Trouble Shooting Guide for SAFE Technology
Problem
Flying over recommended airspeed Reduce air speed
Damaged propeller or spinner
Imbalanced propeller
Motor vibration
Oscillation
Loose receiver
Loose aircraft controls
Worn parts
Irregular servo rotation
Trim is at extreme and
aircraft does not fly Trim is not at neutral
straight or level
Trouble Shooting Guide
Problem
Aircraft will not respond
to throttle but responds to
other controls
Extra propeller noise or extra
vibration
Reduced flight time or
aircraft underpowered
Aircraft will not Bind (during
binding) to transmitter
Aircraft will not connect
(after binding) to transmitter
®
Possible Cause
Replace propeller or spinner
Balance the propeller. For more information, view John Redman's propeller balancing video
at www.horizonhobby.com
Replace parts or correctly align all parts and tighten fasteners as needed
Total system failure. Align and secure receiver in fuselage
Tighten or otherwise secure parts (servo, arm, linkage, horn and control surface)
Adjust gain to compensate for parts wear or replace worn parts (especially propeller, pivot points or servo)
Replace servo
If you adjust trim more than 4 clicks, adjust the clevis to mechanically remove trim
Possible Cause
Throttle not at lowest position or throttle trim too high
Throttle servo travel is lower than 100%
Throttle channel is reversed
Motor disconnected from ESC
Damaged propeller and spinner, collet or motor
Propeller is out of balance
Prop nut is too loose
Spinner is not tight or fully seated in place
Flight battery charge is low
Propeller installed backwards
Flight battery damaged
Flight conditions may be too cold
Battery capacity too low for flight conditions
Transmitter too near aircraft during binding process
Aircraft or transmitter is too close to large metal object, wireless source or
another transmitter
The bind plug is not installed correctly in the bind port
Flight battery/transmitter battery charge is too low
Bind switch or button not held long enough during bind process
Transmitter too near aircraft during connecting
process
Aircraft or transmitter is too close to large metal
object, wireless source or another transmitter
Bind plug left installed in bind port
Aircraft bound to different model memory
(ModelMatch radios only)
TM
Flight battery/Transmitter battery charge is too low
Transmitter may have been bound using different DSM protocol
Solution
Reset controls with throttle stick and throttle trim at
lowest setting
Make sure throttle servo travel is 100% or greater
Reverse throttle channel on transmitter
Make sure motor is connected to the ESC
Replace damaged parts
Balance or replace propeller
Tighten the prop nut
Tighten the spinner or remove the spinner and turn
it 180 degrees
Completely recharge flight battery
Install propeller with numbers facing forward
Replace flight battery and follow flight battery
instructions
Make sure battery is warm before use
Replace battery or use a larger capacity battery
Move powered transmitter a few feet from aircraft,
disconnect and reconnect flight battery to aircraft
Move aircraft and transmitter to another location and
attempt binding again
Install bind plug in bind port and bind the aircraft to
the transmitter
Replace/recharge batteries
Power off transmitter and repeat bind process. Hold
transmitter bind
button or switch until receiver is bound
Move powered transmitter a few feet from aircraft,
disconnect and reconnect
flight battery to aircraft
Move aircraft and transmitter to another location and
attempt connecting again
Rebind transmitter to the aircraft and remove the
bind plug before cycling power
Select correct model memory on transmitter
Replace/recharge batteries
Bind aircraft to transmitter
