Esc/Receiver Arming, Battery Installation And Center Of Gravity - Horizon Hobby Bind-N-Fly AS3X UMX A-10 Instruction Manual

ESC/Receiver Arming, Battery Installation and Center of Gravity

NOTICE: Always keep material or debris away
from the intake. When armed, the rotor will turn in
response to throttle movement and could ingest in
any loose objects.
Arming the ESC/receiver also occurs after binding
as previously described, but subsequent connection
of a flight battery requires the following steps.
1. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the
lowest settings on your transmitter.
2. Remove the battery/canopy hatch from the
fuselage and install a flight battery (A) all the
way to the back of the battery comportment.
Center of Gravity (CG)
The CG location is 34-36mm back from the leading
edge of the wing at the root. Balance the airplane
inverted on this recommended CG mark with all
landing gear installed. Adjust as needed by sliding
the battery forward or back.
3. Power on your transmitter, then
wait 5 seconds.
4. Connect the battery to the ESC, noting proper
polarity. Keep the plane immobile and away
from wind for 5 seconds to allow the AS3X
system to initialize.
A successful connection is indicated by:
– A series of tones
– A continuous LED
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po
battery from the ESC when not flying to eliminate
power supplied to the motor. The ESC does not
have an arming switch and will respond to any
transmitter input when a signal is present.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po
battery from the ESC when not flying to avoid
over-discharging the battery. Batteries discharged
to a voltage lower than the lowest approved
voltage may become damaged, resulting in loss of
performance and potential fire when batteries
are charged.
