Battery Selection

The E-fl ite ® 2200mAh 14.4V 4S 30C Li-Po battery (EFLM22004s30) is
recommended. The EFL22003S30 battery may also be used. Refer to the Optional
Parts List for other recommended batteries. If using a battery other than those

1. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest settings. Power on the

loop tape to the bottom of your battery, and the hook side to the battery tray.
3. Press the latch button and remove the battery hatch.
4. Install the fully charged battery in the center of the battery compartment as
shown. Secure using the hook and loop straps.
5. Connect the battery to the ESC (the ESC is now armed).
CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller. When armed,
the motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle movement.
6. Keep the aircraft immobile and away from wind or the system will
not initialize.
• The ESC will sound a series of tones. Three fl at tones followed immediately
by two ascending tones. The tones indicate the ESC is armed, provided the throttle
stick and throttle trim are low enough to trigger arming.
• An LED will light on the receiver when it is initialized
If the ESC sounds a continuous double beep after the fl ight battery is
connected, recharge or replace the battery.
7. Reinstall the battery hatch.
