Control Functions

The Super Cub MX comes nearly completely assembled. All the control surfaces have been 

pre-connected. Check that the direction of movement is correct for each of the control func-

tions. This is accomplished by first turning on your transmitter (make sure that your throttle 

stick is at the bottom position) and then plugging in your charged 1-cell flight battery. Leave the 

throttle stick in its off position. The motor will not be activated until the throttle stick is cycled 

from the bottom to the top and back to the bottom. Flip the PASS switch located on the right 

shoulder of the transmitter away from you, into the Assist Off position. In this position the con-

trol surfaces will only move when the sticks on the transmitter are moved. With the transmitter 

sticks in their neutral positions the control surfaces on the aircraft should be neutral.

Arming the Motor

The left stick on the transmitter controls the throttle function. When the transmitter is on and 

the aircraft flight battery is plugged in, the electronics will be active but the motor will not be 

armed. To arm the motor, cycle the throttle stick from the OFF to the ON position and then back 

to OFF. You will hear an arming tone and the next time that the throttle stick is raised the motor 

will start.  

In normal flight operations, always turn the transmitter on first and then power up the aircraft. 

Keep the aircraft still for 3-5 seconds to allow the gyro to properly calibrate before flying. Cycle 

the throttle OFF/ON/OFF to arm the motor. When finished flying always unplug the flight 

battery first and then turn off the transmitter.

Servo Reversing

If a control surface is moving in the wrong direction the servos operation will need to be re-

versed electronically. 

Follow these steps to reverse a servo:

•  Turn on the transmitter and plug the flight battery into the airplane.

•  Flip the PASS switch to No Assist (Switch toward rear of transmitter).

•  Do not arm the motor. 

•  Hold the control stick for the function that you want to reverse all the way till it stops.

•  Hold the control stick in place until you see the control surface change directions - within  

 

3 to 5 seconds.
