OTES
The power set “PARKMASTER 3D” is designed exclu-
sively for use in modelling applications. Incorrect use can
result in serious personal injury.
•
Read the instructions before initiation
•
Before every flight, check that the motor and propeller
are securely mounted
•
Remove all movable objects from the area around the
propeller before switching the motor on
•
Do not allow clothing or any of your extremities to get
close to the spinning propeller
•
Never start running the motor in your hand
•
Stop the motor immediately if you notice vibration.
Eliminate the cause of the vibration before running it
again; you may need to correct the balance of the pro-
peller
•
Make sure the power system is adequately cooled; do
not allow anything to obstruct the free circulation of air

“PARKMASTER

1. Screw the motor to the motor mount
Æ
ensure that the
motor is free to rotate. When deploying the motor
cables, check that they cannot make contact with the
spinning motor. Secure the motor leads with Velcro
tape or similar.
2. Fit the propeller driver and clamping ring on the motor
shaft.
3. Look at the propeller from the front (the face stating the
propeller size), and check whether the hole is bored
centrally, i.e. whether it lines up correctly with the
moulded-in guide hole on the underside. If this is not
the case, adjust the propeller bore so that the front hole
lines up with the rear one. CAUTION: don’t adjust or
drill out the rear guide hole.
4. Locate the retainer ring supplied in the set, and place it
in the rear guide hole. Fit the propeller on the driver,
and secure it with the spinner.

1. Connect the three wires attached to the speed control-
ler to the three wires attached to the motor; the order of
connection is unimportant.
2. Locate the UNI connector attached to the speed con-
troller, and connect it to your receiver.
3. Switch the transmitter on, and check that the throttle
control is at the “OFF” position.
4. Connect the flight battery to the speed controller.
5. Check the direction of rotation of the motor: it should
spin clockwise when viewed from the tail, looking for-
ward. If this is not the case, disconnect the flight battery
and swap over any two of the three motor wires.
6. Switch off the motor brake at the speed controller; the
method of doing this is described in the instructions
supplied with the controller.
