Disassembly

1. Remove the screw (A) and spinner (B) from the collet (G).

2. Remove the spinner nut (C), propeller (D), backplate (E) and collet from the

motor shaft (H). You will need a tool to turn the spinner nut.

3. Remove 3 screws (I) from the cowling (J). Carefully remove the cowling

from the fuselage. Paint may keep the cowling attached to the fuselage.

4. Remove the 4 screws (K) from the motor mount (L) and the fuselage.

5. Disconnect the motor wires from the ESC wires.

6. Remove the 4 screws (M) and motor (N) from the motor mount.

Assembly

Assemble in reverse order.

• Correctly align and connect the motor wire colors with the ESC wires.

• The propeller size numbers (12 x 4) must face out from the motor for correct

propeller operation.

• A tool is required to tighten the lock nut on the collet.

Not all wiring shown.

Getting Started

This aircraft and its AS3X system were designed together to help an intermedi-

ate pilot apply standard ﬂ ying skills to the demands of 3D ﬂ ying. The calmer

the wind conditions, the easier it is to execute maneuvers.

Enable the 3D setting in the AS3X system using the assigned channel 5/AUX

switch on your transmitter. You may want to ﬂ y low airspeed, high rate maneu-

vers at an altitude that allows you space to escape into forward ﬂ ight. For your

ﬁ rst hover attempts, ﬂ y with the canopy toward you for easier orientation.

When you ﬂ y 3D, manage your throttle smoothly, but quickly respond to keep

your model in the air and oriented the direction you want. If desired, use

spotters to keep others from distracting you. Advanced 3D maneuvers always

seem to attract a curious audience.

Building Your Skills

Increasing your skills takes time. Practice regularly and try following a

plan for increasing your skills. Mastering one maneuver at a time may be

more beneﬁ cial than trying to learn everything all at once. Always stay

aware of your aircraft’s performance in different conditions and attitudes:

What response can you consistently get from your aircraft?

• Set up your aircraft for consistent response in all attitudes and ﬂ ight

conditions where you choose to ﬂ y. Not all challenges are due to the

equipment, just as not all challenges are due to the pilot’s skills.

• If you feel you reach a plateau in your skills, see if you have built the

right habits in the fundamentals of 3D ﬂ ying. Play to your strengths and

the strengths of your aircraft while minimizing reliance on areas of

weakness.

• Know yourself and your equipment well enough so you can conﬁ dently

take on greater challenges. Push yourself, but avoid pushing past your

aircraft’s performance envelope.

• Seek fun ways to safely share your enjoyment of 3D ﬂ ying.

When you feel you are ready, you might want to try to reduce the gain to

zero (turn off the AS3X system) and see how you do.

You may want to master

the Harrier ﬁ rst, an essential

maneuver used to enter and

exit other 3D maneuvers.

Advanced 3D Maneuvers

Harrier:

The aircraft ﬂ ies forward slowly in a nose high (ap-

proximately 45º) attitude.

Inverted

Harrier:

The inverted aircraft ﬂ ies forward slowly in a nose

high (approximately 45º) attitude.

Hover:

The aircraft nose is pointed up while the prop

thrust keeps the model in the air with little or no

change in altitude.

Torque Roll

The aircraft hovers with little or no change in

altitude while rotating left around its roll axis.

Harrier Roll:

The aircraft does a harrier while rotating around its

roll axis.

Waterfall:

The aircraft turns over completely (360 degrees)

in the pitch axis with very little forward motion or

change in altitude.

Inverted

Waterfall:

The inverted aircraft turns over completely (360

degrees) in the pitch axis with very little forward

motion or change in altitude.
