Control Surface Centering
After assembly and transmitter setup, confirm that the control surfaces are
centered. If the control surfaces are not centered, mechanically center the control
surfaces by adjusting the linkages.
If adjustment is required, turn the ball link on the linkage to change the length of
the linkage between the servo arm and the control horn.
After binding a transmitter to the aircraft receiver, set the trims and sub-trims to
0, then adjust the ball links to center the control surfaces.
• Turn the linkage
clockwise or
counterclockwise until
the control surface is
centered.
• Attach the linkage
to the servo arm or
control horn after
adjustment.
Control Horn and Servo Arm Settings
The table to the right shows the factory settings for the control horns and servo
arms. Fly the aircraft at factory settings before making changes.
NOTICE:
If control throws are changed from the factory settings, the AR636
gain values may need to be adjusted. Refer to the Spektrum AR636 manual
for adjustment of gain values.
After flying, you may choose to adjust the linkage positions for the desired
control response. See the table to the right.

Select Switch Designation (BNF only)
SAFE
®
Select technology can be easily assigned to any open switch (2 or 3
position) on your transmitter. With this new feature, you now have the flexibility
to enable or disable the technology while in flight.
IMPORTANT:
Before assigning your desired switch, ensure that the travel for
that channel is set at 100% in both direction.
Assigning a switch
1. Bind the aircraft correctly to activate SAFE Select. This will allow the system
to be assigned to a switch.
2. Hold both transmitter sticks to the inside bottom
corners and toggle the desired switch 5 times (1
toggle = full up and down) to assign that switch. The
control surfaces of the aircraft will move, indicating
the switch has been selected.
Repeat the process to assign a different switch if desired.
NOTICE:
SAFE Select is assignable on any unused Channels 5–9.
