The change in step 10 above, is very important and failing to do so, will make your Anakin Club Racer 

impossible  to  fly  as  the  controls  will  appear  to  operate  in  reverse.  (In  order  to  have  optimal  cable 

connections, the CC3D is  actually mounted in reverse with its front pointing to the rear) 

PLEASE DO NOT MODIFY THESE CC3D SETTINGS UNLESS YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH CC3D

TUNING AND YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE DOING. MISCONFIGURATION OF

THE CC3D CONTROLLER MAY CAUSE HARDWARE ISSUES WHICH CAN NOT BE REPAIRED

BY THE END USER AND WOULD ALSO VOID YOUR SKY-HERO WARRANTY

Exit (close down) the Open Pilot Software (If prompted to Save your configuration, then Click the Save

 button). Disconnect the battery from your Anakin Club Racer, disconnect the USB cable from the CC3D 

and your switch off your Radio Transmitter

10. 

Click  the  “Attitude”  tab  on  the  left  of  the 

OpenPilot  Screen,  and  make  sure you  put  “180” 

into the “Roll”  setting. Then Click the Save button.

 

11.  Click  on  the  Input  tab  on  the  left  and  adjust 

the “Min”, “Neutral” and Max values for “Chan 5” to 

match the screen below. Then Click the Save button

8. When the screen below appears, center your 

control sticks, then Click Next

9. The final step in the Wizard process is to click on 

the Arming Settings Tab at the top of the screen 

and decide on the method you would like to use 

“Arm” the Club Racer. 

The Arming process is designed to help avoid that your Club Racer’s motors start turning by accident.

NOTE: the Throttle stick must always be at its lowest position in order for the arming process to work.

In the previous screen shot “Pitch Forward” has been chosen as the arming method, this means that if 

your Transmitter is configured for Mode 2 use, then you must have the left stick in its lowest position 

and you push forward on the right stick for a few seconds.

You can also choose how long the Club Racer remains “Armed” by changing the “Arming Timeout” value 

from its default value of 30 seconds (make sure that you Save your settings if you change this value)
