Charging the Battery

Your F4U Corsair comes with a 1S 3.7V Li-Po
Battery Charger and 1S Li-Po battery. It is
important that you only charge with the
included charger, or the E- ite® Celectra™
4-port Charger (EFLC1004). The  ight battery
will be required to con rm proper aircraft
operation in future steps.

The Battery Charging Process

1. Charge only batteries that are cool to the touch and are not damaged. Look at the battery to
make sure it is not damaged e.g., swollen, bent, broken or punctured.

2. Remove the cover on the bottom of the charger and install four of the included AA batteries,
noting proper polarity. Replace the cover after the AA batteries are installed.

3. Slide the battery into the slot on the charger. The end cap of the battery is specifically designed
to allow the battery to fit into the slot one way (usually with the label on the battery facing
outward) to prevent reverse polarity connection. However, check for proper alignment and
polarity before proceeding to the next step.

4. Gently press the battery and its connector into the charge jack/connector located at the bottom
of the slot in the charger.

5. When you make the connection successfully, the LED on the charger turns solid red, indicating
charging has begun.

6. Charging a fully discharged (not over-discharged) 150mAh battery takes approximately 30–40
minutes. As the battery nears full charge, the LED begins to blink.

7. When the battery is fully charged, the LED blinks approximately every 20 seconds or goes out

8. Always unplug the battery from the charger immediately upon completion of charging.

CAUTION: Overcharging a battery can cause a fire.

Note: If the LED stays on when the battery is removed, the AA batteries in the charger

entirely.

are low.

CAUTION: Only use a charger speci cally designed to charge a Li-Po battery. Failure to do
so could result in  re causing injury or property damage.

CAUTION: Only use an E- ite 6V power supply (EFLC1005) with this charger. DO NOT
use a 12V power supply or property damage and injury could occur.

EN

Battery Warnings

The Battery Charger (EFLC1003) included with
the F4U Corsair has been designed to safely
charge the Li-Po battery.

CAUTION: All instructions and warnings

must be followed exactly. Mishandling of Li-Po
batteries can result in a  re, 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  re.

• 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

Low Voltage Cuto (LVC)

40–120º F. Do not store battery or model
in a car or direct sunlight. If stored in a
hot car, the battery can be damaged or
even catch  re.

• Always charge batteries away from
 ammable materials.

• NEVER USE AN Ni-Cd OR Ni-MH
CHARGER.
Failure to charge the battery with a
compatible charger may cause  re
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 outside safe
temperature range.

• Never charge damaged batteries.

When a Li-Po battery is discharged below
3V, it will not hold a charge. The Corsair ESC
protects the  ight battery from over-discharge

using Low Voltage Cuto (LVC). Before the
battery charge decreases too much, LVC

removes power supply from the motor. Power
to the motor quickly decreases and increases,
showing some battery power is reserved for
 ight control and safe landing.

When the motor power decreases then
increases, please land the aircraft immediately
and recharge the  ight battery.

Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery
from the aircraft after use to prevent trickle
discharge. Before storage, charge the Li-Po
battery to full capacity. During storage make
sure battery charge does not go below 3V.

NOTICE: Repeated  ying to LVC will damage
the battery.

RTF

Installing Transmitter Battery

Your F4U Corsair RTF transmitter
comes pre-bound to the aircraft,
so binding should not be
necessary. All that is needed to
begin  ying is installation of fully

2

charged batteries in the aircraft
and transmitter.

®

Transmitter and Receiver Binding

Binding is the process of programming the receiver of the control unit to recognize the GUID
(Globally Unique Identi er) code of a single speci c transmitter. You need to ‘bind’ your chosen
SpektrumTM DSM® technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation.

Note: For a list of compatible DSM® transmitters, please visit www.bindn y.com.
Note: When using a Futaba transmitter with a Spektrum DSM module, you will need to

reverse the throttle channel.

Binding Procedure Reference Table



1. Refer to your transmitter’s unique instructions for binding to a receiver.

2. Make sure the  ight battery is disconnected from the airplane.

3. Power o the transmitter.

4. Connect the  ight battery in the aircraft. The receiver LED will begin to
 ash (typically after 5 seconds).

5. Put your transmitter into bind mode. If using the transmitter that is
supplied with the RTF version, push the left control stick vertically into
the case until it clicks, while powering on the transmitter.

6. Make sure transmitter controls are neutral and throttle is in low position.

7. After 5 to 10 seconds, the receiver status LED will become solid,
indicating that the receiver is bound to the transmitter.
Note: If the LED does not go to a solid light, refer to Troubleshooting
Guide at back of manual.

Digital Trims

The ParkZone® 4-channel 2.4GHz DSM transmitter features digital trim buttons on all controls to
make  ne adjustments. The digital trims are used to  ne–tune the model’s  ight path when
in  ight.

Note: Before the  rst  ight, center the control surfaces mechanically (see Control Centering).
Note: When pressed down, trim buttons make a sound that increases or decreases in pitch at

each pressing. The middle or neutral trim position is heard as a middle tone in the pitch range of
the sounds. The end of the control range is sounded by a series of beeps.

Dual Rate Function

This transmitter’s dual rate feature lets the pilot change between high and low control rates for
the aileron, elevator, rudder.

• When powered on, this transmitter is automatically in high-rate mode.

• Change rate modes by pushing the right-hand control stick vertically into the case until it
clicks while the transmitter is powered on.

• High-rate mode is shown by the transmitter’s LED glowing solid red. In high-rate mode the
controls can reach their maximum values. This mode is typically preferred by experienced
pilots for maximum control authority.

• Low-rate mode is shown by the transmitter’s LED blinking continuously. In low-rate mode
the controls are reduced to approximately 70% of their maximum values. This mode is
typically preferred by (and best for)  rst-time, low-time and other pilots interested in
smoother and more easily controlled  ight.

The transmitter included with the F4U Corsair
is the same transmitter included in other Ultra
Micro RTF models. It also functions identically
to the transmitter included with the E- ite
mCX and mSR.

1. Be certain the battery is unplugged from
the aircraft and the transmitter is turned o .

2. Press and hold the digital trim button for
the surface you would like to reverse.

3. While holding the digital trim button, turn
the transmitter on.

Control Centering

Before  rst  ights, or in the event of an
accident, make sure the  ight control surfaces
are centered. Adjust linkages mechanically if
control surfaces are not centered.

Use of the transmitter trims may not correctly
center the aircraft control surfaces due to the
mechanical limits of linear servos.

1. Make sure control surfaces are neutral
when the transmitter controls and trims are
centered. Where possible, transmitter
sub-trim must be set to zero.

4. Hold the digital trim buttons down for
approximately 5 seconds until you hear a
tone, con rming the selection.

5. Connect the  ight battery and complete
the  ight control test. Con rm all surfaces
operate in the correct direction.

2. When needed, use a pair of pliers to
carefully bend the metal of the linkage
(see illustration).

3. Make the U-shape narrower to make the
connector shorter. Make the U-shape wider
to make the linkage longer.

Note: If using any other transmitter that has programmable features, do not use Sub-Trim
to adjust the center position of the servo, and never set Travel Adjust values above 100%.
Ultra Micro servos are unique in that they are calibrated to reach maximum travel at 100%.
Increasing the value above 100% will NOT result in more travel, but can cause the servo to
lock and will result in poor  ight characteristics or a crash.

Note: There are two aileron servos located on the underside of the wings.

EN

9

Control Rates

We recommend using a DSM aircraft trans­mitter capable of dual rates. Adjust according
to individual preferences after initial  ight.

It is normal for linear servos to make noise.
The noise is not an indication of a faulty servo.

To achieve the proper Low Rate settings
when using a programmable DSM aircraft
transmitter, set the low rate value to 70% for
aileron, elevator and rudder.

Settings for Control Horns

The illustration shows factory settings for
linkages on control horns. After  ying, if you
want more or less control throw, carefully
adjust linkage positions for desired control
response. (Picture not to scale.)

Installing Flight Battery

1. Connect fully charged  ight battery to the
aircraft, noting proper polarity.

High Rate Low Rate

Aileron 6mm up/down 4mm up/down
Elevator 4mm up/down 3mm up/down

Rudder 7mm up/down 5mm up/down

Note: All control surfaces are measured at the
widest point.

Flying Tips and Repairs

Flying

We recommend only  ying your F4U Corsair
in light winds. Always avoid  ying near hous­es, trees, wires and buildings. You should also
be careful to avoid  ying in areas where there
are many people, such as busy parks, school­yards, or soccer  elds. Consult local laws and
ordinances before choosing a location to  y
your aircraft.

Place the F4U Corsair in position for takeo
(facing into the wind if  ying outdoors).
Gradually increase the throttle to ¾ to full, and
steer with the rudder. Pull back gently with
the elevator and climb to check trim. Once
the trim is adjusted, begin exploring the  ight
envelope of the F4U Corsair.

Note: Due to the large propeller on the F4U
Corsair, it is possible to hit the prop on the
ground while landing. Make sure to  are
when landing and try to land as smoothly
as possible to minimize hitting the prop.
While this does not damage the airplane it is

possible to wear down the
tips of the propeller if  ying
from an abrasive surface
such as concrete or asphalt.

Failure to lower the throttle
stick and trim to the lowest
possible positions during a
crash could result in damage
to the ESC in the receiver
unit, which may require replacement.

Note: Crash damage is not covered under
warranty.

Always

decrease throttle at

propeller strike.

Repairs

Repair the Corsair using foam-compatible CA
glue or clear tape. Only use foam-compatible
CA glue, as other types of glue can damage
the foam. When parts are not repairable, see
the Replacement Parts List for ordering by
item number.

Note: For a listing of all replacement and
optional parts, refer to the list at the back of
this manual.
