Battery Installation and ESC Arming

Battery Selection

We recommend the E-ﬂite

3200mAh 11.1V 3S 30C Li-Po battery

(EFLB32003S30). If using a battery other than those listed, the battery should

be within the range of capacity, dimensions and weight of the E-ﬂite Li-Po

battery packs to ﬁt in the fuselage. Be sure the model balances at the recom-

mended CG.

1. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest settings. Power on the

Transmitter, then wait 5 seconds.

2. Push the canopy latch button (A) to release the canopy and remove.

3. For added security apply the loop side (soft side) of the optional hook and

loop tape (B) to the bottom of your battery and the hook side to the battery

compartment.

4. Install fully charged battery (C) on the front edge of the battery

compartment as shown and secure using the hook and loop straps (D).

5. Connect the battery to the ESC (the ESC is now armed).

6. Keep the aircraft immobile and away from wind or the system will

not initialize.

back of the canopy until the latch locks.
