:
1. Power on the transmitter for 5 seconds or more with the throttle stick low and throttle trim centered.
2. Power on the aircraft, keeping it immobile for 5 seconds.
3. Face the model with the transmitter in your normal flying position.
4. Press and hold switch A (Bind button) and toggle switch F four times within 10 seconds. The transmitter LEDs will flash orange and the alarm will sound. The system is in range check mode. Do not let go of the bind button until you are finished with the range check.

IMPORTANT: You must hold the bind button during the entire range check process. Releasing the button will immediately exit the range check mode and you will need to start again.

5. With the radio system powered on and the model safely restrained on the ground, stand 28 meters (90 feet) away from the model.

4X

TIP: In some aircraft, when the model is placed on the ground, the antenna(s) can be within inches of the ground. Close proximity of the antenna(s) to the ground can reduce the effectiveness of the range check. If you experience issues during the range check, restrain the model on a non-conductive stand or table up to 2ft (60cm) above the ground, then range check the system again.

6. Move the transmitter rudder, elevator, aileron and throttle controls to ensure they operate smoothly.
7. If control issues exist, do not attempt to fly. Refer to the contact table at the end of the this manual to contact Horizon Hobby product support. Also, see the Spektrum website for more information.
8. When the range check is successfully completed, release the bind button to exit range check mode.

CAUTION: Never attempt to fly while the transmitter is in range check mode due to reduced output power of the transmitter. Loss of control will occur.

Follow the instructions below to install the propeller and spinner: 1. Place the prop washer on the motor shaft. 2. Insert the prop nut in the propeller. The raised letters on the propeller should
face away from the rounded head of the prop nut. When the propeller is installed, the raised letters should face toward the front of the aircraft. 3. Grip the motor can firmly to keep it from rotating. 4. Thread the propeller and prop nut onto the motor shaft. IMPORTANT: The motor shaft and prop nut are reverse-threaded. Turn the prop nut counter-clockwise to tighten it to the motor shaft. 5. Tighten propeller and prop nut to the motor shaft by hand.

Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope (SAFE) Technology Flight Modes

At any time during a flight you can switch between the 3 flight modes or use Panic recovery to get your aircraft to a safe flying attitude. Change between flight modes by changing the flight mode switch position.
Beginner Mode (position 0)
· Envelope limit: Pitch (nose up and down) and Roll (wing tips up and down) angles are limited to help you keep the aircraft airborne.
· Self-leveling: when the pitch and roll controls are returned to neutral, the aircraft returns to level flight.
· Stability assisted takeoff and landing. · Throttle based climb and descent.
Intermediate Mode (position 1)
· Natural Flight Experience: In normal training flight conditions, the pilot experiences natural AS3X® flight for smooth handling and outstanding precision with limited bank angles and no self-leveling when releasing the control sticks of transmitter.
· Large Flight Envelope: The pilot is only prevented from entering extreme flight conditions outside the training flight envelope.
Experienced Mode (position 2)
· Natural Flight Experience: The pilot experiences natural AS3X flight for smooth handling and outstanding precision.
· Unlimited Flight Envelope: No limit on Pitch and Roll angles (airframe limited).
Panic Recovery
This function is intended to provide you with the confidence to continue to improve your flight skills. If you become disoriented or the aircraft is in an unknown or uncomfortable attitude:
1. Press and hold the Bind/PANIC button on the transmitter and release the control sticks. The aircraft will immediately pull out of a dive and roll wings upright and level.
IMPORTANT: The aircraft will recover to a safer attitude even if sticks are held while holding the PANIC button. However, release the control sticks for the quickest recovery.
2. Release the PANIC button and continue a gentle climb to a safe altitude.
CAUTION: The Panic Recovery function will not avoid obstacles in the aircraft flight path. Sufficient altitude is required for the aircraft to return to straight and level flight if the aircraft is upside down when the panic function is applied.

Flight Control
IMPORTANT: Even though SAFE technology is a very helpful tool, the aircraft still needs to be flown manually. If incorrect input is given at lower altitudes or at slower speeds, the aircraft can crash. Study these control inputs and the aircraft response to each carefully before attempting your first flight. For first flights, set the SAFE® flight mode switch to Beginner Mode (position 0). For smooth control of your aircraft, always make small corrections. All directions are described as if you were sitting in the aircraft.
Flying faster or slower: When your aircraft is stable in the air, push the throttle stick up to make the aircraft go faster. Pull the throttle stick back to slow down. The aircraft will climb when the throttle is increased.
Elevator up and down: Push the elevator stick forward to make the aircraft go down. Pull the elevator stick back to go up.
Aileron right and left: Move the aileron stick right to make the aircraft roll or "bank" right. Move the aileron stick left to bank left.
TIP: Always picture yourself in the aircraft when determining which way to bank the aircraft wings. When the aircraft is flying away from you, banking the aircraft right or left appears normal. When flying toward you, the aircraft will appear to bank the opposite direction to the control input given. This will become more instinctual with experience.
Rudder left and right: Push the rudder stick left or right to yaw or point the nose of the aircraft left or right. The rudder stick is also used to steer the aircraft left and right while taxiing on the ground.
TIP: Similar to aileron control, picture yourself in the aircraft to determine which direction to point the nose whether you are flying away from yourself or toward yourself.

Preflight Checklist

1. Find a safe and open flying area. 2. Charge flight battery. 3. Install fully charged flight battery in aircraft. 4. Make sure linkages move freely. 5. Perform control direction test.
Flying

6. Perform a range check. 7. Plan flight for flying field conditions. 8. Set a flight timer for 5­6 min. 9. Install the propeller. 10. Have fun!

Takeoff

Set the flight mode switch to Beginner Mode (position 0) for your first flights. Set a flight timer for 5-6 minutes.
Ground Launch Once the aircraft is ready for flight, slowly advance the throttle to start the takeoff roll into the wind. Small rudder inputs may be required for heading correction as the aircraft will begin a slow climb out as the throttle is advanced.

Wind
Slowly advance the throttle stick.

Hand Launch Once the aircraft is ready for flight, use the following steps.
1. Grip the aircraft under the fuselage, behind the main gear.
2. Slowly advance the throttle to 100%.
3. Throw the aircraft slightly nose up and directly into the wind. Small rudder inputs may be required for heading correction as the aircraft will begin a slow climb out as the throttle is advanced.

Slowly advance

the throttle stick.

Wind

In Flight
Let the aircraft climb at full throttle, into the wind, until the aircraft gets about 300 feet (91m) above the ground, then decrease the throttle to half (50%). Make small and gentle stick movements to see how the aircraft responds. Flying with the nose pointed toward you is one of the hardest things to do when learning to fly. Practice flying in large circles high off the ground. If you lose orientation of the aircraft, press and hold the PANIC button and the aircraft will return to level flight.
NOTICE: If a crash is imminent, activate throttle hold or quickly lower the throttle and throttle trim. Failure to do so could result in extra damage to the airframe, as well as damage to the ESC and motor.

When properly trimmed, the aircraft's wing design causes a climb at full throttle without the use of elevator.

Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)
LVC is a function built into your ESC to protect the battery from over-discharge. When the battery charge is low, LVC limits power supplied to the motor. The aircraft will begin to slow and you will hear the motor pulse. When the motor power decreases, land the aircraft immediately and recharge the flight battery.
NOTICE: Repeated flying to LVC will damage the battery.
Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the aircraft after use to prevent trickle discharge. Charge your Li-Po battery to about half capacity before storage. During storage, make sure the battery charge does not fall below 3V per cell.

Landing
1. Reduce the throttle to around 50% to slow the airspeed. 2. Fly the aircraft downwind past the end of the runway. 3. Turn the aircraft into the wind and line the aircraft up with the runway
center line. 4. Decrease the throttle further and begin descending towards the runway,
keeping the wings level during approach. Try to have the aircraft at approximately 10ft (3m) altitude as it passes over the threshold of the runway. 5. As the aircraft passes over the threshold of the runway decrease the throttle fully. 6. Just as the aircraft is about to touch down, gently pull back on the elevator to raise the nose and flair for a gentle landing.
NOTICE: If a crash is imminent, activate throttle hold or quickly lower the throttle and throttle trim. Failure to do so could result in extra damage to the airframe, as well as damage to the ESC and motor.
IMPORTANT: When finished flying, never keep the aircraft in the sun. Do not store the aircraft in a hot, enclosed area such as a car. Doing so can damage the foam.
Trimming the Aircraft
Adjusting Trim in Flight
If your aircraft does not fly straight and level at half throttle with the sticks at neutral, fly into the wind and adjust the trim sliders as indicated in the table until the aircraft maintains a reasonably straight and level flight path. · Trimming is best done in calm wind conditions. · The SAFE flight mode switch should be set to Experienced mode (position 2)
before adjusting the trims. After the aircraft is trimmed in flight, land the aircraft and proceed to the Manually Adjusting Trim section to set the trim mechanically. The included RTF DXS transmitter features electronic trim buttons. The transmitter emits a faint beep with each click of the trim buttons in either direction. Holding the button in either direction quickly adjusts the trim several steps until the button is released or until the trim reaches the end of its travel. If the trim button does not beep when clicked, the trim is at the far end of its travel. Center trim is indicated by a slightly louder beep.

Manually Adjusting Trim
WARNING: Do not perform any maintenance with the propeller installed on the aircraft. Serious injury or property damage could result from the motor starting inadvertently.
The SAFE flight mode switch should be set to Experienced mode (position 2) before manually adjusting the trim settings. The aircraft should be kept still while perfoming manual adjustment of trim. With the trim settings from the trim flight still set in the transmitter, take note of the positions of each of the control surfaces, one at a time. Adjust the clevis on each control surface to position the surface the same as it was with the trim offset. 1. Remove the clevis from the control horn. 2. Turn the clevis (as shown) to lengthen or shorten the pushrod. 3. Close the clevis onto the control horn and slide the tube towards the horn to
secure the clevis. 4. Move to the next control surface. When you have all of the surface trims centered, return the trim settings on the transmitter to neutral by pushing the trim buttons for each surface until the transmitter emits a loud beep indicating center trim.

Service and Repairs
WARNING: Do not perform this or any other equipment maintenance with the propeller installed on the aircraft. Serious injury or property damage could result from the motor starting inadvertently.
NOTICE: Crash damage is not covered under warranty.
NOTICE: After any impact or replacement always ensure the receiver is secure in the fuselage. If you replace the receiver, install the new receiver in the same location and orientation as the original or damage may result.
Repairs to the foam can be made using virtually any adhesive (hot glue, regular CA [cyanoacrylate adhesive], epoxy, etc). Use of CA accelerator on the aircraft can damage paint. DO NOT handle the aircraft until accelerator fully dries. When damaged parts are not repairable, see the Replacement Parts list for ordering by item number.

Service of Power Components
WARNING: Always disconnect the flight battery from the model before removing the propeller.
Disassembly
1. Remove the wing from the aircraft. 2. Use a long 2.5mm hex driver inside the motor pod to remove the four
screws (A) from the motor mount. 3. Disconnect the 3 motor wires from the ESC, and pull the motor (B) from the
mount. Assemble in reverse order. If, after assembly, the motor spins in the wrong direction, switch the connections of any two of the 3 motor wires.
Assembly Tips · If, after assembly, the motor spins in the wrong direction, switch the con-
nections of any two of the ESC/motor wires. · The raised lettering on the propeller must face forward toward the motor
for correct propeller operation.
