Transmitter Setup

IMPORTANT: Set up your transmitter before binding your transmitter to the

aircraft.

Transmitters DX6i and Above

Start all transmitter programming with a blank ACRO model (do a model reset), then name the model. Leave all settings at default.

Dual Rates and Expo

Dual Rates and Expo are factory set in the receiver. GEAR / Channel 5 operates 2 ﬂ ight modes: Position 1 is Low Rate, and Position 0 is High Rate.

Take ﬁ rst ﬂ ights in Low Rate ﬂ ight mode.

NOTICE: If oscillation occurs at high speed, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide for more information.

Transmitter and Receiver Binding

Binding Procedure

IMPORTANT: The included AR636 receiver has been programmed for operation in only this aircraft. Refer to the receiver manual for correct setup if the receiver is replaced or is used in another aircraft.

Read the transmitter instructions for binding to a receiver (location of transmitter’s Bind control). 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.

1. Make sure the transmitter is powered off.

2. Move the transmitter controls to neutral (ﬂ ight controls: rudder, elevators and ailerons) or to low positions (throttle, throttle trim).**

3. Install a bind plug in the receiver bind port extension.

4. Connect the ﬂ ight battery to the ESC. The ESC will produce a series of sounds. One long tone, then 4 short tones conﬁ rm that the LVC is set correctly for the ESC. The orange bind LED on the receiver will begin to ﬂ ash rapidly.

5. Power on the transmitter while holding the transmitter bind button or switch. Refer to your transmitter’s manual for binding.

6. When the receiver binds to the transmitter, the orange bind light on the receiver will turn solid and the ESC will produce a series of three ascending tones. The tones indicate the ESC is armed, provided the throttle stick and throttle trim are low enough to trigger arming.

7. Remove the bind plug from the bind port extension.

8. Safely store the bind plug (some owners attach the bind plug to their transmitter using two-part loops and clips).

9. 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 control is not put at the lowest position. If you encounter problems, follow the binding instructions and refer to the transmitter troubleshooting guide for other instructions. If needed, contact the appropriate Horizon Product Support ofﬁ ce.

**Failsafe

If the receiver loses transmitter communication, the failsafe will activate. When activated, the airplane controls return to the neutral position established during step 2 of the binding procedure.

Bind Plug Installation

BIND PLUG

Battery Installation and ESC Arming

Battery Selection

We recommend the E-ﬂ ite® 3200mAh 14.8V 4S 30C Li-Po battery (EFLB32004S30). Refer to the Optional Parts List for other E-ﬂ ite batteries. If using a battery other than those listed, the battery should be within the range of capacity, dimensions and weight of the E-ﬂ ite Li-Po battery packs to ﬁ t in the fuselage. Be sure the model balances at the recommended CG.

1. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest settings. Power on the Transmitter, then wait 5 seconds.

2. Apply hook and loop tape to the bottom of your battery.

3. Remove the canopy hatch.

4. Install the fully charged battery (B) in the center of the battery compartment. See the Adjusting the Center of Gravity instructions for more

information.

5. Make sure the ﬂ ight battery is secured using the hook and loop strap (C).

6. Connect the battery to the ESC (the ESC is now armed).

7. Keep the aircraft immobile and away from wind for 5 seconds or the system will not initialize.

• The ESC will sound a series of tones (refer to step 4 of the binding instructions for more information).

• An LED will light on the receiver. If the ESC sounds a continuous double beep after the ﬂ ight battery is

connected, recharge or replace the battery.

8. Reinstall the canopy hatch.

Center of Gravity (CG)

The CG location is measured from the leading edge of the wing at the root. This CG location has been determined with the recommended Li-Po battery (EFLB32004S30) installed in the middle of the battery compartment.

6.1 inches back from the leading edge of the wing at the root.

Control Direction Tests

Assemble the aircraft and bind your transmitter to the receiver before performing these tests. After binding a transmitter to the aircraft receiver, set the trims and sub-trims to 0, then adjust the clevises to center the control surfaces. Move the controls on the transmitter to make sure the aircraft control surfaces move in the proper direction.

AS3X Control Direction Test

This test ensures that the AS3X® control system is functioning properly. Assemble the aircraft and bind your transmitter to the receiver before performing this test.

1. Advance the throttle to 25% to activate the AS3X system.

2. Fully lower the throttle.

3. Move the entire aircraft as shown and ensure the control surfaces move in the direction indicated in the graphic. If the control surfaces do not respond as shown, do not ﬂ y the aircraft. Refer to the receiver manual for more information.

Once the AS3X system is active, control surfaces may move rapidly. This is normal. AS3X is active until the battery is disconnected.

AS3X Reaction

Flying Tips and Repairs

Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a ﬂ ying location.

Range Check your Radio System

Before you ﬂ y, range check the radio system. Refer to your speciﬁ c transmitter instruction manual for range test information.

Oscillation

Once the AS3X system is active (after advancing the throttle for the ﬁ rst time), you will normally see the control surfaces react to aircraft movement. In some ﬂ ight conditions you may see oscillation (the aircraft rocks back and forth on one axis due to overcontrol). If oscillation occurs, decrease airspeed. If oscillation persists, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide for more information.

ROG Takeoff

Place the aircraft in position for takeoff (facing into the wind). Select low rates for ﬁ rst takeoff and gradually increase the throttle to full and steer with the rudder. Allow the model to accelerate to ﬂ ying speed, then pull back gently on the elevator and climb to a comfortable altitude.

Hand launch

It is advisable to have a helper for the ﬁ rst few hand launches. Hold the airplane behind the wing with the throwing hand and support the nose with the opposite hand. Run the motor up to full throttle and give a FIRM throw straight ahead. The aircraft should be launched ﬁ rmly with the nose up 5–10 degrees and directly into the wind.

Flying

If this is your ﬁ rst ducted fan aircraft, just remember that because there is no prop blast blowing air over the control surfaces, the controls will not be as responsive at low speeds. The aircraft is easy to ﬂ y, but because it can reach a very high speed, plan your ﬂ ight path to avoid obstacles or people.

Fly the aircraft and trim it for level ﬂ ight at 3/4 throttle. After landing, adjust the linkages mechanically to account for trim changes and then reset the trims to neutral. Ensure the aircraft will ﬂ y straight and level with no trim or sub-trim.

Tip: If using more than 8 clicks of ﬂ ight trim, mechanically adjust the linkage so less trim is needed, or AS3X operation may be affected.

Landing

For your ﬁ rst ﬂ ights with the included or recommended battery pack (EFLB32004S30), set your transmitter timer or a stopwatch to 4 minutes. After 4 minutes, land the aircraft. If at any time the motor pulses, land the air- craft immediately to recharge the ﬂ ight battery. See the Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC) section for more details on maximizing battery health and run time.

Land the aircraft into the wind. Approach the runway at 1/4 to 1/8 throttle. Use the power to control altitude and the elevator to control angle of attack. Once your glide path is established, ﬂ y the aircraft down to about a foot (30 cm) off the runway. Gradually reduce power and ﬂ are the aircraft to touch down on the main wheels ﬁ rst. Reduce elevator input to set the nosewheel on the ground and steer with the rudder stick until the aircraft has come to a stop.

CAUTION: Always lower the throttle after

landing to avoid accidental intake of materials, which could result in possible damage to the rotor and/ or motor and cause personal injury.

NOTICE: After any impact, always ensure the receiver is secure in the fuselage. If you replace the receiver, install the new receiver in the same orientation as the original receiver or damage may result.

NOTICE: Crash damage is not covered under warranty.

NOTICE: When you are ﬁ nished ﬂ ying, 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 decrease throttle at ground contact.

Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)

When a Li-Po battery is discharged below 3V per cell, it will not hold a charge. The ESC protects the ﬂ ight battery from over-discharge using Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). Before the battery charge decreases too much, LVC removes power supplied to the motor. Power to the motor pulses, showing that some battery power is reserved for ﬂ ight control and safe landing.

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. LVC does not prevent the battery from over-discharge during storage.

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

Tip: Monitor your aircraft battery’s voltage before and after ﬂ ying by using a

Li-Po Cell Voltage Checker (EFLA111, sold separately).

Repairs

Thanks to the Z-Foam™ material in this aircraft, repairs to the foam can be made using virtually any adhesive (hot glue, regular CA, epoxy, etc). 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 end of this manual.

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

Belly Landing

If landing on grass without the landing gear, use the same approach as if ﬂ ying with landing gear. Start your ﬂ are with the power off about 1 foot (30 cm) above the ground and hold the nose off until the tail touches down. Try to keep the wings level to prevent clipping a wing on the ground.

Post Flight

Disconnect the ﬂ ight battery from the ESC (Required for Safety

and battery life). 2 Power OFF the transmitter. 3 Remove the ﬂ ight battery from the aircraft. 4 Recharge the ﬂ ight battery.
