EN Thank you for purchasing the E-flite® UMX™ Sbach® 342 3D. Designed by world-class competition pilot and designer Mike McConville, this 4-channel, scale aerobatic monoplane is going to thrill you, especially if your interest is flying extreme precision aerobatics and 3D maneuvers in a park or a large backyard. Its 2S Li-Po, 2500Kv brushless power system is one of the most powerful ever developed for an aircraft this small.
EN AS3X Stabilization Delivers Breakthrough Performance Horizon Hobby has always made RC sport, scale and unique aircraft with the kind of performance experts appreciate. Now the exclusive Artificial Stability – 3 aXis (AS3X) system helps take performance expectations in ultra micro aircraft a quantum leap higher. Furthermore, the outstanding control agility delivers an ultra smooth, locked-in feel that obeys your every command with performance that’s natural feeling.
EN Transmitter and Receiver Binding Binding is the process of programming the receiver of the control unit to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. You need to ‘bind’ your chosen SpektrumTM DSM2®/ DSMX® technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation. Any JR® or Spektrum DSM2/DSMX transmitter can bind to the SPMAS6410NBL receiver.
EN Arming the ESC Arming the ESC also occurs after binding as previously described, but subsequent connection of a flight battery requires the steps below. 1 Lower throttle and throttle trim to lowest settings. Power on the Transmitter, then wait 5 seconds. 2 3 Install the flight battery and connect it to the ESC. Keep the aircraft immobile on its wheels away from wind for five seconds.
EN Settings for Control Horns The illustration shows linkage positions chosen for the most balanced aerobatic response. Linkage connections on the control horns directly affect aircraft response. Aileron Elevator Rudder CAUTION: When these are incorrectly connected for the pilot’s skill level, unexpected aircraft response to controls can result. This can cause damage to the aircraft and personal injury.
EN Optional – Installation of Side Force Generators (SFGs) Side Force Generators™ add side force in all flight attitudes, increase rudder authority and make a variety of acrobatics possible. The two SFG sets included with the aircraft provide different amounts of increased rudder control. We recommend first flying the aircraft without the SFGs, then with each set of SFGs to determine what is best for your flying style.
EN Additional Safety Precautions and Warnings As the user of this product, you are solely responsible for operating in a manner that does not endanger yourself and others or result in damage to the product or the property of others. • Always keep a safe distance in all direction around your model to avoid collisions or injury. • This model is controlled by a radio signal subject to interference from many sources outside your control. Interference can cause momentary loss of control.
EN Service of Power Components Disassembly CAUTION: DO NOT handle propeller parts while the flight battery is connected. Personal injury could result. Propeller 1. Remove the battery hatch by gripping the front of the hatch, then pulling it up and away from the fuselage. A B 2. Remove the spinner (A) from the propeller (B). Since the propeller and spinner are glued together, glue residue will need to be cleaned from the spinner or propeller when these parts are used again. D C 3.
