AS3X

 System Delivers 

Breakthrough Performance 

Horizon Hobby has always made RC sport, scale 
and unique aircraft with the kind of performance 
experts appreciate. Now the exclusive Artificial 
Stability – 3 aXis (AS3X) system helps take 
performance expectations in ultra micro aircraft a 
quantum leap higher. 

Based on the successful use of MEMS sensor 
technology within the AS3X Stabilization System 
essential to Blade® ultra micro flybarless 

helicopters, the specifically tuned AS3X System 
for airplanes helps invisibly correct for turbulence, 
torque and tip stalls when encountered. 
Furthermore, the outstanding control agility delivers 
an ultra smooth, locked-in feel that obeys your 
every command with performance that’s natural 
feeling. It’s so gratifying, in fact, that it’s as though 
you’re the RC pilot of an expertly tuned, giant-scale 
model.

AS3X will change the way you’ll want to fly now and 
in the future. To see what we mean, go to

Charging Warnings

The included battery charger (EFLUC1007) has been 
designed to safely charge the Li-Po battery. 

CAUTION:

 All instructions and warnings must 

be followed exactly. Mishandling of Li-Po batteries 
can result in a fi re, personal injury, and/or property 
damage.
• By handling, charging or using the included Li-Po 

battery, you assume all risks associated with 
lithium batteries.

• If at any time the battery begins to balloon or 

swell, discontinue use immediately. If charging 
or discharging, discontinue and disconnect. 
Continuing to use, charge or discharge a battery 
that is ballooning or swelling can result in fi re.

• Always store the battery at room temperature in a 

dry area for best results.

• Always transport or temporarily store the battery 

in a temperature range of 40–120º F (4.44 - 
48.88º C). Do not store battery or aircraft in a car 
or direct sunlight. If stored in a hot car, the battery 
can be damaged or even catch fi re.

• Always charge batteries away from fl ammable 

materials.

• Always inspect the battery before charging and 

never charge damaged batteries.

• Always disconnect the battery after charging, and 

let the charger cool between charges.

• Always constantly monitor the temperature of the 

battery pack while charging.

• ONLY USE A CHARGER SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED 

TO CHARGE LI-PO BATTERIES. Failure to charge 
the battery with a compatible charger may cause 
fi re resulting in personal injury and/or 
property damage

• Never discharge Li-Po cells to below 3V 

under load.

• Never cover warning labels with hook and 

loop strips.

• Never leave charging batteries unattended.
• Never charge batteries outside 

recommended levels.

• Never attempt to dismantle or alter the charger.
• Never allow minors to charge battery packs.
• Never charge batteries in extremely hot or cold 

places (recommended between 40--120° F or 
4.44 - 48.88° C) or place in direct sunlight.
