WARNING:
While holding the aircraft during the range test, always
keep body parts and loose items away from the motor. Failure to do
so could cause personal injury.
Before each flying session, and especially with a new model, you should
perform a range check.
The included Spektrum DXS transmitter incorporates a range check mode to
reduce the output power of the transmitter. Follow the directions below to enter
range check mode for the DXS transmitter:
1. With the throttle stick and trim set to the lowest setting, power on the
transmitter for at least 5 seconds.
2. With the help of an assistant to hold the aircraft, connect the aircraft battery
to the ESC connector. Keep the aircraft immobile for 5 seconds.
3. Face the model, holding the transmitter in your normal flying position.
4. Press and hold the bind button (button A) and toggle the HI/LO rate switch
(switch F) up and down twice. The transmitter RGB LED will flash and the
alarm will sound, indicating the system is in range check mode. Do not
release the bind button until the range check is complete.
IMPORTANT:
You must hold the bind button through the entire range check
process. Releasing the button will exit range check mode.
5. With the model firmly restrained on the ground, stand approximately
30 paces away from the model.
TIP:
In some aircraft, when the model is placed on the ground, the
antenna(s) can be within inches of the ground. Close proximity of the
antenna(s) to the ground can reduce the effectiveness of the range check.
If you experience issues during the range check, restrain the model on a
non-conductive stand or table up to 2ft (60cm) above the ground, then range
check the system again.
6. Move the transmitter rudder, elevator, aileron and throttle controls to ensure
they operate smoothly at approximately 30 paces. If control issues exist, do
not attempt to fly. Refer to the Warranty and Service Contact Information table
at the end of the this manual to contact Horizon Hobby product support.
7. When the range check is successfully completed, release the bind button to
exit range check mode.
CAUTION:
Due to reduced output power of the transmitter, NEVER
attempt to fly while the transmitter is in range check mode. Loss of
control will occur.

Choose a Flying Field
Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft.
In order to have the most success and to protect your property and aircraft,
it is very important to select a place to fly that is very open. We recommend
consulting your local hobby shop for information on local flying fields and clubs.
For customers in the United States, visit the Academy of Model Aeronautics at
www.modelaircraft.org for more information on flying clubs.
Remember, this aircraft can reach significant speeds when flying and will cover
ground very quickly. Plan on flying in an area that gives you more space than
you think you need, especially during the initial flights.
The chosen flying site should:
• Have a minimum of 1300 feet (400m) of clear space in all directions.
• Be free of trees, buildings, cars, power lines or anything that could entangle
your aircraft or interfere with your line of sight.
• Be clear of people and pets.
