COMPACT 260 7.4 V motor set
The high-quality motor set is supplied completely factory-installed. The matching
BRUSHLESS CONTROL 18 BEC speed controller is factory-adjusted to suit the
V-
VENTURE
exactly, so no programming is required. Please note that the operating
instructions for the BRUSHLESS CONTROL 18 speed controller are supplied
separately in the pack.
The above cross-sectional view of the
V-VENTURE
shows the internal features of the
fuselage. Note that the motor mount can be withdrawn to the rear at any time if main-

Control surface travels
The control surface travels are as follows; they are set correctly at the factory:
Measured in each case at the trailing edge of the control surface and at the inboard
end: elevator about 10 mm up and down; ailerons about 28 mm up and 12 mm down.
Speed brake travel around 40 mm up. The two-position switch for the Dual Rate func-
tion at top right of the MX-10 transmitter can be used to reduce all the travels by
30%: move the toggle switch back to reduce travels. For the first few flights we
recommend activating the Dual Rate function, i.e. fly the model with reduced travels.
The speed brake function
Receiver software version 9910.RTF is required if you wish to use this function with
an MX-10 transmitter. To transfer the software you will need the interface adapters
Order No. 7168.6 and 7168.S.
The picture above shows the model with the speed brake function activated: both
ailerons are deflected up by about 40 mm, and at the same time about 10% down-
elevator is mixed in. The glide angle becomes much steeper, making accurate spot-
