appropriate channels of the receiver.
3. Attach the aileron Y-harness to the aileron channel of
the receiver.

Battery Selection and Installation
We recommend the PKZ1033 11.1 V 3S 1300mAh LiPo •
pack.
If using another LiPo, the battery must be a minimum
•
11.1V 1300mAh battery pack with a discharge rating
no less than 15C.
Longer hook and loop straps have been provided in
•
the event that you choose to fly with a higher capacity
(or larger) 3S LiPo pack. Use this hook and loop strap
to secure the flight battery.

Range Check and Pre-Flying Tips
Range Check your Radio System
After final assembly, range check the radio system with the F4F
Wildcat. Refer to your specific transmitter instruction manual for
range test information.
Before Each Flying Session
• Always properly trim your F4F Wildcat before each flight.
• Always make sure the receiver, ESC, and battery are secured
in the fuselage.
• Turn on the transmitter before plugging in the flight battery.
With the aircraft on the ground and motor running, you should
walk away approximately 100 feet and still have full control of
all functions while following the specific range test feature of
your DSM2 transmitter. If this is not the case, do not fly. Contact
the appropriate Horizon Product Support office.
• Always make sure controls function per your transmitter
input. This includes ailerons, rudder, elevator and throttle.
• Always charge transmitter batteries or install fresh batteries
before you fly.
• Always make sure the servo reversing switches on the
transmitter are set correctly.
• Always make sure the dual rates switch is at the rate setting
where you plan to fly. We recommend LOW rates for your initial
flying. The F4F Wildcat is VERY maneuverable on high rates and
requires a lot of experience to handle properly.
CAUTION: Always remove flight battery from the
aircraft going to the flying field and when finished flying.
