E-flite 4-Site F3P 250 ARF - Manual (Page 3)

3 E-flite 4-Site Assembly Manual
Recommended Radio Equipment
You will need a minimum 4-channel transmitter,
receiver, and three servos. You can also choose to
purchase a complete radio system. If you are using an
existing transmitter, just purchase the other required
equipment separately. We recommend the crystal-
free, interference-free Spektrum ™ DX6i 2.4GHz DSM ®
6-channel system. If using your own transmitter, we
recommend the 6.0 Gram Super Sub-Micro Digital
Programmable Servos from Spektrum.
If you own the Spektrum DX6i radio, just add the
AR6300 DSM2 ™ 6-channel receiver and three
Spektrum 6.0 Gram Super Sub-Micro Digital
Programmable Servos.

Note on Lithium Polymer Batteries
Lithium Polymer batteries are significantly
more volatile than alkaline or Ni-Cd/
Ni-MH batteries used in RC applications.
All manufacturer’s instructions and warnings
must be followed closely. Mishandling of
Li-Po batteries can result in fire. Always
follow the manufacturer’s instructions when
disposing of Lithium Polymer batteries.
During the course of building your model we suggest
that you use a soft base for the building surface.
Such things as a foam stand, large piece of bedding
foam or a thick bath towel will work well and help
protect the model from damage during assembly.
The most important part of building your
model is guaranteeing that it is straight when
completed. A flat work surface and square will
be the most important items during this build.
