EN ® hank you for purchasing the exciting new E-flite flying wing, the C-Ray 180 PNP. Constructed of Tanddurable Z-Foam material, this agile little flying wing is designed to bounce back from mild impacts time time again. The perfect airplane for parks and small flying areas, the C-Ray airplane delivers snappy, ™ ™ fast and fun performance that intermediate through expert pilots will love.
EN Preflight Checklist 9 9 1. Charge the flight battery. 6. Adjust the center of gravity. 2. Install the flight battery in the aircraft (once it has been fully charged). 7. Perform a radio system Range Check. 3. Bind the aircraft to the transmitter. 8. Find a safe and open area. 4. Make sure the linkages move freely. 9. Plan flight appropriate for flying location 5. Perform the Control Direction Test with the transmitter. Battery Selection We recommend the E-flite 450mAh 2S 7.
EN Installing a Receiver Be sure you choose a receiver that uses JST: ZHR-3 micro connectors. We recommend the Spektrum™ AR6310 DSMX Nanolite 6-Channel Receiver (SPMAR6310). 1. Remove the canopy. 2. Install the receiver in the fuselage using the included double-sided servo tape. 3. Connect the left elevon (when facing the rear of the aircraft) servo connector to the elevator channel of the receiver. 4.
EN Installing the Flight Battery 1. Remove the canopy. 2. Center the included strip of hook and loop tape on the bottom of your battery. 3. Install the battery in the battery cavity, then press the battery onto the hook and loop strip (A). See the Adjusting the Center of Gravity instructions for more information. 4. Connect the fully charged flight battery to the ESC. See the Arming the ESC instructions for correct connection of the battery to the ESC. 5. Reinstall the canopy.
EN Arming the ESC 1 Arming the ESC also occurs after binding, but subsequent connection of a flight battery requires the following steps. If you accidentally connect the battery while the throttle is fully opened, a musical tone will sound and the ESC will not arm until the throttle is returned to the off position. Lower throttle and throttle trim to lowest settings. CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller. When armed, the motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle movement.
EN Transmitter and Model Setup Transmitter Setup Flying wings are controlled by elevons (the moveable surfaces on the C-Ray wing). Elevons combine aileron and elevator controls and mix them together electronically through the transmitter. Make sure both elevons move up and down (travel) the same amount. This model tracks well when the left and right elevon travel the same amount in response to the control stick. See the Control Centering instructions for centering the control surfaces.
EN Control Direction Test Bind your aircraft and transmitter before doing these tests. Move the controls on the transmitter to make sure the aircraft control surfaces move correctly and in the proper direction. Always keep throttle at the low position during testing.
EN Adjusting the Center of Gravity (CG) The recommended CG location is 18mm (0.71 inch) forward from the front edge of the servo casing. This CG location has been determined with the recommended 450mAh 2S 7.4V 30C Li-Po battery installed in the battery cavity. 18mm Applying Decals Customize your aircraft with decals. 1. Ensure the surface area is clean. 2. Cut and remove the desired decals from the decal sheet. 3. Press the decal on the aircraft in the desired location.
EN Flying Tips and Repairs Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft. We recommend flying your aircraft outside in no greater than moderate winds. Always avoid flying near houses, trees, wires and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid flying in areas where there are many people, such as busy parks, schoolyards or soccer fields. Range Check your Radio System After final assembly, range check the radio system with the aircraft.
EN Service of Power Components Disassembly CAUTION: Always disconnect the battery before handling or adjusting the propeller or motor. Failure to do so could result in personal injury. 1. Remove the canopy. C A B 2. Carefully remove the propeller screw (A), washer (B) and propeller (C). 3. Remove the propeller spacer setscrew (D) and propeller spacer (E) from the motor shaft. D E 4. The motor housing and shaft (F) are magnetically secured to the motor.
EN Troubleshooting Guide Problem Aircraft will not respond to throttle but responds to other controls Extra propeller noise or extra vibration Reduced flight time or aircraft underpowered Possible Cause Lower throttle stick and throttle trim to lowest setting Throttle channel is reversed Reverse throttle channel on transmitter Motor disconnected from ESC Servo travel set up is less than 100% Damaged propeller, prop shaft or motor Make sure motor is connected to the ESC Adjust servo travel to 100% or s
