Preight

SAFE®Select Technology (BNF Basic)

The BNF Basic version of this airplane includes SAFE Select technology which can

offer an extra level of protection in ﬂight. Use the following instructions to make the

SAFE Select system active and assign it to a switch. When enabled, SAFE Select

prevents the airplane from banking or pitching past predetermined limits, and

automatic self-leveling keeps the airplane ﬂying in a straight and level attitude when

the aileron, elevator and rudder sticks are at neutral.

SAFE Select is enabled or disabled during the bind process. When the airplane is

bound with SAFE Select enabled, a switch can be assigned to toggle between SAFE

Select mode and AS3X mode. AS3X®technology remains active with no banking

limits or self leveling any time SAFE Select is disabled or OFF.

SAFE Select can be conﬁgured three ways;

• SAFE Select Off: Always in AS3X mode

• SAFE Select On with no switch assigned: Always in SAFE Select mode

• SAFE Select On with a switch assigned: Switch toggles between SAFE Select

mode and AS3X mode

1. Remove and inspect contents.

2. Read this instruction manual thoroughly.

3. Charge the ﬂight battery.

4. Setup Transmitter using transmitter setup chart.

5. Fully assemble the airplane.

6. Install the ﬂight battery in the aircraft (once it has been fully charged).

7. Check the Center of Gravity (CG).

8. Bind the aircraft to your transmitter.

9. Make sure linkages move freely.

10. Test the ﬂap and retract operation.

11. Perform the Control Direction Test with the transmitter.

12. Perform the AS3X Control Direction Test with the aircraft.

13. Adjust ﬂight controls and transmitter.

14. Perform a radio system Range Test.

15. Find a safe open area to ﬂy.

16. Plan ﬂight for ﬂying ﬁeld conditions.

Model Assembly

Vertical Stabilizer Installation

IMPORTANT: Care must be taken when inverting the fuselage.

2. Invert the fuselage and secure the stabilator rod in the fuselage with the

included M3x10mm counter sunk machine screw (B) (2mm hex driver

required). Tighten the screw until the screw head reaches the countersink of the

fuselage.

3. Ensure the screw captures the groove on the stabilator rod.

4. Insert the Z-bend into the 3rd hole from the output shaft of the servo arm. The

pushrod should be inserted from the outside of the arm and then snap the ball

link onto the ball mounted on the control horn.

5. Repeat the process for the other stabilizer half.

Ventral Fin Installation

1. Insert the mounting tab into the mounting bracket.

IMPORTANT: There is a left and right ventral ﬁn. Refer to the illustration for

proper angle of the installed ﬁns.

2. Slide the ventral ﬁns to the rear to lock the tabs in place.

Disassemble in reverse order.

Wing Installation

1. Slide the short large diameter wing tube (A) into the front hole in the fuselage.

2. Slide the long, small diameter wing tube (B) into the rear hole in the fuselage.

3. Slide each wing until it fully mates with the fuselage, paying close attention to

make sure the hands free connector aligns and engages.

4. Secure the wing halves into position from the bottom using the four included

M3x20mm counter sunk machine screws (2mm hex driver required).

Disassemble in reverse order.

cone in place.

Armament Installation

The dummy missile and drop tank stores may be installed for ﬂight or

removed as desired.
