ASSEMBLY

Horizontal Tail

Fasten the flat tail to the positioning post below the vertical tail and lock the screw.

Wings

Put the wings together according to the picture. Make sure that the connection clicks into place.

Install the wings

First insert the positioning post on the wing connector into the positioning hole at the top of the nacelle and align the positioning hole on the trailing edge of the wing. Then insert the wing fixing pin and rotate it 90 degrees.

Installation front landing gear

Place the wing left and right struts on either side of battery compartment. Then put the front landing gear into the battery compartment.
Use the screws to secure the left and right struts to the battery compartment with the struts and connect the middle struts to the main struts.

INSTALLATION

Turn on the remote control. Open the battery cover, connect the battery to the receiver correctly. Then level the aircraft. If the receiver and remote-control lights are on, the binding is completed. Replace the battery cover.

RUDDER ADJUSTMENT

When the transmitter and receiver are connected, the rudder should be in the middle position. If this is not the case, turn the joint on the link rod until the rudder is correctly aligned.

START ON THE GROUND

Place the aircraft on the ground windward, check the servos and the servo direction.
Push the throttle stick to 100% and pull the control lever slightly down to start the aircraft.

LANDING

To land the aircraft, slowly pull the throttle stick down. By gently pushing the throttle, the nose of the aircraft descends. Once the plane hits the ground, pull the throttle all the way down.

3D / 6G CONVERSION

The default value is 6G setting mode. The 3D is activated by pressing the switch once.
In 3D mode, press switch, the aircraft immediately returns to stabilized flight (6G mode).
The 6G mode is suitable for beginners, the 3D mode for aerobatics.

AFTER THE FLIGHT

Remove the battery after the flight and store it in a safe place. We recommend charging the battery to storage voltage (3.8V per cell).

IMPORTANT NOTE
Never leave the battery connected on the plane. This will damage the battery and there is a risk of fire.

REPLACE PROPELLER

A. Unscrew the screw from the propeller
B. Pull out the propeller from motor shaft

REPLACE HUB

REPLACE MOTOR

A. Remove the screws on the motor mount with a screwdriver.
B. Push the motor up out of the bracket.
C. Loosen the screw on the fixing plate.
D. Pull the motor off the fixing plate.

THE TRANSMITTER

MODE 1
MODE 2

MATCHING FREQUENCY

The transmitter and receiver are already connected at factory. If you want to reconnect, please follow the steps below:

Connect the battery to the receiver and place the aircraft on the ground. Turn on the transmitter. Pull the throttle fully down.
The red LED on the receiver flashes and then changes to steady lights. The binding was completed.
If you carry out the binding process, make sure that there is no second remote control of the same type nearby, as this would lead to malfunctions.

PREPERATION

First, power on the remote control. Make sure the throttle stick is at the lowest position and the other stick is in the middle position.
Open the battery cover and connect the battery with the receiver.
When the battery is connected and the frequency is matched, close the battery cover.

USB CHARGER

Insert the USB Plug into the USB-Slot on PC or smartphone-charger. The red light is on.
Insert the battery into the USB charging port and the green light starts to flash slowly. If the green light is permanently on, the battery is full.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Please charge the battery under the supervision of someone.
Children should not charge the battery by themselves or without supervision and assistance of an adult.

PRE-FLIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Turn on the transmitter, put the plane on a clean flat platform, connect the power battery and cover it. Before the moto is running (in this case the gyroscope is not involved in the work) need to check if the rudder is in neutral position and if the deflection direction is correct. Then check whether the motor is running smoothly.
Check if the position of aircraft gravity center is in a reasonable range. Normally the gravity center should be in the range from 55 ~ 65mm from the wings.

3D / 6G MODE SWITCH

The default is 6G mode, which makes the flight more stable. When you are skilled in flight and want to do stunts, you can press the switch button to 3D mode (3D mode remote control slow flashing red). Attention: the operating system is more sensitive in 3D mode. Please switch the 3D mode when the aircraft is at high altitude to familiarize yourself with flight and pay attention to flight safety.
6G mode: more stable flight. The plane can only fly flat, con not roll, inverted fly, somersaults or any other stunts.
Note: this flight modes can be arbitrarily switched by a switch as the following figure. If the aircraft cause emergency in 3D mode, switch to mode of 6G made the aircraft to level flight immediately to reduce the crashes possibility.
