Transmitter Setup
IMPORTANT: After you set up your model, always rebind the transmitter and
receiver to set the desired failsafe positions.
Program Your Transmitter
1. Start with a clean model memory slot.
2. Set the model type to “Airplane.”
3. Assign channel 5 (Gear) to a 2-position switch. In the table at right,
switch A is used.
4. Leave all other settings at the default values.
Switch A will now control the flight mode function.
• Switch position 0 = Launch (SAFE) Mode
• Switch position 1 = AS3X Mode
If, after flying the aircraft, more or less exponential or dual rate values
are desired, those may be adjusted up or down to suit your flying style.
