Out of the box, the AS3Xtra comes standard with 3
fl ight modes, shown in bold in the chart to the right.

A transmitter with a 2-position channel 5 switch will
only allow the use of position 0 or position 2 fl ight
modes.

If possible (refer to your transmitter manual) assign
channel 5 in your transmitter to a 3 position switch
to operate all 3 fl ight modes. You can modify the
fl ight modes available using the directions below.

NOTICE: Fast forward flight in the Hover and
Torque Roll Assist modes may cause oscillation
and damage to the aircraft.

IMPORTANT: Your transmitter must be bound to the
receiver before changing fl ight mode programming.

1. Ensure all servo reversing is set to normal in

the transmitter.

2. Hold the transmitter sticks as shown, then

connect the flight battery. The assigned flight
mode switch does not need to be in a
particular position.

3. The receiver LED will flash 3 times to confirm

that the flight mode has been changed.

4. After a switch position change, fully lower the

throttle, then disconnect the flight battery. The
receiver stores the new flight mode for future
flights.

5. Repeat this process to change other flight

modes, or reset all settings to default using the
chart provided.

NOTICE: Always launch the aircraft in General Flight
or Standard AS3X

®

mode or damage to the aircraft

may result.

IMPORTANT: When the throttle is fully lowered for
1–2 seconds, the aircraft will reset to Standard
AS3X mode until the throttle is raised again. This is
normal. Standard AS3X mode allows you to launch
the model again without a control input being held.
