Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)

When a Li-Po battery is discharged below 3V per cell, it will not hold a charge. The aircraft's ESC protects the flight battery from over-discharge using Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). Once the battery discharges to 3V per cell, the LVC will reduce the power to the motor in order to leave adequate power to the receiver and servos to land the airplane.

When the motor power decreases, land the aircraft immediately and replace or recharge the flight battery.

Always disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the aircraft after each flight. Charge your Li-Po battery to about half capacity before storage. Make sure the battery charge does not fall below 3V per cell. Failure to unplug a connected battery will result in trickle discharge.

For your first flights, set your transmitter timer or a stopwatch to 5 minutes. Adjust your timer for longer or shorter flights once you have fl own the model. Flights of 7 minutes are achievable if using proper throttle management.

NOTICE: Repeated fl ying to LVC will damage the battery.

Transmitter and Receiver Binding

Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifi er) code of a single specifi c transmitter. You need to 'bind' your chosen Spektrum™ DSM2/DSMX technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation.

Any full range Spektrum DSM2/DSMX transmitter can bind to the DSM2/DSMX receiver. Please visit www.bindnfl y.com for a complete list of compatible transmitters.

CAUTION: When using a Futaba transmitter with a Spektrum DSM® module, you must reverse the throttle channel and rebind. Refer to your Spektrum module manual for binding and failsafe instructions. Refer to your Futaba transmitter manual for instructions on reversing the throttle channel.

Binding Procedure

1. Refer to your transmitter's unique instructions for binding to a receiver (location of transmitter's Bind control).

2. Make sure the fl ight battery is disconnected from the aircraft.

3. Power off the transmitter.

4. Bind the AR6310 receiver to a DSM2/DSMX transmitter by shorting the bind pins (A) with tweezers, a hemostat or small needle-nose pliers. Metal to metal contact is needed to complete the circuit. Do not bend the bind pins.

5. Connect the fl ight battery to the aircraft. Short the pins until the receiver LED begins to fl ash rapidly (typically after 5 seconds).

6. Ensure that control surface trims are centered and the throttle and throttle trims are in the low position to correctly set the failsafe.

7. Put your transmitter into bind mode. Refer to your transmitter's manual for binding button or switch instructions.

8. After 5 to 10 seconds, the receiver status LED will become solid, indicating that the receiver is bound to the transmitter. If the LED does not turn solid, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide at the back of the manual.

For subsequent fl ights, power on the transmitter before connecting the fl ight battery.

Battery Installation

1. Remove the canopy.
2. Install the battery (A) in the battery cavity towards the front of the fuselage. Refer to the Center of Gravity instructions for the battery's position.
3. Connect the fully charged flight battery to the ESC. Refer to the ESC Arming instructions for correct connection of the battery to the ESC.
4. Replace the canopy on the fuselage.

CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the ESC when not flying to eliminate power supplied to the motor. The ESC does not have an arming switch and will respond to any transmitter input when a signal is present.

CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the ESC when not fl ying 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 fi re when batteries are charged.

ESC Arming

Arming the ESC also occurs after binding as previously described, but subsequent connection of a flight battery requires the steps to the right.

Tip: If the ESC sounds a continuous double beep after the flight battery is connected, recharge or replace the battery.

If you accidentally connect the battery while the throttle is opened, a musical tone will sound after 5 seconds and the ESC will not arm until the throttle is returned to the off position.

CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller. When armed, the motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle movement.

Control Direction Test

Bind your aircraft and transmitter before doing these tests. Move the controls on the transmitter to make sure the aircraft control surfaces move correctly and in the proper direction.

Always keep throttle at the low position during testing.

Make sure the tail linkages move freely and that paint or decals are not adhered to them.

Control Centering

Before the first lights, or in the event of an accident, make sure the light control surfaces are centered. Adjust the linkages mechanically if the control surfaces are not centered.

1. Reset sub-trims to zero. Ensure the servo arms are as perpendicular to the servo case as possible. Use sub-trim to fine-tune as needed.
2. When an adjustment of linkages is needed, pull the tube from the clevis to the linkage.
3. Carefully spread the clevis and adjust the length of the linkage by screwing the clevis in or out. Reattach the clevis in the proper hole in the control horn.
4. Move the tube to tighten the clevis onto the control horn.

Centering Controls After First Flights

If the model requires excessive transmitter trim, return the transmitter trim to zero and adjust the linkages mechanically so that the control surfaces are in the flight trimmed position.

Flying Tips and Repairs

Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft.

We recommend fl ying your aircraft outside in no greater than moderate winds or inside a large gymnasium.

Always avoid fl ying near houses, trees, wires and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid fl ying in areas where there are many people, such as busy parks, schoolyards or soccer fi elds.

Range Check Your Radio System

After fi nal assembly, range check the radio system with the aircraft. Refer to your specifi c transmitter and receiver instruction manuals for range test information.

Flying

This aircraft is extremely responsive to control input. Fly at low rate settings until you are familiar with its response.

Fly your first attempts at high rate settings at high altitude and slow speeds.

Hand Launching

When hand-launching your aircraft alone, hold the aircraft in one hand and the transmitter in the other. Hold the aircraft by the fuselage under the wings. Firmly throw the aircraft directly into the wind, angled slightly up (5 to 10 degrees above the horizon) with full throttle. Climb to check trim. Once trim is adjusted, begin exploring the flight envelope of the aircraft.

Landing

Make sure to land on a soft surface, like grass. Fly the aircraft into the wind approximately 36 inches (90cm) or less above the surface, using a small amount of throttle for the entire descent. Keep the throttle on until the aircraft is ready to fl are. During fl are, keep the wings level and the aircraft pointed into the wind. Gently lower the throttle while pulling back on the elevator to bring the aircraft down on its belly. Fully lower the throttle just before the aircraft lands to avoid propeller damage.

NOTICE: If a crash is imminent, reduce the throttle and trim fully. Failure to do so could result in extra damage to the airframe, as well as damage to the ESC and motor.

NOTICE: Crash damage is not covered under warranty.

Repairs

Repair this aircraft using foam-compatible CA (cyanoacrylate adhesive) glue or clear tape. Only use foam-compatible CA glue as other types of glue can damage the foam.

When parts are not repairable, see the Replacement Parts List for ordering by item number.

For a listing of all replacement and optional parts, refer to the list at the back of this manual.

NOTICE: Use of foam-compatible CA accelerant on your aircraft can damage paint. DO NOT handle the aircraft until accelerant fully dries.

NOTICE: When you are fi nished fl ying, 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.
