Final Assembly

Required Parts

• Assembled airframe

• Motor battery

1. Install the motor battery into the fuselage. Use the hook

and loop strap to keep it from falling out during flight.

Note: When using our recommended Brushed Motor

Power System, you MUST use a separate BEC or receiver

battery pack to power the radio gear if using more

than 3 servos.

Also, you must be sure to disable the BEC of the ESC by

removing the positive lead from the servo connector that

plugs into the throttle channel of the receiver. Failure to

do so when using a separate BEC or receiver battery

pack may result in ESC failure and a crash.
