ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS MAIN WING 1. Pass the supplied carbon fiber wing joiner through the fuselage 2. Install the right wing onto the fuselage and connect the wing servo lead. Then gently push the wing against the fuselage until it hits the magnet on the wing saddle. The servo lead should also be tucked nicely inside the groove in between the wing and the fuselage. The built-in magnet wing locking system on the wing saddle will hold the wing securely. 3. Repeat Step #2 for the left wing.
HORIZONTAL STABILIZER 1. Get the Left/Right stabilizer parts ready. Apply foam safe glue to the root of the stabilizer and install the left hand side stab onto the fuselage tail as shown. 2. Repeat the above steps for the right-hand side horizontal stabilizer. 3. View the model from the front, ensure the left and right horizontal stabilizer are installed correctly like the picture shown below. Check this frequently as the glue dries.
View the model once again from the front, the vertical fin should be perpendicular to the main wing. Check frequently as the glue dries.
C OF G POSITION The C of G is 48-53 mm from the wings leading edge. For first flights we recommend you use the forward measurement. Once you get used to the model you can then move it back, do not though exceed the most rearward measurement.
F-16 ORX FLIGHT STABILISATION SYSTEM FEATURES • Integrated with a 32bit MCU and a 6 axis digital gyro for ultra fast flight control response. • The ORX stabilisation device is tuned specifically to a particular model for the best flying performance. • Supports PWM, PPM and SBUS. Auto-detect. • Supports 3 different flight modes (Beginner, Intermediate and Expert) CHANNEL INPUT Flight mode (a 3-way toggle switch should be assigned for flight mode selection) PWM input: Ch 1. Aileron, Ch 2.
PUSHROD LINKAGES SETUP Connect the ORX via one of the PWM/PPM/SBUS inputs of your chosen receivers. Connect a 4S Li-Po battery pack and switch on your TX to prepare to set the throws of the control surfaces. Ensure the servo horns on all servo output shafts are perpendicular to servo cases, and all control surfaces are perfectly level. Reset all electronic trims on your TX to the centre position and remove any Dual Rates/End points settings, leave them at 100% and expo at 0%.
TX AND ORX STABILISATION DEVICE SETUP Note: If you wish to set up Expo/Dual rates on the elevator and aileron channels to meet your flying style, you must set them only under the Intermediate and Expert flight mode. SWITCH ON THE TX Place your F-16 50mm EDF on level ground. Plug in your battery flight pack and let it sit still, during this time the plane is in auto self-calibration mode. The LED light on the stabilization device will keep flashing rapidly for 3-6 secs, then the light will remain solid.
LED INDICATION STATUS • LED light off (No radio signal) • LED light turns solid (Beginner mode) • LED light flashes quickly (Intermediate mode) • LED light flashes slowly (Expert mode) To arm the stabilization system you need to open the throttle to a low setting for 1 or 2 seconds then close the throttle. Now pick the model up and check to see if it is in beginners mode or advanced mode. To do this move the nose up and down and watch the elevator servo movement.
RC CONTROL Roll Left: Move the aileron stick to the left, the left aileron should go up. Roll Right: Move the aileron stick to the right, the right aileron should go up. Pitch Up: Move the elevator stick down, the elevators should go up. Pitch Down: Move the elevator stick up, the elevators should go down.
GYRO CONTROL 1. You now need to check that the gyro is functioning correctly. 2. Move the gyro switch down into the "Training Mode", this is the switch in the fully down position. Now smartly roll the wings left and right, you should then see the ailerons moving in the opposite direction to the rolling moment. Then smartly pitch the nose of the plane up and down, you should then see the elevator servo moving the elevator in the opposite direction of the pitching.
TROUBLE SHOOTING Problem Cause Solution Batteries charged. not fully Charge the batteries. Install a charged battery. Check Transmitter battery low. Motor does not Motor not connected. connection between the ESC and motor. Replace motor. Consult adio manual and The motor is damaged. Receiver is not bound to Tx. go through bind procedure again. Hold model and move ESC in set-up mode. throttle to full position then back down to idle.
