Battery Installation and ESC Arming

Battery Selection
3200mAh 6S 22.2V Smart 30C
We recommend a
LiPo battery with EC5™ or IC5™ connector for standard operation. If using
a different battery, the battery should be of similar capacity, dimensions
and weight to fi t in the fuselage. Always be sure the model balances at the
recommended CG with the battery chosen.
1. Lower the throttle to the lowest setting.
2. Power on the transmitter and wait 5 seconds.
3. Apply the loop side (soft side) of the hook and loop tape to the bottom of
your battery.
4. Slide the canopy latch back and lift the back of the canopy to remove.
5. Install the fully charged battery in the battery compartment as shown.
See the Adjusting the Center of Gravity instructions for more information.
6. Secure the fl ight battery with the hook and loop strap.
7. Connect the ESC to the battery power lead EC5™ or IC5™ connector,
noting the correct polarity. The ESC will emit two sets of audible tones in
succession indicating the programming status.
• The fi rst set of tones indicates the number of cells in the connected LiPo
battery pack.
6 rapid tones = 6
• The second set of tones indicates the brake status. One tone
indicates brake "ON" and two tones indicates brake "OFF".
NOTICE: Connecting the battery to the ESC with incorrect polarity will
damage the ESC and void the warranty.
8. The ESC is now ready for use.*
9. Reinstall the canopy hatch.
* While additional programming of the ESC is not necessary to operate your
aircraft, programming options are available. Visit www.horizonhobby.com for
complete instructions on programming the included ESC.

Center of Gravity (CG)

The center of gravity location is measured from the leading edge of the wing at
the root with the landing gear down. The CG location is adjusted by moving the
battery pack forward or backward in the battery compartment.
NOTICE: Install the battery in the aircraft, but do not connect the battery to
the ESC while checking the CG. Personal injury may result.
