Batteries
:
4.8 V, 600 mAh batteries are typical in sport model aircraft, however, GSRC prefers
to use 6.0 V, 1100 mAh batteries for higher torque and greater servo actuation speed. The 6.0 V battery is
heavier by one “cell” (5- vs 4-cells), but GSRC believes in highly aerobatic aircraft such as the CrossFire,
you will be more satisfied with the 6.0 V performance. Also the higher voltage “tends” to provide for better
noise immunity in the receiver, and the 1100 mAh tend to provide for more flying time than a 600 mAh.
- OraCover © Heat-Shrink Covering:
OraCover is absolutely the best heat-shrink
covering available of its type. It is durable, repairable, replaceable and re-shrinkable as needed. It is
normal for the covering to show wrinkling from time to time . As temperature and humidity changes, the
balsa will expand and contract. This is natural and the covering may wrinkle. Simply re-shrink the covering
using a covering heat gun. Heat guns are available from your local hobby dealer.
-
Radios (
Tx & Rx): All of the name brand radios are good, and GSRC prefers you use the radio
you are most accustomed to and comfortable with. The CrossFire will require four Channels minimum and
possibly a 5-channels if you split your ailerons for flaperon capability. It is a good practice to keep the
Transmitter and Receiver to the same brand; however, servos of a different brand are a generally accepted
practice and should cause no problems. Always check your radio manufacturer’s recommendations. Be
aware that different radio receivers may require a specific servo plug-type to be both mechanically and
electrically compatible.

Conventions:
When the manual refers to left and right, it is in reference to your left or right as
viewed from the fuselage tail looking forward or as if you were sitting in the cockpit. Generally, when
“Increasing a Function” of any entity (such as battery switch, a servo, etc.), the following conventions should
be observed:
- Forward
- Clockwise
- To the right
- Up
Doing the opposite of the above, is considered “Decreasing the Function”
