Transmitter Setup
The V-22 Osprey aircraft requires a transmitter with a minimum of six channels
and one open three-position switch.
Flight Modes are selected with channel 5 (GEAR).
Expo: After the fi rst few fl ights, adjust expo up or down in the transmitter to
better suit your fl ying style.
Tip: Set the throttle trim at a high idle during fl ight, and use a throttle cut switch
to shut the motors off. Shutting the motors off on this aircraft will cause the
model to descend rapidly in Multirotor Flight Mode. Keeping the motors turning
at the low throttle point will slow the descent rate when the throttle is reduced.
Refer to your transmitter manual for additional safety information.

DSM2®/DSMX® compatible
Bind Procedure (BNF)
1. Center all trims and move the throttle stick to the lowest position.
2. Place the aircraft on a level surface. Connect the fl ight battery to the fl ight
controller. The motors will produce two tones indicating power. After 10
seconds the orange LED on the receiver will fl ash indicating it is ready to bind.*
3. Take three steps away from the aircraft/receiver and then put your
transmitter in bind mode. Refer to your transmitter’s manual for specifi c
binding instructions.
4. The receiver is bound to the transmitter when the LED on the receiver
glows solid orange.
IMPORTANT: The fl ight controller will not arm the ESCs if the throttle is not
in the lowest position and the throttle trim at or below center.
IMPORTANT: After binding the receiver and transmitter for the fi rst time, the
transmitter must be powered on fi rst, before the aircraft. Failure to power
on the transmitter fi rst will cause the receiver to automatically go into bind
mode and requiring the transmitter and receiver to have to be re-bound.
*The receiver is located inside the fuselage. Remove the bottom hatch to see
the LED on the receiver.

Battery Selection
We recommend the E-fl ite® 800mAh 11.1V 3S 30C Li-Po battery
(EFLB8003SJ30). 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.
1. Lower the throttle to the lowest settings. Select the multirotor fl ight mode.
Power on the transmitter and wait approximately fi ve seconds.
2. Carefully lift the front of the battery hatch and pull forward to remove it.
3. Install the fully charged battery in the battery compartment as shown.
Secure using the hook and loop tape.
4. Connect the battery to the fl ight controller.
5. Keep the aircraft upright, immobile and away from wind or the system may
not initialize.
• The motor nacelles will rotate to the middle position briefl y and then to
the upright, Multirotor fl ight position, indicating the fl ight controller has
initialized and the ESCs are armed.
CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller. When armed, the
motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle movement.
6. Reinstall the battery hatch.
7. Refer to the Center of Gravity section to ensure the model balances at the
recommended CG.
EN
Center of Gravity (CG)
The CG location is within 25-30mm,
measured from the the leading edge of
the wing at the root, as shown in the
illustration.
NOTICE: The main motor nacelles must
be in the Airplane Flight Mode when
checking the center of gravity. Failure
to do so will give an incorrect center of
gravity and may cause a crash. Crash
damage is not covered under warranty.

Flight Conditions
Motors Start/Stop
Use the Throttle trim to keep the motors turning during fl ight at low throttle.
Move the throttle trim up to start the motors at the low throttle position. Move
the throttle trim down, or activate throttle cut to stop the motors after fl ight.
Stability Mode
Stability Mode limits the bank and pitch angle of the aircraft. The aircraft will
self-level if you release the transmitter sticks.
Acro Mode
Acro Mode removes the bank angle limits and will not self-level the aircraft
if you release the transmitter sticks. Acro Mode is intended for experienced
pilots who are comfortable fl ying the aircraft in any orientation.

Linkage Settings and Flight Trimming
The table to the right shows the factory settings for the control horns and
servo arms. Fly the aircraft at factory settings before making any changes to
the control linkages.
Trim
1. With the model sitting on the ground and the motors off, verify the motor
nacelles are positioned level in Airplane Mode with Acro. Make adjustments
to the length of the control linkages between the servo and the torque rod
control horn to make corrections.
2. Verify the control surfaces are centered. The trailing edge of the control
surfaces should be centered. With the aircraft in Airplane Flight Mode with Acro
make adjustments to the length of the control linkages between the servo and
control surfaces.
3. Fly the airplane and trim the aileron and elevator controls for level fl ight in
Airplane Flight Mode and Acro Mode at full power.
4. Land the model and place it on a level surface with the motors off. Switch
into Airplane Mode with Acro then switch from Acro Mode to Stability and
back to Acro to clear the gyro. Keep the model motionless in Airplane Mode
with Acro and note the trim position.
IMPORTANT: The control surfaces will respond to any movement when in
Airplane Flight Mode. The control surfaces will not respond to movement in
Multirotor Flight Mode.

Understanding the Primary Flight Controls
The V-22 Osprey aircraft has Flight Modes that make it capable of fl ying forward like an airplane or hovering like a multirotor. It is important to understand how the primary fl ight
controls function and how the aircraft reacts in both fl ight modes. Take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the controls prior to attempting your fi rst fl ight.

Flying Your Aircraft
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.
Just Before Flight
Once the fl ight control system is active, you will normally see the control
surfaces react to aircraft movement.
For your fi rst fl ights with the recommended battery pack (EFLB8003S30), set
your transmitter timer or a stopwatch to 4 minutes.
NOTICE: Never fl y the aircraft without fi rst setting and activating a timer.
After 4 minutes, land the aircraft. Adjust your timer for longer or shorter fl ights
depending on your preference and battery usage.
Takeoff
Place the aircraft on a fl at, level surface with the tail facing you. Set your
transmitter to Multirotor Flight Mode. Ramp up the throttle trim to keep the
propellers turning.
Check that the motor nacelles are in the fully upright position in Multirotor Flight
Mode before applying throttle. Gradually increase the throttle until the model is
approximately 2 ft. (600mm) off the ground. Avoid forcing the aircraft into the air.
It is normal for the aircraft to lift off tail fi rst and move forward as it lifts off.
Multirotor Flight
Try to hold the aircraft in one spot small with small corrections on the
transmitter control sticks. If fl ying in calm winds, the model should require
almost no corrective inputs. After moving the aileron/elevator stick and returning
it to center the model will level itself. The model may continue to move due to
inertia. Move the stick in the opposite direction to stop the movement.
After you become comfortable hovering, you can progress into fl ying the model
to different locations, keeping the tail pointed towards you at all times. You can
also ascend and descend using the throttle stick.
Once you are comfortable with these maneuvers, you can attempt fl ying with
the tail in different orientations. It is important to keep in mind that the fl ight
control inputs will rotate with the aircraft, so always try to picture the control
inputs relative to the nose of the aircraft.
NOTICE:Do not attempt to fl y backwards at a high rate of speed. While the
aircraft is capable of fl ying backwards while in Multirotor mode, the aircraft
becomes more unstable as backward speed increases.
Transitioning In Flight
To transition to Airplane Flight Mode from Multirotor Flight Mode change
the fl ight mode switch on your transmitter to an Airplane Flight Mode. The
throttle will increase slightly and the motor nacelles will rotate forward to the
airplane fl ight position. The control surfaces become active. It is normal to have
some slight oscillations in pitch as the aircraft transitions into Airplane Flight
Mode. While in Airplane Flight Mode the main motors use differential thrust to
provide yaw control and the tail motor does not run.
To transition to Multirotor Flight Mode from Airplane Flight Mode reduce
the airspeed, change the switches on your transmitter to select the Multirotor
Flight Mode for landing. The throttle will increase slightly and the motor
nacelles will rotate to the vertical position. The tail motor will power on and
the control surfaces will go to neutral. While in Multirotor Flight Mode the
control surfaces do not move. All pitch, roll and yaw control is accomplished by
differential thrust and angling of the motors.
NOTICE: Do not transition to Multirotor Flight Mode at low throttle or lower
the throttle immediately after transitioning to Multirotor Flight Mode. Doing
so will cause a rapid loss of altitude and possibly a crash.
EN
Airplane Flight
Fly the aircraft and trim it for level fl ight per the Flight Trimming section.
The V-22 Osprey fl ies in a similar manner to other fi xed-wing aircraft. It is capable
of a wide range of conventional fl ight maneuvers including loops and rolls. Avoid
negative push maneuvers, the V-22 Osprey is not intended for negative G maneuvers
and may enter an unpredictable spin with hard negative push maneuvers.
Landing
Transition the aircraft into Multirotor Flight Mode and bring it into a low hover.
Slowly lower the throttle to descend to a soft landing.
NOTICE: If a crash is imminent, activate the throttle cut feature. Failure to
do so could result in extra damage to the airframe, as well as damage to the
ESCs, motors and motor nacelles.
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)
The average fl ight time with a mixture of hovering and airplane fl ight using the
recommended fl ight battery is approximately 4 minutes.
The fl ight controller protects the fl ight battery from over-discharge using
Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). When the fl ight battery is drained to LVC the fl ight
controller will automatically transition the motors into Multirotor Flight Mode.
The remaining battery will last less than a minute, so land the aircraft as soon
as possible.
When the battery reaches LVC in Multirotor Flight Mode the motor power is
sharply reduced for an instant to warn the pilot the model has entered LVC.
In this fl ight condition the motors will slowly lose power until the ESCs cutoff.
If you notice the motors cut power for a brief moment, land immediately and
re-charge the fl ight battery.
After landing, disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the aircraft to prevent
trickle discharge. Charge your Li-Po battery to approximately 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 may 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 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.

TILT STOP
IMPORTANT:
The torque rod control arm and servo arm should remain approximately parallel
through the range of motion. If they are not parallel, remove the servo arm from
the servo, adjust the length of the tilt pushrod so the arms are parallel, and
reinstall the servo arm.
The servo should not be fi ghting to overdrive the tilt mechanism against the
tilt stop when in Airplane mode. If the tilt servos make extra noise or strain to
overdrive the tilt mechnism when in airplane mode, remove the pushrod, unthread the clevis 1/2 turn and try again.
