For your convenience, the ZX10 radio included with

your Spitfire Mk IIB has been pre-programmed for use

with the included battery (9-cell 10.8V Ni-MH). If you

plan on only flying with the included battery pack, no

changes will need to be made. Simply proceed through

the Boot-Up process and you’re ready to fly. Proceed to

the Teach-In process only if you plan to use an optional

battery, such as an (2000mAh +) 11.1V Li-Po. The

voltage cutoff must be changed to prevent damage to

your Li-Po battery.

Boot-Up

1. With the battery disconnected from the receiver,

and the transmitter turned on, move the throttle

slide to the idle position. Leave it in this position

and then connect the battery to the receiver.

2. Wait for 2 seconds, and the motor will give one

long tone to indicate the receiver is connected.

3. After the long tone, you will hear a series of short

tones to indicate the current cutoff setting.

1 beep = 5.6V (7-cell Ni-MH )

2 beep = 6.0V (2-cell Li-Po)

3 beep = 9.0V (3-cell Li-Po)

7 beep = 70% Smart Cut soft cutoff

4. The receiver has now armed the motor, and when

you move the slide upward, the motor will run.

Teach-In from the Tx:

1. With the battery disconnected from the receiver,

and the transmitter turned on, move the throttle

slide to full throttle position. Leave it in this posi-

tion and then connect the battery to the receiver.

2. Wait for 2 seconds, and you will hear one long

tone to indicate the receiver is connected.

3. You will next hear a series of short tones to indi-

cate the current cutoff setting.

1 beep = 5.6V (6–7-cell Ni-MH )

2 beep = 6.0V (8–9-cell Ni-MH, 2-cell Li-Po)

3 beep = 9.0V (3-cell Li-Po)

7 beep = 70% Smart Cut soft cutoff

4. Next, after indicating the current cutoff setting,

wait 6 seconds. There will be a long beep

indicating you have successfully entered the

programming mode.

5. Once you have entered the programming mode,

the programming menu will give the following

selections:

1 beep = menu item1 = 5.6V (6–7-cell Ni-MH )

2 beep = menu item2 = 6.0V (8–9-cell Ni-MH,

2-cell Li-Po)

3 beep = menu item3 = 9.0V (3-cell Li-Po)

7 beep = menu item4 = 70% Smart Cut soft

cutoff

There will be a 4-second pause between each

selection. To confirm a selection, move the throttle

slider to the center position during the pause.

You will then hear 4 short beeps indicating that a

successful selection has been made.

Note: If the slider is left in the full throttle position

and upon reaching selection 4, no selection has

been made, the programming menu will repeat.

You may also scroll through the menu in reverse by

moving the throttle slide to the full down position

during any 4-second pause.

6. Move the throttle slide to idle. The receiver has

now armed the motor, and when you move the

slide upward, the motor will run.

This Rx/ESC will only have one jumper installed.

With jumper installed, dual rates are activated.

Removing the jumper (not recommended) will deac-

tivate dual rates.
