Step 1
Step 2
Charging the Flight Batteries
We recommend that you choose either the ParkZone
1300mAh 3S Li-Po (PKZ1033) or the E-flite 1250mAh
3S Li-Po (EFLB12503S) to power your Radian PNP.
You may also choose to use an 11.1V 1800-2100mAh
Li-Po battery for increased flight time, however you
may experience a slight decrease in performance due
to the additional weight. The Li-Po battery must be
charged with a charger that is specifically designed to
handle Li-Po batteries, such as the ParkZone 2- to 3-cell
Li-Po Charger (PKZ1040) or the E-flite 1- to 5-cell Li-Po
charger (EFLC505).
Regardless of the battery you choose, always follow the
charger and battery instructions in order to avoid any
damage to the battery, charger, property or yourself.
It is important to have a fully charged flight battery,
as well as adequately charged transmitter batteries.
These will be used in Step 5 to properly set up the
control linkages.
Installing the Receiver
The Radian PNP features a pre-molded receiver cavity
located in front of the servos on the bottom of the
fuselage. We recommend that you choose either the
Spektrum AR500 5-channel sport receiver (SPMAR500)
or the Spektrum AR6200 6-channel receiver
(SPMAR6200). It is very important that you select a
“full range” receiver for the Radian PNP. We do not
recommend using a “park flyer” receiver such as the
Spektrum AR6000, AR6100 or AR6300. Thermals can
quickly take the Radian out of range when using park
flyer receivers.
Install the receiver into the allotted space within the
fuselage and make sure it is secure.
Carefully plug the servo leads into the corresponding
channels of the receiver you have chosen. Confirm that
the servo leads/plugs are in the correct channel of the
receiver by:
1. Turning on the transmitter.
2. Installing a charged flight battery.
3. Plugging the flight battery into the ESC.
4. Checking all functions to ensure proper setup.
On 3-channel aircraft such as the Radian, it is common
to plug the rudder servo into the aileron channel.
Keep all body parts away from the propeller. You can
also make any trim adjustments to the control surfaces
at this time. Once you are satisfied that the channels
are functioning correctly, you can unplug the flight
battery and turn off the radio system.
Step 3
Attaching the Wing
In order to attach the wing of your Radian, please follow
these simple instructions:
1. Locate the wing tube, as well as the left and right
wing panels.
2. Slide the wing tube into the socket located in either
the left or right wing panel. Confirm the wing tube
is fully seated in the socket.
Note: Use caution when inserting the wing tube into
the sockets of the left and right wing panels. Pushing
too hard will damage the wing panels.
3. Slide the wing tube and panel through the opening
in the fuselage. Slide the wing panel into the
fuselage, making sure it is fully seated.
4. Slide the opposite wing panel onto the wing tube.
Press the remaining wing panel into the fuselage
until it is fully seated. The wing panels are keyed
to “lock” when the wing is installed.
