    A560 will lean to left or roll over to left. When the left aileron moves down and the right up, left aileron gets pushed by airflow upward and the right aileron is pushed downward, then A560 will lean to right or roll over to right.

Note The direction mentioned above is relative to aircraft instead of the ground. That is, if the aircraft is reversed (body upside down), its above is the ground instead of the sky/ceiling.

  • Page 8: Usage Of A560 Units

    1.3.2 Transmitter & Receiver A560 RTF(Ready To Fly) is packed with RadioLink 8-channel transmitter T8S and mini receiver R8FM, with the stable control distance up to 2000 meters. (Maximum range tested in unobstructed areas free of interference and may vary depending on local regulations.) If it is the PNP version purchased, please refer to the manuals of the transmitter and receiver used for more details.

  • Page 9: Flight Controller Byme-A

    Channels on Byme-A flight controller: CH1-Aileron, CH2-Elevator, CH3-Throttle, CH4-Rudder, S.BUS/PPM-connect to receiver, SBUS/PPM signal supported. 1.3.4 Motor Motor installed on A560 is SZ 2206F 1500KV brushless motor. (Motor with higher KV value, means higher rotation speed and smaller torsion force, suits smaller propeller.) Usage of Motor: Make sure motors are installed tightly and rotate smoothly.

  • Page 10: Esc

    Another function of ESC is to lower the model voltage to 5V for receiver as the battery applied for A560 is 7.4V 2S LiPo Battery. Therefore, there are three wires of ESC respectively for battery, motor and receiver.

  • Page 11: Battery

    Make sure the transmitter and aircraft are fully charged.  When A560 flies for about 10 minutes, if the power of the aircraft drops when the throttle  is pushed, the battery voltage on the aircraft is insufficient. At this time, please return to the flight immediately to avoid the failure of the aircraft to return due to the insufficient power battery voltage and the over-discharge of the battery.

    2. Second, insert the balance port of the standard 2S lithium battery of A560 into the 2S battery balance port of the charger. Then the LED indicators turns red, which means it starts to charge the battery.

    Vertical Flight Mode can be changed with one switch and control as multicopter, pilots can make the fixed wing automatically fly with the vertical posture. Tutorial video can be checked via https://youtu.be/N2Gm4OUhu-c At this mode, A560 will keep vertical attitude automatically. The attitude algorithm of flight...

Below is the picture illustration with Mode 2 as example: When the aircraft is vertical, toggle the aileron joystick(CH1) to control the aircraft moving left or right.

  • Page 15: Stabilize Mode

    Different form manually control, Stabilize Mode with flight controller balancing, is suitable for beginners to practice level flight. The model attitude (inclination angles) is controlled by joysticks. When the joystick is back to central point, A560 will level. The max inclination angle is 70° for rolling while that for pitching is 45°.

  • Page 16: Gyro Mode

    At this more advanced mode, the integrated three-axis gyro assists to increase the stability. But A560 won’t level even the joystick is back to central point. The joystick control the rotation(angle speed) of the aircraft. That is, when rolling, pitching or rudder joystick is toggled,...

  • Page 17: Acrobat Mode

    Combination of Stabilize Mode and Gyro Mode makes it easy to realize various free styles such as rolling, rapid pitching, backward, side flight and spiral descending. A560 will level when the joystick is back to central point. If the joystick is toggled with small range, A560 will move to the corresponding directions.

    RadioLink Electronic Ltd www.radiolink.com （3）Rudder Phase Toggle the rudder joystick to left, rudder servo(vertical tail) turns to left; toggle the joystick to right, rudder servo(vertical tail) turns to right, meaning the rudder phase is correct. （4）Throttle Phase Toggle the throttle joystick to the bottom and the motor stays still. Gently push the throttle stick upward, motor moves faster and faster, meaning throttle servo correct.

  • Page 21: Flight Controller Phase

    After checking the right transmitter phase, it is necessary to check the flight controller phase of A560. (The transmitter phase must be checked first, and then flight controller phase.) Make sure to switch to STABILIZE MODE (eg. T8S CH7-DOWN, CH5-DOWN) to check flight controller phases are correct before each flight.

    Chapter 3 Flight Mode 3.1 Receiver Connection For A560 PNP version, transmitter and receiver needs to be installed. A560 is compatible to all transmitters that supports SBUS/PPM signal. 1. First, install the receiver on A560 aircraft. Make sure the receiver is switched to SBUS/PPM signal mode, and then connect the receiver to Byme-A flight controller.

    3.2 Transmitter Setup 3.2.1 Model Type Setup For A560 PNP version, model type needs to be set as fixed wing in the transmitter. Take AT9S Pro as example( same as AT10II/AT9S/AT10/AT9). Steps: Power on the transmitter - Long press Mode to enter BASIC MENU - Turn the Dial to MODEL TYPE - Press Push to enter the menu and turn Dial to select ACROBASIC - Long press Push for 1 second and a notice “ARE YOU SURE”pops out - Press Push again and a...

    Flight controller Byme-A needs to calibrate the attitudes/level to ensure the balance status. (1) It is advised to place the landing gear of A560 on the standard package, which is equivalent to raising the nose at an angle of about 20 degrees, and then operate the transmitter to calibrate the attitude.
