Disassembly
CAUTION:
DO NOT handle the propeller
while the fl ight battery is connected to the
ESC. Personal injury could result.
Disconnect the battery.
1. Remove the four screws from the bottom of the
airframe holding the motor cover in place.
2. Disconnect the motor wire connector from the
ESC/receiver connector.
3. Remove the screw from the motor mount, and
remove the motor.
4. Remove the three screws holding the spinner
and folding propeller assembly on the motor.
Assembly
Assemble in reverse order.
• Ensure the folding propeller assembly and the
motor is secured in the motor mount.
• Connect the motor wire connector to the
ESC/receiver.
• Ensure the screws holding the motor cover/motor
mount assembly are secured to the airframe.
The MLP6 Transmitter included with the RTF combo is low
powered and has a limited range of approximately 100 meters,
depending on the environment.
Range may be affected by;
• Pointing the transmitter antenna at the model
• Sitting while fl ying and having the antenna close to the ground
• Flying behind your body
• Flying low, far, or behind objects
• RF noise such as congested areas inundated with WiFi
• Operating near metal structures
• Rain, mist or fog
For optimal control link performance operate the aircraft in an
open area away from large metal structures, stand while fl ying
and avoid pointing the transmitter antenna directly at the model.
If the model stops responding to the controls, raise the transmitter
over your head with the antenna pointed vertical to optimize the
antenna location, and turn the model around when control is regained.
CAUTION:
Do not point the transmitter antenna at the model. The area off the tip of the antenna is
where the signal is the weakest (the null). If the transmitter antenna is pointed at the aircraft, range will
be greatly shortened.
