SAFE® Select Technology

The evolutionary SAFE® Select technology can offer an extra level of protection so you can perform the ﬁ rst ﬂ ight with conﬁ dence. No complex transmitter programming is required. Just follow the simple bind process to make the SAFE Select system active. When activated, bank and pitch limitations keep you from over-controlling and automatic self-leveling makes recovery from risky or confusing attitudes as simple as releasing the sticks. In fact, with the aileron, elevator and rudder sticks in the neutral position, SAFE Select will automatically keep the airplane in a straight and level attitude.

Expand the advantage of what SAFE the system ON and OFF with the ﬂ ip of a switch. For example, turn SAFE select ON to help with water takeoffs. Turn it OFF in ﬂ ight for unrestricted aerobatic performance, and turn it back ON when a buddy wants to try out your cool ICON A5. Turn SAFE Select ON for landings. As you drop the landing gear, SAFE Select reduces your workload by compensating for pitch changes automatically, regardless of throttle position. It will help keep the correct pitch attitude and wings level during the ﬁ nal approach. Whether you’re a beginner or an expert, SAFE Select can make your ﬂ ights a great experience.

When the normal bind process is followed, the SAFE Select system is disabled, leaving specially tuned AS3X ﬂ ight experience.

Select technology offers by assigning it to a switch. No transmitter programming is required and you’ll be able to turn

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.

4. Place the aircraft level on its wheels. Connect the ﬂ ight battery to the ESC. The ESC will produce a series of sounds. One long tone, then 3 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. Remove the bind plug from the bind port.

6. Take 3 steps away from the aircraft/receiver and then power ON the transmitter while holding the transmitter bind button or switch. Refer to your transmitter’s manual for speciﬁ c binding instructions.

IMPORTANT: Do not to point the transmitter’s antenna directly at the receiver while binding.

IMPORTANT: Keep away from large metal objects while binding.

7. The receiver is bound to the transmitter when the orange bind light on the receiver stays orange. The ESC will also 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.

IMPORTANT: Once bound, the receiver will retain its bind and last setting until it has been intentionally changed, even when power is cycled ON and OFF. However, if you notice that bind has been lost, simply repeat the binding processs.

SAFE Select ON Indication

Every time the receiver is powered ON the surfaces will cycle back and forth twice with a slight pause at neutral position to indicate that SAFE Select is switched ON.

Battery Installation and ESC Arming

Battery Selection

We recommend the E-ﬂ ite® 2200mAh 11.1V 3S 30C Li-Po battery (EFLB22003S30). Refer to the Optional Parts List for other recommended 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. Carefully lift the back of the battery hatch (A) to remove.

3. For added security, apply the loop side (soft side) of the optional hook and loop tape (B) to the bottom of your battery and the hook side to the battery tray.

4. Install the fully charged battery (C) all the way forward in the battery compartment as shown. Secure using the hook and loop strap (D).

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

6. Keep the aircraft immobile and away from wind or the system will not initialize.

• The ESC will sound a series of tones (refer to step 7 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.

7. Reinstall the battery hatch.

Optional

CAUTION: Always

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

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. Raise the throttle just above 25%, then lower the throttle to activate AS3X technology.

CAUTION: Keep all body parts, hair and loose clothing away from a moving propeller, as these items could become entangled.

IMPORTANT: The AR636 programming for this aircraft increases control surface movement when landing gear is attached.

2. 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 remains active until the battery is disconnected.

In Flight Trimming

During your ﬁ rst ﬂ ight, trim the aircraft for level ﬂ ight at 3/4 throttle. Make small trim adjustments with your transmitter’s trim switches to straighten the aircraft’s ﬂ ight path.

After adjusting trim, do not touch the control sticks for 3 seconds. This allows the receiver to learn the correct settings to optimize AS3X performance.

Failure to do so could affect ﬂ ight performance.

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, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide for more information.

Just Before Flight

For your ﬁ rst ﬂ ights with the recommended battery pack (EFLB22003S30), set your transmitter timer or a stopwatch to 7 minutes. After seven minutes, land the aircraft. Adjust your timer for longer or shorter ﬂ ights once you have ﬂ own the model.

3 Seconds

Tip: If the aircraft starts skipping during takeoff, move the battery so it sits in the rear part of the battery cavity, or use more up elevator during the takeoff run.

To land the aircraft on water, ﬂ y the airplane to a couple of feet off the surface of the water. Reduce throttle and add up elevator to ﬂ are the model.

When taxiing, you must use some throttle to give propeller blast over the rudder to steer, as there is no water rudder.

Avoid taxiing cross wind if there is a breeze, as this can cause the aircraft to ﬂ ip over if the wind gets under the upwind wing. Taxi at 45 degrees into the direction of the wind (not directly into the wind) and use aileron to hold the upwind wing down.

The aircraft will try to face into the wind when taxiing. The wind will naturally turn the airplane to face into the wind.

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: 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.

Takeoff

Place the aircraft facing into the wind. Set your transmitter to low rate. Gradually increase the throttle to ¾ and steer with the rudder. Avoid forcing the aircraft into the air.

Flying

Fly the aircraft and trim it for level ﬂ ight at 3/4 throttle After adjusting trim in ﬂ ight do not touch the control sticks for 3 seconds. This allows the receiver to learn the correct settings to optimize AS3X performance.

Do Not ﬂ y to LVC. If at any time the motor pulses (LVC), land the aircraft immediately to recharge the ﬂ ight battery. See the Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC) section for more details on maximizing battery health and run time.

Landing

Land the aircraft into the wind and use high rate elevator for landings. Slowly descend the aircraft to a couple of feet off the ground at about 1/4

throttle. Reduce power to idle and increase the up elevator to ﬂ are the model. Try to avoid touching the nose wheel ﬁ rst as this will cause a bounce. Once the airplane touches down, reduce back pressure on the elevator stick to prevent the plane from becoming airborne again.

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 wheels.

Takeoff and Landing on Water

To take off on water, steer with the rudder and slowly increase throttle. Keep the wings level on the takeoff. Hold a small amount (1/4–1/3) of up elevator and the airplane will lift off once ﬂ ying speed is reached. Avoid rapidly increasing the throttle as the torque from the motor may cause the ICON A5 to roll to the left when on water.

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 aircraft.

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.

Extra propeller noise or extra vibration

Reduced ﬂ ight time or aircraft underpowered

Aircraft will not Bind (during binding) to transmitter

Aircraft will not connect (after binding) to transmitter

Control surface does not move

Controls reversed Transmitter settings are reversed

Motor power pulses then motor loses power

Throttle not at idle and/or throttle trim too high Reset controls with throttle stick and throttle trim at lowest setting Throttle servo travel is lower than 100% Make sure throttle servo travel is 100% or greater

Throttle channel is reversed Reverse throttle channel on transmitter Motor disconnected from ESC Make sure motor is connected to the ESC Damaged propeller and spinner, collet or motor Replace damaged parts Propeller is out of balance Balance or replace propeller Prop nut is too loose Tighten the prop nut

Flight battery charge is low Completely recharge ﬂ ight battery Propeller installed backwards Install propeller with numbers facing forward

Flight battery damaged Replace ﬂ ight battery and follow ﬂ ight battery instructions Flight conditions may be too cold Make sure battery is warm before use Battery capacity too low for flight conditions Replace battery or use a larger capacity battery

Transmitter too near aircraft during binding process

Aircraft or transmitter is too close to large metal object, wireless source or another transmitter

The bind plug is not installed correctly in the bind port Install bind plug in bind port and bind the aircraft to the transmitter Flight battery/transmitter battery charge is too low Replace/recharge batteries Bind switch or button not held long enough during

bind process Transmitter too near aircraft during connecting

process Aircraft or transmitter is too close to large metal

object, wireless source or another transmitter Bind plug left installed in bind port Rebind transmitter to the aircraft and remove the bind plug before cycling power Aircraft bound to different model memory

(ModelMatch Flight battery/Transmitter battery charge is too low Replace/recharge batteries Transmitter may have been bound to a different

aircraft using different DSM protocol Control surface, control horn, linkage or servo damage Replace or repair damaged parts and adjust controls Wire damaged or connections loose Do a check of wires and connections, connect or replace as needed Transmitter is not bound correctly or the incorrect

AMA National Model Aircraft Safety Code

Effective January 1, 2014

A. GENERAL

A model aircraft is a non-human-carrying aircraft capable of sustained ﬂ ight in the atmosphere. It may not exceed limitations of this code and is intended exclusively for sport, recreation, education and/or competition. All model ﬂ ights must be conducted in accordance with this safety code and any additional rules speciﬁ c to the ﬂ ying site.

1. Model aircraft will not be ﬂ own: (a) In a careless or reckless manner. (b) At a location where model aircraft activities are prohibited.

2. Model aircraft pilots will: (a) Yield the right of way to all man carrying aircraft. (b) See and avoid all aircraft and a spotter must be used when appropriate. (AMA Document #540-D.) (c) Not ﬂ y higher than approximately 400 feet above ground level within three (3) miles of an airport, without notifying the airport operator. (d) Not interfere with operations and trafﬁ c patterns at any airport, heliport or seaplane base except where there is a mixed use agreement. (e) Not exceed a takeoff weight, including fuel, of 55 pounds unless in compliance with the AMA Large Model Aircraft program. (AMA Document 520-A.) (f) Ensure the aircraft is identiﬁ ed with the name and address or AMA number of the owner on the inside or afﬁ xed to the outside of the model aircraft. (This does not apply to model aircraft ﬂ own indoors). (g) Not operate aircraft with metal-blade propellers or with gaseous boosts except for helicopters operated under the provisions of AMA Document #555. (h) Not operate model aircraft while under the inﬂ uence of alcohol or while using any drug which could adversely affect the pilot’s ability to safely control the model. (i) Not operate model aircraft carrying pyrotechnic devices which explode or burn, or any device which propels a projectile or drops any object that creates a hazard to persons or property.

Exceptions:

• Free Flight fuses or devices that burn producing smoke and are

securely attached to the model aircraft during ﬂ ight.

• Rocket motors (using solid propellant) up to a G-series size may

be used provided they remain attached to the model during ﬂ ight. Model rockets may be ﬂ own in accordance with the National Model Rocketry Safety Code but may not be launched from model aircraft.

• Ofﬁ cially designated AMA Air Show Teams (AST) are authorized to

use devices and practices as deﬁ ned within the Team AMA Program Document (AMA Document #718). (j) Not operate a turbine-powered aircraft, unless in compliance with the AMA turbine regulations. (AMA Document #510-A).

3. Model aircraft will not be ﬂ own in AMA sanctioned events, air shows or

model demonstrations unless: (a) The aircraft, control system and pilot skills have successfully

demonstrated all maneuvers intended or anticipated prior to the speciﬁ c event.

(b) An inexperienced pilot is assisted by an experienced pilot.

4. When and where required by rule, helmets must be properly worn and

fastened. They must be OSHA, DOT, ANSI, SNELL or NOCSAE approved or comply with comparable standards.

B. RADIO CONTROL

1. All pilots shall avoid ﬂ ying directly over unprotected people, vessels,

vehicles or structures and shall avoid endangerment of life and property of others.

2. A successful radio equipment ground-range check in accordance with

manufacturer’s recommendations will be completed before the ﬁ rst ﬂ ight of a new or repaired model aircraft.

3. At all ﬂ ying sites a safety line(s) must be established in front of which all ﬂ ying takes place (AMA Document #706.)

(a) Only personnel associated with ﬂ ying the model aircraft are allowed at or in front of the safety line.

(b) At air shows or demonstrations, a straight safety line must be established.

(c) An area away from the safety line must be maintained for spectators. (d) Intentional ﬂ ying behind the safety line is prohibited.

4. RC model aircraft must use the radio-control frequencies currently allowed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Only individuals properly licensed by the FCC are authorized to operate equipment on Amateur Band frequencies.

5. RC model aircraft will not operate within three (3) miles of any pre-existing ﬂ ying site without a frequency-management agreement (AMA Documents #922 and #923.)

6. With the exception of events ﬂ own under ofﬁ cial AMA Competition Regulations, excluding takeoff and landing, no powered model may be ﬂ own outdoors closer than 25 feet to any individual, except for the pilot and the pilot’s helper(s) located at the ﬂ ight line.

7. Under no circumstances may a pilot or other person touch a model aircraft in ﬂ ight while it is still under power, except to divert it from striking an individual.

8. RC night ﬂ ying requires a lighting system providing the pilot with a clear view of the model’s attitude and orientation at all times. Hand-held illumi nation systems are inadequate for night ﬂ ying operations.

9. The pilot of a RC model aircraft shall: (a) Maintain control during the entire ﬂ ight, maintaining visual contact

without enhancement other than by corrective lenses prescribed for the pilot.

(b) Fly using the assistance of a camera or First-Person View (FPV) only in accordance with the procedures outlined in AMA Document #550.

(C) Fly using the assistance of autopilot or stabilization system only in accordance with the procedures outlined in AMA Document #560.

Please see your local or regional modeling association’s guidelines for proper, safe operation of your model aircraft.
