IMPORTANT!!! Two of the most important things you can
do to preserve the radio controlled aircraft hobby are to avoid
fl ying near full-scale aircraft and avoid fl ying near or over
the Corsair, if not assembled and operated correctly, could
possibly cause injury to yourself or spectators and damage
to property.
2. You must assemble the model according to the instructions. Do not alter or modify the model, as doing
so may result in an unsafe or unfl yable model. In a few
cases the instructions may differ slightly from the photos. In
those instances the written instructions should be considered
as correct.
3. If you are not an experienced pilot or have not fl own this type
of model before, we recommend that you get the assistance
of an experienced pilot in your R/C club for your fi rst fl ights.
If you’re not a member of a club, your local hobby shop has
information about clubs in your area whose membership
includes experienced pilots.
4. While this kit has been fl ight tested to exceed normal
use, if the plane will be used for extremely high stress fl ying,
such as racing, or if a more powerful motor is installed, the
modeler is responsible for taking steps to reinforce the high
stress points and/or substituting hardware more suitable for
the increased stress.
We, as the kit manufacturer, provide you with a top quality,
thoroughly tested kit and instructions, but ultimately the
quality and fl yability of your fi nished model depends
on how you build it; therefore, we cannot in any way
guarantee the performance of your completed model,
and no representations are expressed or implied as to the
performance or safety of your completed model.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Protect Your Model, Yourself & Others…
Follow These Important Safety Precautions
1. Your Corsair should not be considered a toy, but rather a
sophisticated, working model that functions very much like
a full-size airplane. Because of its performance capabilities,
ADDITIONAL ITEMS REQUIRED
Radio Control System
The Corsair Tx-R (transmitter ready) comes with the servos
and a Tactic™ TR624 receiver installed, so all that is required is
a 5+channel transmitter. The Tactic TTX600 2.4GHz spread
spectrum 6-channel radio control system (TACJ2600) is
2
included with the RTF (ready to fl y) version of the Corsair,
so this same radio system is ideal for your Tx-R version, too.
❍ Tactic TTX600 2.4GHz 6-channel system (TACJ2600)
❍ (4) AA batteries will be required to operate the
recommended transmitter (FUGP7300).
If you already own a transmitter that you plan to use with the
Corsair, fi rst make sure it is in the compatibility list at www.
Tx-Ready.com/anylink-chart.html. If so, you can purchase
the AnyLink 2.4GHz Universal Radio Adapter to allow your
transmitter to communicate with the pre-installed Tactic receiver.
The Corsair RTF comes complete with a motor battery and
charger. The Tx-R version requires a 2100mAh 11.1V LiPo
battery and LiPo Charger. The Corsair was designed for the
Flyzone 2100 mAh 11.1V LiPo battery (FLZA6173). Other LiPo
batteries similar in size with the same voltage and capacity
may also work, but they may not fi t properly in the battery
compartment or have the same type of battery connector. In
addition to a battery, a LiPo battery charger is also required and
there are several that will work (depending on your budget and
requirements). A safe, economical charger is the ElectriFly® 3S
(3-cell/11.1V) LiPo Smart Charger (GPMM3318). The Smart
Charger includes adapters to charge from a 110V wall outlet
or a 12V DC outlet from a car. The Smart Charger will take
approximately 4-1/2 hours to fully charge the battery. Some
pilots prefer to have several batteries and charge them faster
so they can fl y more. For charging up to four batteries faster at
the same time, the Great Planes PolyCharge4™ DC-powered
LiPo charger (GPMM3015) is recommended. But unlike the
Smart Charger, the PolyCharge4 does not have an internal
LiPo cell balancer which is a critical component in making sure
your LiPo batteries charge effi ciently and evenly. So, for each
LiPo battery you wish to charge simultaneously, one Great
Planes Equinox™ LiPo Cell Balancer (GPMM3160) will also be
required. Finally, the PolyCharge4 does not have AC capability,
so if wall charging is a priority, a separate AC 12-Volt power
source must also be purchased separately. A suitable power
supply for the PolyCharge4 is the Great Planes 12V 12A DC
power supply (GPMP0901).
Required Assembly Tool
Other than common hobby tools this is the list of adhesives
and building supplies that are required to fi nish the Corsair.
❍ Phillips screwdriver
❍ Small crescent wrench
❍ Great Planes stick-on lead weight (Optional, GPMQ4485)

ASSEMBLE THE MODEL
Before starting to assemble the Corsair, we recommend
charging the fl ight battery. Then, when you are ready to setup the radio system, the fl ight battery can be used to power
the receiver.
Charge the Battery
The following is an overview of how to charge your motor
battery using the ElectriFly Smart Charger. If you are using a
different LiPo charger, carefully follow the instructions included
with the charger.
1. Connect the input power to the charger. The GREEN LED
will be lit, indicating standby mode. The RED LED will be OFF.
5. Propeller and Prop Adapter
6. Prop Nut
7. Hook and Loop Material
8. Screws
2. Connect the battery to be charged to the balance plug.
The RED LED will also be lit, and remain RED during the
charging. Both LEDs should be lit solid while charging.
3. If the battery was completely discharged, the RED and
GREEN LEDs will start to fl ash after 2-hours and 40-minutes.
The charger has a built in safety timer.
4. Disconnect the battery from the charger, wait for the GREEN
LED to be lit, and then reconnect the battery to the charger.
5. It will take approximately 1-1/2 hours more to complete
the charge. When the battery is fully charged, the GREEN
LED will turn OFF. Remove the battery from the charger
at this time.

Battery Charging Precautions
●Be careful to avoid overcharging the battery. Only use a LiPo
approved charger. Never use a NiCd/NiMH peak charger.
●Remember to check the temperature of the battery during
the charge. The battery should not get hot. If it does, unplug
the battery from the charger.
1. Slide the elevator pushrod out of the aft end of the
❏
fuselage and connect the Z-bend on the wire into the outer
hole of the elevator control horn.
●Charge the battery at a maximum charge rate of 1.8 amps.
A higher charge rate will cause the battery to get hot.
●Never place the battery on combustible material or leave it
unattended while charging.
● Never charge the battery in the plane.
● We recommend that a balancing charger be used to charge
the battery. A properly cared for battery will last a long time. If
the battery pack is continually charged without balancing the
individual cells, the life of the battery pack will be shortened.
Battery Recycling
ATTENTION: The Corsair is powered by a rechargeable battery.
At the end of the battery’s useful life, under various state and
local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of the battery into the
municipal waste system. Check with your local solid waste
offi cials for details in your area for recycling options or proper
disposal. We encourage contacting your local recycling center
for more information.
2. Guide the elevator pushrod into the screw-lock connector
❏
on the elevator servo arm as you slide the horizontal stabilizer
into place.
5
3. Insert a 2.5x10mm screw into the hole at the aft end of
❏
the horizontal stabilizer and tighten it until snug.
6. Secure the vertical fi n in place with a 2.5x10mm screw.
❏
7. Fit the servo wires for the wing through the cutout in the
❏
fuselage as shown.
4. Center the elevators so they are in the neutral position
❏
with the horizontal stabilizer. Tighten the screw in the elevator
screw lock connector.
5. Insert the vertical fi n into the opening in the fuselage.
❏
Guide the rudder actuator wire into the slot in the rudder.
8. Connect the servo leads to the receiver. The leads are
❏
labeled as to which numbered channel slots they need to be
installed into.

CAUTION: Do not install the propeller on the plane until
instructed to do so.
1. If using the Tactic TTX600 radio system read the Radio

System Instructions section on page 14 in this manual. Then,
install four AA alkaline batteries in the transmitter with the
correct polarity.
2. Check that the servo reversing switches are confi gured

as shown.
produce a low tone. Moving the right stick on the transmitter
up and down will move the elevator on the plane up and down.
If the motor does not beep and the elevator does not move,
the receiver will need to be bound to the transmitter.
6. The receiver does not need to be removed from the
❏
fuselage to bind it to the transmitter. Make sure the throttle
stick is down in the idle or off position and the transmitter is
switched on. Insert a small screwdriver or paperclip through
the hole marked “Bind” and press the pushbutton until the
LED on the receiver glows red and then turns off after about
one second. Then, release the bind button. If the binding is
successful, the LED on the receiver will fl ash once and then
remain ON.
3. Position the throttle stick (left stick) to idle (all the way
❏
down) and switch on the transmitter. The power indicator light
should be glowing a steady red. A fl ashing red light and an
audible tone indicates low voltage. If this happens, replace
the batteries before connecting the fl ight battery.
4. Center the aileron, elevator, throttle and rudder trims on
❏
the transmitter by listening to the beeps. You will hear a low,
short beep each time you bump the trim. When you hear one
high, short beep the trim is centered. Experiment running the
trim to the limits a few times to familiarize yourself with the
trims. When fi nished, return all the trims to center.
Before connecting the battery to the plane, be aware that
depending on the position of your landing gear switch
on the transmitter the gear in the wing may come down.
Place the wing upside down on your work surface or leave
the gear servo lead disconnected from the receiver until
you are prepared to test it.
7. Make sure the motor brake function in the ESC is
❏
deactivated. When you advance the throttle stick, the motor
should turn. When you bring the throttle stick all the way back
down, the motor should come to a coasting stop. If the motor
stops quickly, the brake is on. To deactivate the brake, follow
the instructions on page 12.
CAUTION: Perform the following steps without the propeller
mounted to the motor. Do not install the propeller until
instructed to do so.
5. With the transmitter still switched on, connect the LiPo
❏
motor battery to the electronic speed control. The motor will

Adjust the Control Surfaces
1. Before mounting the wing, the control surfaces must be
❏
mechanically centered if they are not already. With the fl ight
battery plugged into the ESC and your transmitter on, confi rm
that the trims are centered on the transmitter. Move the left
control stick to the left and confi rm the rudder moves left. If
it moves right, fl ip the rudder (channel 4) reversing switch on
your transmitter if you are using the TTX600. If you are using
a different model transmitter, consult your radio manual. View
the model from behind to see if the rudder is aligned with the
vertical fi n (centered). If not, loosen the screw in the rudder
servo screw-lock connector and adjust the rudder pushrod
in the connector until the rudder is centered. When satisfi ed,
tighten the screw.
Check the Retracts
2. Move the right control stick down and confi rm that
❏
the elevators move up. If not, fl ip the elevator (channel 2)
reversing switch on your transmitter. As you did with the rudder,
mechanically center the elevator if necessary.
3. Moving the right control stick to the right should cause
❏
the right aileron to move up and the left aileron to move down.
If not, fl ip the aileron (channel 1) reversing switch on your
transmitter. Mechanically center the ailerons.
1. Mount the wing onto the fuselage using the 4 x 30mm
❏
screw. Be sure the excess servo leads are pulled out of the
way of tail servo arms and that they are not caught between
the wing and the wing saddle as the wing is seated onto
the fuselage.

❏
channel 5 on your receiver, connect it now. Turn the plane
on its back (take care not to damage the rudder) to test the
operation of the retracts. Moving the retract switch towards
you on the transmitter will lower the gear.
3. With the gear down, check each landing gear leg and
❏
confi rm they are “locked” in place. The gear is set at the factory
so it lowers to the locked position. However, if adjustment is
required it can be done by loosening the small screws in the
screw-lock connectors shown. The wires can be shifted forward
or aft in the connectors to alter the actuation of the gear legs.
If you made adjustments to the gear wires, be sure to check
their operation afterwards.
4. Leave the gear in the down position for checking the
❏
center of gravity in a later section.
Check the Control Throws
One major factor that determines how an airplane handles
in the air is the control surface throw, or how far each control
surface (aileron, elevator and rudder) moves up and down or
left and right. If the throw is too much, the plane will respond
too quickly. If the throw is too little, the plane will respond too
slowly. The control throws in the Corsair have already been
determined by where the pushrods are connected to the servo
arms and the control surfaces and by how far the servo arms
rotate. But, if you are using a radio control system different
than the one recommended, the servo arms could rotate more
or less than anticipated, changing the throws. Therefore, it’s a
good idea to double-check the throws just to make sure they
are acceptable. Follow the procedure below to make sure the
control throws are properly set.
1. Move the aileron, rudder, elevator and throttle sticks on
❏
the transmitter, making sure the controls respond in the correct
direction. Use the servo reversing function in the transmitter
to reverse any of the controls necessary.
Measure the elevator throw fi rst:
2. Use a small box or something similar to prop up the aft
❏
end of the fuselage so the stabilizer will be level (or nearly level).
3. Still without the propeller mounted on the motor, switch
❏
on your transmitter and connect the motor battery. Place a
ruler next to the trailing edge of the elevator at the widest part
(from front-to-back).
9
4. Use the transmitter to move the elevator up and measure
❏
the distance it moved from center. This is your “up” control
throw. Measure the down elevator control throw following the
same procedure. Compare the up and down elevator throw
to the recommended elevator throw below. Measure and
compare the rudder and aileron throws as well.
These are the recommended control surface throws:
ELEVATOR
RUDDER
AILERONS
LOW RATE
Up & Down
5/16" [8mm]
Right & Left
13/16" [ 21mm]
Up & Down
11/16" [17.5 mm]
HIGH RATE
Up & Down
7/16" [11mm]
Right & Left
1-1/4" [ 32 mm]
Up & Down
7/8" [22mm]
Note: If you ever install different servos in the plane or use a
different radio control system, make sure you check that you
still have the recommended control throws.
2. Thread the plastic spinner nut back onto the prop adapter
❏
until snug. It is not necessary to over-tighten the spinner nut
as doing so will strip out the hole in the nut. The spinner nut is
for scale detail only and does not aid in securing the propeller.
Note: With the propeller installed on the motor, you must
always be careful to stay clear of the prop blades whenever
the fl ight battery is plugged into the ESC! Always turn
on your transmitter fi rst and confi rm that the throttle stick
is all the way down before connecting the fl ight battery.
Always disconnect the battery fi rst before turning off the
transmitter.
3. Apply the
❏
piece of selfadhesive loop
material to your
fl ight battery.
Finish the Model
1. Remove the plastic spinner nut from the prop assembly by
❏
unthreading it. Loosen the aluminum prop nut on the assembly,
then slide the assembly onto the motor shaft. Thoroughly
tighten the prop nut with a wrench.
4. Test fi t the battery into the battery compartment. Do not
❏
connect the battery to the ESC until your transmitter is on,
the throttle stick is all the way down, and you are prepared
for the rotation of the propeller.

Check the C.G. (Center of Gravity)
The C.G. (Center of Gravity) is the location on the wing
where the model balances and has a great effect on how
the plane will fl y. If the C.G. is too far aft (tail heavy), the
model will be too responsive. If the C.G. is too far forward
(nose heavy), the model will not be responsive enough. As
provided to you, your Corsair should already be properly
balanced, or very nearly properly balanced, but it’s a good
idea to check the balance just in case. Follow the instructions
to make sure the model is balanced properly and the C.G.
is in the correct location.
your fi ngers on these marks and lift the plane upside down.
The fuselage should remain level – it may be helpful to have
an assistant view the plane from the side. If the fuselage does
not rest level, try moving your fi ngers under the wing. Your
fi ngers can be moved forward up to 1/4" [6.4 mm] or aft up to
5/16" [ 8 mm]. As long as the fuselage is level with your fi ngers
within the range, the balance is acceptable, and the plane is
ready to fl y. However, even if after moving your fi ngers the
acceptable 1/4" [6.4 mm] forward, the nose remains low, tail
weight will be required. Or, even if after moving your fi ngers
the acceptable 5/16" [8 mm] aft, the tail remains low, nose
weight will be required. Balance the plane as instructed below.
Note: Even if your Corsair balances perfectly on the
recommended balance point, later you may wish to change
its fl ying characteristics by moving the C.G. forward or aft.
Moving the C.G. forward (nose heavy) will make the plane
more stable which may be better for windier days, but this will
also make it less maneuverable. Moving the C.G. back (tail
heavy) will make the plane more maneuverable which is good
for experienced pilots who wish to perform aerobatics. In any
regard, start at the recommended balance point and never
fl y the model with the C.G. outside the recommended range.
3. Determine the amount of weight required by placing
❏
segments of Great Planes stick-on lead (GPMQ4485) or similar
weight, over the cowl or tail, but do not attach it yet.
1. Install the battery hatch (the battery is still installed in
❏
the battery compartment).
2. On the top of the wing, place a mark 2-7/8" (73mm) from
❏
the leading edge or use the panel lines as a reference. Place
4. Once the plane balances and you know how much lead
❏
will be required, permanently stick it into position. The best
place to add nose weight is to remove the propeller and dummy
engine and place the weight inside the cowl. If tail weight is
required, simply attach it to the side of the fuselage, under the
horizontal stabilizer.
11
5. Once the weight is attached, recheck the C.G. to make
❏
certain the plane still balances at the correct C.G. Once fi nished,
remove the battery. Never charge the battery while it is installed
in the model.
●The ESC has a soft cutoff. At 3.2V per cell the rpm of the motor
will slowly be reduced until it stops completely.
GET THE MODEL READY TO FLY
Important ESC Information
●The ESC included with the Corsair has a safe start. If the
motor battery is connected to the ESC and the throttle
stick is not in the low throttle or off position, the motor will
not start until the throttle stick is moved to the low throttle
or off position. Once the throttle stick is moved to the low
throttle or off position, the motor will give a short beep. The
motor is now armed and will start when the throttle
stick is moved.
●The motor and ESC come already connected and the motor
rotation should be correct. However, if you disconnected
the ESC from the motor and when you reconnected it, the
motor is rotating in the wrong direction, reverse any two of
the three motor wires.
●The motor has an optional brake setting. The ESC comes
with the brake switched off and we recommend that the
Corsair be fl own with the brake off. However, the brake could
be accidentally switch on if the motor battery is connected
to the ESC while the throttle stick is set at full throttle.
To toggle the brake function on and off, fi rst disconnect the
battery from the ESC if it is connected. Move the throttle
stick to full throttle. Connect the battery to the ESC. The
motor will fi rst make three incremental tones confi rming that
the battery voltage has been detected and is acceptable.
After two seconds the motor will emit two long beeps which
confi rms the throttle high position.
With the throttle stick still at full throttle the motor will emit
one short beep. Move the throttle to the lowest position
within two seconds of the beep to select BRAKE OFF, or
leave the throttle stick at full throttle to select BRAKE ON. If
the throttle stick is in the full throttle position, the motor will
emit two short beeps after two seconds. Move the throttle to
the lowest position within two seconds of the two beeps to
select BRAKE ON. If the throttle stick is left at full throttle for
more than two seconds after the two short beeps, then the
ESC will become disarmed and you will need to disconnect
the battery from the ESC and repeat this process.
With the throttle stick now at the lowest position the ESC
will emit one long beep confi rming the throttle low position.
It will then emit one short beep if the brake function is OFF
or two short beeps if the brake function is ON. The ESC is
now armed and ready to use.
If you do not hear any beeping from the ESC when the
battery is connected, the motor makes a repeated beeping
pattern, or the operation of the ESC does not coincide
with the procedure described, then check for the following
problems: The battery is not properly connected to the ESC,
the battery voltage is insuffi cient to operate the ESC, the
ESC is not receiving signal from the receiver (confi rm that
the transmitter and receiver are bound together and the
ESC is properly connected to the receiver), or the throttle
trim is set too high.
Identify Your Model
No matter if you fl y at an AMA sanctioned R/C club site or if you
fl y somewhere on your own, you should always have your name,
address, telephone number and AMA number on or inside your
model. It is required at all AMA R/C club fl ying sites and AMA
sanctioned fl ying events and simply a “good idea” even if fl ying
somewhere else. Write this information on a strip of masking
tape and place it on the inside of the battery hatch (or simply
write the information directly on the battery hatch).
FLYING THE CORSAIR
The Corsair is not intended for beginners. It is, however, easy
to fl y even for pilots with moderate experience. If you have not
previously fl own a trainer it is strongly suggested that you learn
to fl y with one fi rst. Or, get the assistance of an experienced pilot
to help you with the fi rst few fl ights.
Find a Suitable Flying Site
Find a fl ying site clear of buildings, trees, power lines and other
obstructions. Until you know how much area will be required and
have mastered fl ying your Corsair in confi ned spaces, a site at
least the size of two or three football fi elds should be adequate—a
fl ying fi eld specifi cally intended for R/C planes is best. Never fl y
near people—especially children who can wander unpredictably.
Perform a Range Check
As a precaution, an operational ground range test should be
performed before the fi rst fl ight each time you go out. Performing
a range test is a good way to detect problems that could cause
loss of control such as low batteries, defective or damaged
radio components or radio interference. This usually requires
an assistant and should be done at the actual fl ying site you
will be using.
First turn on the transmitter, then install the fully-charged battery
into the fuselage. Connect the battery and install the hatch.
Remember, use care not to “bump” the throttle stick.
Otherwise, the propeller will turn and possibly cause damage
or injury.
To range check the Tactic TTX600 radio control system, switch
on the transmitter and connect the motor battery to the ESC.
Set the model on the ground and have an assistant hold the
model. Walk 100’ (90m) from the model and while pointing
the transmitter at the plane, operate the controls ensuring
that the plane’s surfaces operate according to the transmitter
inputs. Operate the motor at different rpm. Have your assistant
alert you if the controls quit responding or move suddenly or
erratically. If you are using a different radio control system,
follow the instructions that came with your radio control system
to perform a ground range check.
12
If the controls aren’t working correctly or if anything seems
wrong, don’t fl y the model until you fi nd and correct the problem.
Make certain all the servo wires are securely connected to the
receiver and the transmitter batteries are in good condition.
Monitor Your Flight Time
Monitor and limit your fl ight time using a timer (such as one on
a wrist watch or in your transmitter if yours has one). When the
batteries are getting low you will usually notice a performance
drop before the ESC cuts off motor power, so when the plane
starts fl ying slower you should land. Often (but not always), power
can be briefl y restored after the motor cuts off by holding the
throttle stick all the way down for a few seconds.
To avoid an unexpected dead-stick landing on your fi rst fl ight,
set your timer to a conservative 4 minutes (in most conditions
the Corsair will usually fl y for approximately 5 minutes, but this
can vary). When your alarm sounds you can either land right
away, or if you are an experienced pilot you may continue to fl y
until you notice the airspeed begin to slow. Then, glide it in for
a landing. If planning a “dead-stick,” circle your Corsair upwind
of the landing area until the motor quits and note the run time.
When you learn how much fl ight time you are getting you can
adjust your timer accordingly. Always be conservative so the motor
won’t quit unexpectedly and you will have enough battery to land
under power. Ending your fl ight before the ESC cutoff shuts off
power to the motor will help maximize the lifespan of the battery.
FLYING
The Corsair is a great-fl ying model that fl ies smoothly and
predictably. The Corsair does not, however, possess the selfrecovery characteristics of a primary R/C trainer and should be
fl own only by experienced R/C pilots.
CAUTION (THIS APPLIES TO ALL R/C AIRPLANES): If, while
fl ying, you notice an alarming or unusual sound such as a lowpitched “buzz,” this may indicate control surface fl utter. Flutter
occurs when a control surface (such as an aileron or elevator)
or a fl ying surface (such as a wing or stab) rapidly vibrates up
and down (thus causing the noise). In extreme cases, if not
detected immediately, fl utter can actually cause the control
surface to detach or the fl ying surface to fail, thus causing loss
of control followed by an impending crash. The best thing to do
when fl utter is detected is to slow the model immediately by
reducing power, then land as soon as safely possible. Identify
which surface fl uttered (so the problem may be resolved) by
checking all the servo grommets for deterioration or signs of
vibration. Make certain all pushrod linkages are secure and
free of play. If it fl uttered once, under similar circumstances it
will probably fl utter again unless the problem is fi xed. Some
things which can cause fl utter are; Excessive hinge gap; Not
mounting control horns solidly; Poor fi t of clevis pin in horn;
Side-play of wire pushrods caused by large bends; Excessive
free play in servo gears; Insecure servo mounting; and one of
the most prevalent causes of fl utter; Flying an over-powered
model at excessive speeds.
Takeoff
Before you get ready to takeoff, see how the model handles on
the ground by doing a few practice runs at low speeds on the
runway. Note the amount of rudder steering required to turn the
plane. If you need to calm your nerves before the maiden fl ight,
bring the model back into the pits, unplug the battery and top it off.
Remember to takeoff into the wind. When you’re ready, point
the model straight down the runway and gradually advance the
throttle. Gain as much speed as your runway and fl ying site will
practically allow before gently applying up elevator, lifting the
model into the air. Be smooth on the elevator stick, allowing the
model to establish a gentle climb to a safe altitude before turning
into the traffi c pattern.
Flight
For reassurance and to keep an eye on other traffi c, it is a good
idea to have an assistant on the fl ight line with you. Assistants
are great for helping make trim adjustments on the transmitter if
excessive trim is required.
Take it easy with the Corsair for the fi rst few fl ights, gradually
getting acquainted with it as you gain confi dence. Adjust the
trims to maintain straight and level fl ight. After fl ying around for
a while, and while still at a safe altitude with plenty of battery
power remaining, practice slow fl ight and execute practice landing
approaches with the fl aps, checking how the model handles at
slower speeds. Add power to see how she climbs as well. Continue
to fl y around, executing various maneuvers and making mental
notes (or having your assistant write them down) of what trim
or C.G. changes may be required to fi ne tune the model so it
fl ies the way you like. Mind your battery power. We recommend
setting the timer on your transmitter or using a separate timer
with an alarm to alert you when it is time to land. Electric motors
are very reliable, but if you fl y until the battery cutoff on the ESC
stops the motor, it’s still a dead stick landing, the same as with
a glow engine.
Landing
To initiate a landing approach, lower the throttle while on the
downwind leg. Lower the landing gear and the fl aps. Adjust
the throttle to allow the nose of the plane to pitch downward
to gradually bleed off altitude. Continue to lose altitude, but
maintain airspeed by keeping the nose down as you turn into the
crosswind leg. Make your fi nal turn toward the runway (into the
wind) keeping the nose down to maintain airspeed and control.
Level the attitude when the plane reaches the runway threshold,
adjusting the throttle as needed to maintain your glide path and
airspeed. Use the throttle to adjust the plane’s altitude. It may
require a couple of landing attempts to get the “feel” of how the
plane slows down. If you are going to be long on the landing,
slowly increase the throttle, gently applying up elevator. When the
plane is a foot above the runway, smoothly increase up elevator
until the plane gently touches down.
One fi nal note about fl ying your Corsair. Have a goal or fl ight plan
in mind for every fl ight. This can be learning a new maneuver(s),
improving a maneuver(s) you already know, or learning how the
model behaves in certain conditions (such as on high or low rates).
This is not necessarily to improve your skills (though it is never a
bad idea!), but more importantly so you do not surprise yourself
13
by impulsively attempting a maneuver and suddenly fi nding that
you’ve run out of time, altitude or airspeed. Every maneuver should
be deliberate, not impulsive. For example, if you’re going to do
a loop, check your altitude, mind the wind direction (anticipating
rudder corrections that will be required to maintain heading),
remember to throttle back at the top, and make certain you are
on the desired rates (high/low rates). A fl ight plan greatly reduces
the chances of crashing your model just because of poor planning
and impulsive moves. Remember to think.
OPTIONAL 14.8V POWER SYSTEM
The modelers who are looking for hotter performance from their
Corsair can upgrade the battery to a 14.8V 2100mAh pack while
keeping the stock ESC and propeller. This will provide faster
airspeed and virtually unlimited vertical climb with only slightly
reduced fl ight time. The part number for the recommended
battery is:
❍FlightPower LiPo EONX Lite 4S 14.8V 2100mAh 25C
(FPWP4197)
In addition to the battery, you will also need a SuperTigre to
Deans® Ultra Plug® adapter:
❍SuperTigre Adapter Deans Ultra Male to SuperTigre
ESC (SUPM0040)
Although the optional FlightPower battery has a greater voltage
than the standard Flyzone 3S battery, the capacity is the same.
Because the increased voltage draws more current than the 3S
setup, the fl ight time will be reduced. We recommend setting your
fl ight timer for a conservative 3.5 minutes. This will allow time
to throttle back and circle around for land ing. This time can be
adjusted depending on your fl ying style. It’s also a great idea to use
a LiPo battery voltmeter (GPMM3205) to check the battery before
each fl ight (to make sure you haven’t inadvertently grabbed a
discharged battery) and to check the battery after each fl ight
to make sure you haven’t overdischarged your battery by fl ying
too long. A safe, conservative, minimum voltage is 3.65V- 3.7V
per cell right after a fl ight. Based on the post-fl ight voltage, adjust
your fl ight timer accordingly. The ESC has a built-in low voltage
cutoff of 3.2V per cell which will initiate a soft shutdown of power
to the motor when the cell voltages reach this level. Be sure to
allow enough time between fl ights for the motor to cool down
.

Transmitter Batteries
Four “AA” batteries are required to power the Tx (not included).
Non-rechargeable 1.5V alkaline, or 1.2V rechargeable nickel-
cadmium (NiCd) or nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) cells, can be
used. Do not mix cell types, or old and new cells, etc.
Have a ball! But always stay in control
and fl y in a safe manner.
GOOD LUCK AND GREAT FLYING!
To install the batteries, slide the battery door down. Insert the
cells as shown in the diagram, making sure to note proper
polarity for each cell. Close the battery door.
POWER SWITCH, LED, and LOW BATTERY ALARM
The red power LED should light when the power switch is
moved upwards to the “ON” position. The Tx should have
adequate power for fl ight when the LED is on constantly.
Anytime the LED begins to fl ash, accompanied by the
sounding of an audible tone, the Tx battery voltage has
dropped too low and operation of the model should NOT
be attempted!
WARNING! Never operate an R/C model
with weak Tx batteries! Reduced operational
range and/or possible loss of control of the
14
aircraft could result. Replace weak alkaline batteries,
or re-charge NiCd or NiMH batteries, before attempting
a fl ight!
If during a fl ight the Tx LED starts to fl ash, accompanied
by the sounding of audible tones, it’s a warning that the
Tx batteries have become weak and the aircraft should be
landed as soon as possible!
Adjustable Sticks
The length of both gimbal
sticks can be adjusted as
desired. Loosen the set
screw inside the center of the
stick with a 2mm hex wrench.
Rotate the stick end counter-
clockwise to lengthen the stick,
or clockwise to shorten the stick. Once the desired stick
length is found, tighten the set screw with the hex wrench.
Charge Jack
WARNING!! Do NOT attempt to recharge
alkaline batteries! The charge jack should
ONLY be used if rechargeable cells are used in the
transmitter.
The TTX600 includes a built-in charge jack for convenient
recharging of NiCd or NiMH batteries, and is compatible
with charge leads designed for Futaba® brand transmitters
(HCAP0101). This jack is NOT compatible with charge leads
for Hitec®, Airtronics®, JR® or Spektrum® radios.
To use the charge jack with optional rechargeable batteries,
fi rst remove the sticker that covers the charge jack on the
side of the Tx – making sure not to allow any object to be
inserted inside the jack itself. Next, insert the cells inside
the Tx’s battery compartment noting proper polarity. Make
sure the transmitter’s power switch is in the OFF position.
Connect a compatible charge lead to the jack and follow the
instructions included with the charger for charging of NiCd or
NiMH batteries that are rated at 4.8V.
Tactic’s optional TACP1000 rechargeable battery and wall
charger kit includes eight “AA” size rechargeable NiMH cells
and 110V AC wall charger, which is compatible with this Tx
and can be found at local retailers. Make sure to follow the
instructions included with the charge kit.
WARNING!! It’s not recommended to charge
batteries at greater than 1 amp through this
charge jack. Fast charging of NiCd and
NiMH batteries should ONLY be done with
chargers that are specifi cally designed to include the
peak-detection function which can automatically stop
charge when full charge is detected. Misuse, improper
charging, or over-charging of rechargeable cells can
result in damage to the cells that could include cell
rupture, explosion, or fi re!!
Trainer Function
The TTX600 Tx includes a built-in wireless trainer function
– no trainer cable required! This trainer system connects a
teacher’s Tactic Tx to a student’s Tactic Tx by wireless
connection. Tactic’s wireless trainer function is not compatible
with trainer systems in any other brand radios.
IMPORTANT! Before attempting to fl y the
airplane, it’s very important to make sure all
reversing switches and trim lever adjustments
on the student’s Tx match the settings on the
teacher’s Tx! Otherwise, the airplane could suddenly veer
off in an unwanted manner when the teacher’s trainer switch
is pressed. Proper matching of the student and teacher’s
Tx settings should ensure that no unexpected movements
occur when the trainer switch is pressed. This is especially
true of the throttle control!
1. The Tx that was used to set up the controls on the
aircraft must be used by the TEACHER.
2. The student must use a separate Tactic Tx with
wireless trainer function.
3. Place the teacher’s and student’s transmitters within
1 meter of each other, and make sure the throttle
stick for each Tx is set to idle.
4. Turn ON the power switch for the Tx being held by
the student.
5. Pull and hold the trainer switch on the teacher’s Tx,
and then turn ON the teacher’s Tx power switch.
6. The LED on the teacher’s Tx will fl ash 3 times to
indicate it has become bound with the student’s Tx.
7. The teacher can then release his trainer switch.
8. Once both transmitters are bound together, power
can be applied to the receiver to prepare for fl ight.
When the training session has ended, with the model on the
ground and all power removed from the model, place both
transmitters within 1 meter of each other and simply turn the
power switch for both transmitters to the OFF position. This
will terminate the wireless link between both transmitters. If
additional training will be performed again, return to step 1
above to re-establish the wireless link between the teacher
and student’s transmitters.
15
Failsafe Function
The included TR624 receiver has a failsafe feature which
engages in the event that the radio signal from the transmitter
somehow becomes interrupted. If radio contact is broken,
this safety feature causes the servos to automatically move
either to a certain position, or hold their last position to prevent
the model from moving in an erratic manner. Channels 1, 2,
4, 5, and 6 will enter a “hold” mode, whereby the servos will
lock in their last recognized position.
The servo connected to channel 3, normally being the throttle
control, will move to a pre-set position. The factory default
failsafe position for channel 3 is to move to 0% throttle.
Motor/prop movement should stop if the receiver loses signal
from the transmitter. The throttle servo’s failsafe position can
be manually re-set to any other position if desired, as follows:
IMPORTANT NOTE: Before manually resetting the
failsafe, make sure the servo reversing switches are in the
correct position for the application.
1. Apply power to the Tx and Rx.
2a. If using an ESC, do NOT arm the ESC. Do NOT
attempt to adjust the throttle’s failsafe position if the
ESC is armed.
2b. If using a gas or glow powered engine, do NOT
attempt to adjust the throttle’s failsafe position while
the engine is operating.
3. Move the Tx throttle stick to the desired position for
the throttle control to move if the Rx goes to failsafe.
4. Press and hold the “Bind” button on the receiver, and
the Rx’s LED should blink twice. Release the Bind
button, and the receiver’s LED should turn on (stop
fl ashing). The Tx and Rx should now be bound, with
the throttle failsafe in the new position as set above.
NOTE: If you’re using an ESC which has a signal loss
feature, the pre-set failsafe position is irrelevant as the
signal loss feature will cease the throttle operation if the
signal is lost.
System Check and Operation
WARNING! During all pre-fl ight preparations with the
aircraft on the ground, make sure the throttle stick remains
at the minimum position and do not stand the Tx upright on
the ground. Carefully lay the Tx on its back on the ground to
prevent it from falling over and possibly dislodging the throttle
stick from the low position which would create a safety
hazard. Make sure all devices are properly mounted inside
the model, and all wiring connections are solid to prevent
them from easily becoming dislodged during normal fl ight.
It’s best to check the system with the propeller removed from
the aircraft.
1. Once all connections are made, check the general
operation of the radio and all other components before
attempting a fl ight.
2. Move the Tx throttle stick to the minimum (idle) position.
3. Turn on the Tx, and then the Rx.
4. Make sure all controls are operating in the proper direction.
If any servo is turning in the wrong direction, change the
position of the reversing switch for that particular channel.
5. With both sticks at center position, move the trim levers
for the aileron, elevator, and rudder channels so each
respective control surface is perfectly aligned with the
main surface. For example: When the aileron trim lever is
in the center position, it’s best that the trailing edge of the
aileron is aligned with the trailing edge of the wing itself
(not above or below the wing’s trailing edge).
6. Make sure that movements of the throttle stick result in
an equal adjustment of the throttle in the model. Confi rm
that when the throttle stick is at maximum position the
electronic speed control gives the appropriate indications
(LED and/or audible indicators) for full forward fl ight. When
the throttle stick is at minimum position, the electronic
speed control should give the appropriate indications for
“off” or no motor rotation.
7. Anytime power is to be removed from the radio system,
it’s important to shut down power in the aircraft fi rst.
Otherwise, the aircraft could become out of control and
cause a safety hazard! Move the throttle stick and throttle
trim lever to minimum position to stop the glow engine
or shut down the ESC. Once the propeller has stopped
rotating, shut off the ON/OFF power switch in the model,
and disconnect the power battery from the ESC in electric
airplanes. Then turn off the power switch in the Tx.
