proceed to the next step of the checklist.

• If the status LED keeps flashing, you do not have a positive RF link between

the transmitter and receiver. Check to be sure that the transmitter has been

powered on and that the LED indicator on the transmitter is glowing solid

red. If the transmitter is powered on and functioning properly, disconnect

the flight battery from the receiver unit, then reconnect it. Now the receiver

unit should initialize and arm properly.

Note: In the event you inadvertently enter Bind Mode, the LED on the

AR6400L will flash red continuously. If this occurs, cycle the flight

battery while the transmitter is on (if previously bound). If your

receiver unit will not initialize and arm after following the guidelines as

listed above, call the Horizon Support Team at 1-877-504-0233.

• Once you have placed the airplane in a safe area, free of obstructions, and

are clear of the propeller, you can safely begin to power up the model to

check for proper operation of the motor.

• Advance the throttle stick upward slowly, just until the propeller begins

to spin. DO NOT attempt to fly the airplane at this time. Note the

direction the propeller spins. If viewed from the front of the airplane the

propeller will spin counterclockwise. If it is spinning backwards, disconnect

the battery and reverse the polarity of the motor’s input power leads.

Choosing a Flying Area

When you are ready for your first flight, you will want to select a relatively open

indoor area that is free of people and obstructions. And while it is possible for

experienced 3D pilots to fly the Ultra-Micro 4-Site in smaller indoor areas with great

success due to its size and controllability, we strongly recommend an area with at

least 30 feet by 60 feet of floor space and no less than 10-foot ceilings when making

your first few flights.

Once you have properly trimmed your airplane and become familiar with its handling

and capabilities, you will be able to fly in other smaller, less open areas.

Note: The Ultra-Micro 4-Site is designed to be flown INDOORS and can be

successfully flown OUTDOORS by an EXPERIENCED PILOT with CALM

WIND CONDITIONS UP TO 5 MPH.
