CAUTION:All instructions and warnings must be followed exactly.
Mishandling of Li-Po batteries can result in a fire,personal injury,

and/or property damage.

• By handling,charging or using the included Li-Po battery,you assume all
risks associated with lithium batteries.

• If at any time the battery begins to balloon or swell, discontinue use

immediately. If charging or discharging, discontinue and disconnect.
Continuing to use, charge or discharge a battery that is ballooning or
swelling can result in a fire.

• Always store the battery at room temperature in a dry area for best results.

• Always transport or temporarily store the battery in a temperature range of

40-120º F(5-49º C).Do not store battery or aircraft in a car or direct sun­light.If stored in a hot car,the battery can be damaged or even catch fire.

• Always charge batteries away from flammable materials.

• Always inspect the battery before charging and never charge dead or dam-

aged batteries.

• Always disconnect the battery after charging,and let the charger cool
between charges.

• Always consistently monitor the temperature of the battery pack while
charging.

• ONLY USE A CHARGER SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO CHARGE LI-PO

BATTERIES.Failure to charge the battery with a compatible charger

may cause fire resulting in personal injury and/or property damage.

• Never discharge Li-Po cells to below 3V under load.

• Never cover warning labels with hook and loop strips.

• Never leave charging batteries unattended.

• Never charge batteries over recommended levels.

• Never attempt to dismantle or alter the charger.

• Never allow minors under the age of 14 to charge battery packs.

• Never charge batteries in extremely hot or cold places (recommended

between 40-120°F or 5-49xC)or place in direct sunlight.

ATTENTION:

EDF jets require Li-PO batteries with a high discharge rating (Crating) for increased
safety and optimal performance. We recommend using Li-Po batteries with a minimum
of 40C or above. For 8S systems that require two batteries in series, the C rating must
remain the same on both batteries for better consistency and performance. Below is the
power output references:

6S-5000mAh 40C 120A or above = 8.8lb / 4kg thrust

2.1.Insert the wing spar into one of the main wings. Push the wingspar into the wing
until its center point has reached the edge of the wing as shown in the illustration.
Now install the wing with the spar onto the fuselage wing mounting panels and secure
it with the provided wing mounting screws. After finishing this procedure, install the
second main wing as required.

ASSEMBLY

Cockpit can be removed by pressing

the sides and lifting up towards the front end.

Install the main wing while
ensuring that it is secure so that it
can withstand the plug of the
fuselage. Otherwise, poor contact
will exist.

4.Glue the tail exhaust nozzle piece as shown below. First, apply the foam-safe adhesive
within the inner slotted area of the rear exhaust exit as shown in the first figure. Then,
install the clear compressing plastic air-duct where the glue was applied on the slotted
area as shown in the second figure. Apply foam-safe adhesive on the exhaust nozzle as
shown in the third figure and install.

3.Install the ventral fin mounts with the glue as shown (omit if pre-installed). Repeat
this step for the other side. After the ventral fin mounts are glued, install the ventral
fins with the provided screws.

5.Install the vertical stabilizer into the mounting area at the end of the fuselage with
the provided screws as shown in below.

6.Glue the J-10 Pitot Tube on the nose cone as shown below. After, apply adhesive

to the inner edges of the nose cone and proceed to install it on the nose of the
aircraft.

7.Glue the fuel filler pipe onto the right side of the fuselage as shown below. After, turn
over the model and glue the antennas in their respective locations on the fuselage.

The J-10 PNP version, as produced by HSD Ltd., can be equipped with fixed landing gears to
meet the preferences of certain pilots. When the fixed landing gears are used, the overall all-up
weight (AUW) of the aircraft is reduced by the removal of the e-retract system. The fixed landing
gears will also be sturdy enough to take-off from grass.

Throttle range setting

(Throttle range should be reset whenever a new transmitter is being used)

Step 1:Switch on the transmitter and move the throttle stick to 100%

(wide-open throttle).

Step 2:Connect the battery pack to the ESC, and wait about 2 seconds.

Step 3:A 'beep-beep' tone will emit, this means the highest point in the

throttle control range has been confirmed.

Step 4:After the 'beep-beep' tone is emitted, move the throttle stick
back down to the lowest position (0%). You will hear a set of
initialization beeps that register the number of cells in the battery.

Step 5:A final, long beep tone will be emitted meaning that the lowest
point of the throttle range has been confirmed. This means the throttle
control has been initialized properly and is ready for use.
