Model Assembly
Horizontal Tail Installation
1. Connect both elevator servo connectors to the extensions in the fuselage
labeled ELEV. Feed the excess servo wire into the fuselage.
2. Press the horizontal tail onto the fuselage, ensuring the alignment tab on the
tail fi ts into the hole in the fuselage and no servo wires are pinched.
3. Insert two 3 x 16 mm screws through the horizontal surface and into the rear
holes in the fuselage. Do not over tighten the screws.

Select technology can be easily assigned to any open switch (2 or 3 position) on your
transmitter. With this feature, you have the fl exibility to enable or disable the technology while in fl ight.
IMPORTANT:
Before assigning your desired switch, ensure that the travel for that channel
is set at 100% in both directions and the aileron, elevator, rudder and throttle are all on high
rate with the travel at 100%. Turn throttle hold OFF if it is programmed in the transmitter.
CAUTION:
Keep all body parts well clear of the rotor, intakes and exhaust tube and
keep the aircraft securely restrained in case of accidental throttle activation.
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 or to deactivate the current switch if desired.
TIP:
SAFE Select is assignable on any unused Channels 5–9.

The SAFE Select switch must be assigned to the Flap switch (switch D)
BEFORE
proceeding
to the Transmitter Setup and should start from a blank (reset) model. Failure to assign the
SAFE switch prior to programming the other model functions may prevent the SAFE switch
from assigning correctly. Users of the DX6 and DX6e will have the SAFE Select functionality
linked to the fl aps. The values given in the Transmitter Setup table turn SAFE on when the
fl aps are fully deployed. SAFE is off when the fl aps are not fully deployed.
IMPORTANT:
When programming the Flap System function in the transmitter setup of the
DX6 and DX6e, set the Speed value to Norm. Adding any delay to the deployment of the
fl aps will also delay the activation of SAFE.
