Battery Selection
We recommend the E-Flite® 2200mAh 3S 11.1V 30C LiPo battery
(EFLB22003S30), for standard operation. The ESC and motor system
are designed for both 3S and 4S LiPo batteries. If using a different
battery, the battery should be of similar capacity, dimensions and
weight of the E-Flite LiPo battery pack. Always be sure the model
balances at the recommended CG with the battery chosen.
1. Apply the loop side (soft side) of the hook and loop tape (
A
) to
the bottom of your battery.
2. Install a small piece of the Hook side of the hook and loop inside
the fuselage where the battery will sit. Don’t make this too big
or the battery will be diffi cult to remove.
3. Carefully lift the back of the canopy hatch (
B
) to remove.
4. Install the fully charged battery in the battery compartment as
shown. See the Adjusting the Center of Gravity instructions for
more information.
5. Make sure the fl ight battery is secured.
6. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest settings. Power
on the Transmitter, then wait 5 seconds.
7. Connect the battery to the ESC (
C
) (the ESC is now armed).
8. Keep the aircraft immobile and away from wind or the system
will not initialize.
The ESC will sound a series of tones. If the ESC sounds a continuous double beep after the fl ight battery is connected, recharge or replace
the battery.
9. Reinstall the canopy hatch.

Select Switch Designation
SAFE
®
Select technology can be easily assigned to any open switch
(two or three position) on the transmitter. With this feature, you now
have the fl exibility to switch the SAFE feature on and off while in fl ight.
IMPORTANT:
Before assigning your desired switch, ensure that the
travel for that channel is set at 100% in both direction.
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 fi ve times (one 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 if desired. If no switch
is assigned, SAFE will be active at all times.
TIP:
