PNP Receiver Selection and Installation
The Spektrum AR636 receiver is recommended for ths airplane. If you choose
to install another receiver, ensure that it is at least a 6-channel full range
(sport) receiver. Refer to your receiver manual for correct installation and
operation instructions.
Installation (AR636 shown)
1. Remove the wing from the fuselage.
2. Mount the receiver parallel to the length of the fuselage as shown. Use
double-sided servo tape.
CAUTION: Incorrect installation of the receiver could cause a crash.
3. Attach the appropriate control surfaces to the their respective ports on the
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
transmitter to the receiver for proper operation.
IMPORTANT: Before binding a transmitter, read the Transmitter Setup section
of this manual to ensure that your transmitter is properly programmed for this
aircraft.
™
DSM2®/DSMX® technology equipped aircraft
Binding Procedure
IMPORTANT: The included AR636 receiver has been programmed for
operation specifi cally for 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 com-
plete 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 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. 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.
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.

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. Apply hook and loop tape to the bottom of your battery.
3. Push the button (A) into the fuselage and remove the battery hatch.
4. Install the fully charged battery (B) in the battery compartment as shown.
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 6 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 battery hatch. Push the rear of the battery hatch securely to
ensure the latch is fully engaged.

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. Fully lower the throttle.
2. Move the fl ap switch to full fl aps before performing this test.
IMPORTANT: The AR636 programming for this aircraft increases control surface movement when fl aps are fully down.
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.

Flying Tips and Repairs
EN
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.
Takeoff
Place the aircraft facing into the wind. Set your transmitter in low rate and
use your fl aps switch to drop the fl aps to takeoff or “half position”. Gradually
increase the throttle to ¾ and steer with the rudder. Flaps make takeoffs shorter. As the tail comes off the ground, pull back gently on the elevator.
When airborn, fl ip your gear switch to raise your landing gear. Climb to a comfortable altitude and then fl ip your fl aps switch to level the fl aps.
Flying
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.
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.
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.
WARNING:
Always decrease
throttle at propeller
strike.
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.
Landing
For your fi rst fl ights with the recommended battery pack (EFLB22003S30), set
your transmitter timer or a stopwatch to 5 minutes. After fi ve minutes, land the
aircraft. Adjust your timer for longer or shorter fl ights once you have fl own the
model. If at any time the motor pulses, 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.
Land the aircraft into the wind. Use high rate Elevator for landings. Use a small
amount of throttle for the entire descent. Lower the throttle to ¼ and fl ip your
fl aps switch to deploy the fl aps to the landing or “full down position”. Flaps
will make the landing approach steeper and slower, and allow for a
smoother landing. Flip your gear switch to lower your landing gear. This will
slow the aircraft further.
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 the front
wheels (two point landing). The aircraft can also be landed on all three wheels
(three point landing). When the aircraft touches down, reduce back pressure on
the elevator stick to keep the aircraft from becoming airborn again.
If landing on grass, it is best to hold full up elevator after touchdown and when
taxiing to prevent nosing over.
Once on the ground, avoid sharp turns until the plane has slowed enough to
prevent scraping the wingtips.
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.
