Model Assembly Main Wing Installation 1. Slide the tube into the fuselage then install both wings over the wing tube and into the wing slot of the fuselage.
Model Assembly 2.Secure the both wings into the fuselage using the included 4 screws. (fig2) Note: The connectors on both sides should be attached precisely and firmly. HKM3.
Model Assembly Horizontal Stabilizer Installation: 1.Connect the elevator servo connectors to the servo extensions in the fuselage. 2.Insert the horizontal tail in the rear of the fuselage. Ensure the control horn faces down as shown. (fig3) 3.Secure the horizontal tail in place using the included screws. (fig4) fig3 HKM3.
Model Assembly Vertical Stabilizer Installation: 1.Connect the rudder servo connectors to the servo extensions in the fuselage and then put it in the slot. 2.Insert the vertical tail into the slots in the fuselage. (fig5) 3.Secure the vertical tail in place using the included screws. (fig6) fig5 HKM3.0*26 HKM3.
Battery and radio installation 1. Pull back on the release button and remove the battery hatch. 2. Apply the loop side (soft side) of the hook and loop tape to the bottom of the battery and the hook side to the battery tray. 3.Install the fully charged battery in the battery compartment with the power supply cable toward the nose end of the plane, and secure using the hook and loop straps. Note: you may need to relocate the battery position to achieve the correct CG for your model.
Get your model ready to fly Important ESC and model information 1. The ESC included with the model has a safe start. If the motor battery is connected to the ESC and the throttle stick is not in the low throttle or off position, the motor will not start until the throttle stick is moved to the low throttle or off position. Once the throttle stick is moved to the low throttle or off position, the motor will emit a series of beeps.
Check the control throws The suggested control throw setting for FMS MODEL are as follows (dual rate setting): 12 16 12 10 12 10 Tips: On first flight, fly the model in low rate. The first time you use high rates, be sure to fly at low to medium speeds. High rate, as listed, is only for EXTREME maneuvering.
Clevis Installation a. Pull the tube from the clevis to the linkage. b. Carefully spread the clevis, then insert the clevis pin into the desired hole in the control horn. c. Move the tube to hold the clevis on the control horn. a. d. b. e. c. f. Control Horn and Servo Arm Settings The table shows the factory settings for the control horns and servo arms. Fly the aircraft at the factory settings before making changes.
Check the C.G. (Center of Gravity) When balancing your model, adjust the motor battery as necessary so the model is level or slightly nose down. This is the correct balance point for your model. After the first flights, the CG position can be adjusted for your personal preference. 1. The recommended Center of Gravity (CG) location for your model is (150-160mm) from the leading edge of the main wing (as shown) with the battery pack installed. Mark the location of the CG on top of the wing. 2.
Before flying the model Find a suitable flying site Find a flying site clear of buildings, trees, power lines and other obstructions. Until you know how much area will be required and have mastered flying your plane in confined spaces, choose a site which is at least the size of two to three football fields - a flying field specifically for R/C planes is best. Never fly near people - especially children, who can wander unpredictably.
Flying your model Take off While applying power, slowly steer to keep the model straight. The model should accelerate quickly. As the model gains flight speed you will want to climb at a steady and even rate. It will climb out at a nice angle of attack (AOA). Flying Always choose a wide-open space for flying your plane. It is ideal for you to fly at a sanctioned flying field. If you are not flying at an approved site always avoid flying near houses, trees, wires and buildings.
Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause Solution Aircraft will not respond to the throttle but responds to other controls. - ESC is not armed. - Throttle channel is reversed. - Lower throttle stick and throttle trim to lowest settings. - Reverse throttle channel on transmitter. Extra propeller noise or extra vibration. - Damaged spinner, propeller, motor, or motor mount. - Loose propeller and spinner parts. - Propellor installed backwards. - Replace damaged parts.

ESC instruction Wires Connection: The electronic speed controller can be connected to the motor by soldering directly, or with high quality connectors. Always use new connectors, which should be soldered carefully to the cables and insulated with heat shrink tubes. The maximum length of the battery pack wires should be within 6 inches. Solder controller to the motor wires. Solder appropriate connectors to the battery wires. Insulate all solder connectors with heat shrink tubes.
Our ESC allows you to program parameters to fit your specific needs: 1. User programmable brake setting (we recommend using brake for only folding props applications) 2. User programmable battery type (LiPo or NiCd/NiMh) 3. User programmable low voltage cutoff setting 4. User programmable factory default setting restore 5. User programmable timing settings (to enhance ESC efficiency and smoothness) 6. User programmable soft acceleration start ups (for delicate gearbox and helicopter applications) 7.
5. Timing setup: Automatic / Low / High. * Automatic – ESC automatically determines the optimum motor timing * Low (7-22 deg) – Setting for most 2 pole motors. * High (22-30 deg)-setting for motors with 6 or more poles. In most cases, automatic timing works well for all types of motors. However for high efficiency we recommend the Low timing setting for 2 pole motors (general in-runners) and high timing for 6 poles and above (general outrunners). For higher speed, High timing can be set.
Using Your New ESC Improper polarity or short circuit will damage the ESC therefore it is your responsibility to double check all plugs for proper polarity and firm fit BEFORE connecting the battery pack. Alert Tones The ESC is equipped with audible alert tones to indicate abnormal conditions at power up. If the ESC can't enter into working mode after powering up, it indicates that you have not setup throttle calibration. 1.
Built-in Intelligent ESC Safety Functions 1. Over-heat protection: When the temperature of ESC exceeds 110 deg C, the ESC will reduce the output power to allow it too cool. 2. Lost Throttle signal protection: The ESC will automatically reduces output power to the motor when it detects a lost of throttle signal for 2 second, a subsequent loss of throttle signal beyond 2 seconds, will cause the ESC automatically to cut power to the motor.
●Never use ruptured or punctured battery cells. ●Never use battery packs that are known to overheat. ●Never short circuit battery or motor terminals. ●Always use proper insulation material for cable insulation. ●Always use proper cable connectors. ●Do not exceed the number of cells or servos specified by the ESC. Wrong battery polarity will damage the ESC and void the warranty. ●Install the ESC in a suitable location with adequate ventilation for cooling.
Motor doesn’t work after powering up the ESC. An alert tone with a single beeping tone followed by a short pause (* * * *) is emitted. The ESC is unable to detect the normal throttle signal from the receiver Check and verify that the ESC cable is connected to the Throttle channel on the receiver. Check the transmitter and receiver to verify that there is throttle signal output. (Connect a spare servo to verify throttle channel operation) Motor doesn’t work after powering up the ESC .
