Quick Start 

Follow these steps to complete your first-time installation 

  STEP 1 

  Before installing, make sure all the surfaces are well connected to the servos by the linkage rods.   

Install the receiver and bind it to your radio system in advance. 

  STEP 2 

  Switch on the transmitter and create a new model, select a single 4-channel fixed-wing model type. 

Assign a 3-position switch for the mode control. Assign a knob or slide lever for remote master gain 

control if needed. Keep all the sticks in the middle position (except throttle). 

  STEP 3 

  Now mount the controller on the airframe, connect the required channels between the receiver   

and the controller. 

  STEP 4 

  Power on the plane, the LED will turn WHITE for about 2 seconds then start to blink very rapidly,   

which means the gyro is calibrating, don’t move the plane and the sticks during this period. 

  STEP 5 

  After a successful initialization. Insert the program card and select the correct mounting orientation 

that you are using. Change the receiver type if you are using a S.Bus connection then reboot the   

controller to make the new setting take effect. 

  STEP 6 

  Switch to normal mode or gyro off mode. Adjust the center position for all servos, make your desired   

dual rate or expo settings if needed. Check the direction of movement of the servos by moving the 

sticks one by one. If the servo moves in an opposite direction, reverse it on your transmitter. 

  STEP 7 

  Switch to normal mode, check the gyro direction one by one, reverse it if the gyro reacts in a wrong   

direction. 

  STEP 8 

  Insert the program card again, assign the desired flight mode to the 3-position switch. If you need to   

change any other settings, do it now. 

  STEP 9 

  The installation is complete. It’s ready for your first flight. 

 

 

 

            When system is powered on, you must not move the plane and sticks on the transmitter until the 

            initialization is finished (about 4 seconds).
