GET THE MODEL READY TO FLY

Install and Operate the Motor Battery
(Brushless Only)
IMPORTANT: If using multiple battery packs that are
connected with an adapter, never charge the batteries together
through the adapter. Always charge each battery pack separately.
Charge the batteries, then read the following precautions on
how to connect multiple packs for fl ying the model:
BATTERY PRECAUTIONS: There are two ways to connect
multiple battery packs: In Series and in Parallel.
OKAY
❏ 1. Connecting batteries in "Series" means to connect
the +'s to the –'s and the –'s to the +'s. This combines the
batteries' Voltages, but the capacity remains the same.
These are three 11.1V, 3200mAh batteries. When joined
in Series, the result will be a 33.3V, 3200mAh battery.
OKAY
❏ 2. Connecting batteries in "Parallel" means to connect
the +'s to the +'s and the -'s to the -'s. This combines the
batteries' capacities, but the Voltage remains the same.
NEVER connect battery packs with different Voltages in
Parallel–only combine in Series. Otherwise, the batteries
will try to "equalize" with the larger one trying to "charge" the
smaller one, thus causing heat and likely a fi re.
Also NEVER connect battery packs with different capacities
in Series or in Parallel.

Check the Control Directions

❏
1. Turn on the transmitter, plug the battery into the ESC and
center the trims. Stay clear of the propeller! If necessary,
remove the servo arms from the servos and reposition them
so they are centered. Reinstall the screws that hold on the
servo arms.
❏
2. With the transmitter and receiver still on, check
all the control surfaces to see if they are centered. If
necessary, adjust the clevises on the pushrods to center
the control surfaces.
