EN Battery Charging Refer to the charging warnings. It is recommended to charge the battery while you inspect the aircraft. The flight battery will be required to confirm proper aircraft operation in future steps. CAUTION: The balance connector must be inserted into the correct port of your charger prior to charging. Purchase optional 12V adapters (HBZ6513 or HBZ4747) to power your charger more conveniently.

EN Transmitter Setup IMPORTANT: The AR635 receiver’s default setting is for Sport mode using the DX6i transmitter and above. If you choose to fly using another transmitter, you must refer to the “receiver manual” for instructions. A DSM2/DSMX four-channel (or better) transmitter with dual rates is required for flying this aircraft. The Spektrum™ DX4e, DX5e, DX6i, DX7s, DX8, DX9, DX10t, DX18 and JR® X9503, 11X or 12X transmitters may be used. The settings below are recommended starting settings.
EN Center of Gravity (CG) The CG location is 76mm back from the leading edge of the wing at the root. For first flights install the recommended flight battery all the way forward, secured by the strap. (as shown) Aircraft CG and weight is based on an E-flite 11.1V 1800mAh 30C battery (EFLB18003S30) installed. 76mm 3 inches back from the leading edge of the wing at the root.
EN AS3X Control Direction Test The AS3X system will not activate until the throttle stick or trim is increased for the first time after the flight battery is connected. Once the AS3X is active, the control surfaces may move rapidly on the aircraft. This is normal. AS3X will remain active until the battery is disconnected. Rudder Aileron Gain Adjustment This aircraft and receiver were rigorously tuned for various flight conditions. On rare occasions, you might still see oscillation.
EN Flying Tips NOTICE: If a crash is imminent, reduce the throttle and trim fully. Failure to do so could result in extra damage to the airframe, as well as damage to the ESC and motor. Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a flying location. Range Check your Radio System After final assembly, range check the radio system with the aircraft. Refer to your specific transmitter instruction manual. Oscillation NOTICE: Crash damage is not covered under warranty.
EN Motor Service Disassembly Assembly CAUTION: Always disconnect the flight battery from the aircraft before removing the propeller. 1. Remove the screw (A) and spinner (B) from the collet (C). 2. Remove the spinner nut (D), propeller (E), backplate (F) and collet from the motor shaft (H). You will need a tool to turn the spinner nut. 3. Remove the 2 screws (I) from the cowling (J). Carefully remove the cowling from the fuselage. Paint may keep the cowling attached to the fuselage. 4.
EN Troubleshooting Guide Problem Aircraft will not respond to throttle but responds to other controls Extra propeller noise or extra vibration Possible Cause Throttle not at lowest position or throttle trim too high Solution Reset controls with throttle stick and throttle trim at lowest setting Throttle servo travel is lower than 100% Make sure throttle servo travel is 100% or greater Throttle channel is reversed Motor disconnected from ESC Damaged propeller and spinner, collet or motor Reverse throt
