Congratulations on your purchase of the

Aerial Drop Module. This module will add

even more fun and excitement to your

X-Port equipped HobbyZone

aircraft

by allowing you to drop either streamer

bombs or a parachute jumper (both

included).

Here’s how it works:

Once the battery is plugged into the fuse-

lage, an electromagnet is used to hold

the bomb or parachute jumper in place

until you have reached the designated

area. When you’re ready, activate the

release mechanism.*

Before you attempt to use the ADM,

you must carefully read the following

instructions.

* Fighterbird and FB Commander -

to activate, pull down on left stick

(throttle) for one second, release

to neutral

ADM Attachment and Testing

•Plug the ADM into the X-port the side of

the fuselage.

• Clip the ADM into the slot on the bottom

of the fuselage (see the drawing below).

Make certain it is secured properly

or the ADM may slip off the fuselage

in flight, causing the aircraft to fly

awkwardly.

•Turn the transmitter on.

• Plug the battery into the airplane. Stay

clear of the propeller. Arm the motor.

• Attach magnet-to-magnet housing as

shown.

Note: Because the ADM uses an electro-

magnet, the battery pack needs to be

plugged in. If this is not done, the magnet

will not function.

Test the ADM by activating the release.*

SSeeccttiioonn 22::

Preparing the Streamer Bomb

or Parachute jumper

•Turn the transmitter on.

• Plug the battery into the airplane.

• Make certain the ADM is properly

secured to the fuselage. Arm the motor.

• Choose either the bomb or parachute

jumper, then carefully fold up as shown

(drawings A & B) and secure properly

inside the ADM.

Note: This is very important in order

to make sure that your bomb or para-

chute jumper will release upon command.

Note: Commander pilots may use the

power up sequence in the manual to

select EXPERT MODE if desired.

adm_instr_sht.2 3/24/03 Section 3: Success Tips 4:33 AM • Make certain you take into account the direction of the wind and how hard it is blowing. This is especially true when dropping the parachute, as the wind will carry it. • Practice with as little wind as possible to ensure the greatest success. • Select a wide open area in which to practice. • Make sure that any dirt is removed prior to dropping bomb or parachute again.
