Transmitter and Receiver Binding Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifi er) code of a single specifi c transmitter. You need to ‘bind’ your ™ ® ® chosen Spektrum DSM2 /DSMX technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation (Please visit www.bindnfl y.com for a complete list of compatible transmitters).
AS3X System Horizon Hobby has always made RC sport, scale and unique aircraft with heralded a new era of performance, and with the AR635 that performance is the kind of performance experts appreciate. First used in Blade ® ultra micro introduced for larger airplanes.
Installing Horizontal Tail 1. Slide the horizontal tail tube (A) into the hole in the rear of the fuselage. 2. Install the 2 piece (left and right) horizontal tail as shown. Ensure the control horn faces down. 3. Apply 8 pieces of tape (B) to the fuselage mounts (one on the top and bottom of each half of the horizontal tail).
® Installing SFG Technology Wing Fences 1. Carefully apply the included tape (A) to the wing fence base. 2. Align and install the left and right (marked L and R) top and bottom wing fences (B) into the respective wing slots (C). The bottom fences have integrated plastic skids, as shown.
Transmitter Setup IMPORTANT: The AR635 receiver’s default setting is for 3D mode using the For the best fl ight experience, we recommend fl ying your aircraft with the DX6i transmitter and above. If you choose to fl y using another transmitter, you Dual Rate switched to high rate.
Control Direction Test Move the controls on the transmitter to make sure the aircraft control Transmitter surfaces move correctly and in the proper direction. After performing Aircraft Reaction the Control Test, correctly set the failsafe. Make sure the transmitter command controls are at neutral and the throttle and throttle trim are in the low position, then rebind the model to your transmitter.

Once you are sure the aircraft responds cor- rectly, move the aircraft as shown to ensure the AS3X system moves the control surfaces in their proper direction.
Perform a range check with your radio system. We recommend fl ying your battery. It is not recommended to fl y the battery to LVC. ParkZone VisionAire aircraft outside in no greater than moderate winds. Always avoid fl ying near houses, trees, wires and buildings. You should also be careful Make sure to land into the wind.
Guidelines for Flying 3D Getting Started This aircraft and its AS3X system were designed together to help an intermedi- ate pilot apply standard fl ying skills to the demands of 3D fl ying. The calmer the wind conditions, the easier it is to execute maneuvers. Enable the 3D setting in the AS3X system using the assigned channel 5/AUX switch on your transmitter.
