1. Connect the motor festo fitting to a section of 4mm tubing (included).
2. Route the tubing to the filter then to the shut off as shown.
3. Connect the other end of the shutoff with 4mm tubing to the output of the supertrap pump.
4. Plumb the UAT as shown and per the UAT instructions (UAT is not included)
5. Plumb the Fuel tank per the manufacturer instructions noting orientation above.
6. Connect Input of fuel pump to UAT fuel out fitting
7. Double check your fittings
8. Use 20 gauge stainless wire to secure tubing to non-festo connections
Startup Operation
Prior to running the turbine walk around the aircraft or motor stand and make sure that all power and data
connections are placed properly.
1. Turn the fuel valve to the on position
2. Turn on power to the receiver and observe GSU startup. The motor and GSU will sync up with an audible signal.
3. If this is the first startup, use the test menu and locate “test pump” function.
4. Prime the lines with fuel using the test pump function. The fuel line to the motor can be placed into a tank to
circulate fuel then connected to the motor when primed.
Failure to conduct this exercise will cause the motor not to run.
Note: Some users report running the pump for a few minutes with fuel circulating to “break in” the pump before
running the engine for the first time.
5. Turn on power to the Radio Controller. Note an audible sync signal when the radio is powered up. This lets the
user know that the motor is online with connection to the radio.
6. Raise the trim to 100% and observe ECU status “ready”
7. Raise the throttle stick to full then to min. This will initiate a start sequence.
8. The starter motor will begin to spin. The ECU will switch to ignition, then to preheat, then to ramp. As the motor
begins to ramp the pump begins to pump more and more aggressively. When the motor reaches idle speed the
ECU will train to the motor. For first time users, the ECU will switch first to “learn RC” then will indicate learn stick
high. Raise the throttle to full and allow the motor and ECU to train to full RPM. Please be sure to brace the aircraft
from moving now.
9. The ECU will now indicate learn Stick low.
10. Return the stick to low position. The motor will now switch to “running” and motor function is transferred to the
user.
Shutdown Procedure
Always observe proper shutdown and cooling of the turbine. Failure to observe proper shutdown by not properly
