Bind your Transmitter to the Aircaft

For a list of compatible DSM2/DSMX transmitters, please visit www.bindnﬂ y.com

For subsequent ﬂ ights, power ON the transmitter for 5 seconds before

connecting the ﬂ ight battery.

9Binding Procedure

CAUTION: When using a Futaba transmitter with a Spektrum DSM

module, you must reverse the throttle channel and rebind. Refer to

your Spektrum module manual for binding and failsafe instructions. Refer to

your Futaba transmitter manual for instructions on reversing the throttle

channel.

1. Refer to your transmitter’s unique instructions for binding to a

receiver (location of transmitter’s Bind control).

2. Make sure the ﬂ ight battery is disconnected from the aircraft.

3. Ensure the transmitter is powered OFF.

4. Connect a fully charged ﬂ ight battery to the aircraft and turn the

aircraft upright. The receiver LED will begin to ﬂ ash (typically after 5

seconds).

5. Ensure that control surface trims are centered and the throttle sticks

and trim are in the lowest position to correctly set the failsafe.

6. Put your transmitter into bind mode. Refer to your transmitter’s

manual for binding button or switch instructions.

7. After 5 to 10 seconds, the receiver status LED will turn solid,

indicating that the receiver is bound to the transmitter. If the LED does

not turn solid, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide at the back of the

manual.

A DSM2/DSMX

transmitter is required for

this aircraft.

Set wing type and servo

reversing to normal.

NOTICE: Do not set your

transmitter travel adjust

over 100%, doing so may

overdrive the servo and

cause damage.

Dual Rates

High Low

Aileron 100% 70%

Elevator 100% 70%

Rudder 100% 70%

For the ﬁ rst ﬂ ight, ﬂ y the model in low rate.

For landing, we recommend using high rate elevator.

1-2-3-4-5 Sec.

CAUTION: Always keep hands away from the propeller. When armed, the

motor will turn the propeller in response to any throttle movement.

Arming the ESC/receiver also occurs after binding as previously described, but

subsequent connection of a ﬂ ight battery requires the following steps.

AS3X

The AS3X® system activate until the throttle stick or trim is will not

increased for the first time. Once active, the control surfaces may move

rapidly and noisily on the aircraft. This is normal. AS3X technology will

remain active until the battery is disconnected.

1. Open the battery hatch from the fuselage.

2. Install the flight battery in the center of battery tray. Ensure the battery is

secured by the hook and loop strip.

Center of Gravity (CG)

At the wing root, measure back from the leading edge where the wing 36mm

meets the fuselage. The easiest way to achieve CG is to balance the aircraft

inverted.

3. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest settings on your

transmitter. Power on your transmitter, then wait 5 seconds.

4. Connect the battery to the ESC, noting proper polarity. Keep the plane

immobile and away from wind for 5 seconds to allow the AS3X system to

initialize. A series of tones and a continuous LED indicates a successful

connection.

CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the ESC when not

ﬂ ying to eliminate power supplied to the motor. The ESC does not have an

arming switch and will respond to any transmitter input when a signal

is present.

CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the ESC when not

ﬂ ying to avoid over-discharging the battery. Batteries discharged to a voltage

lower than the lowest approved voltage may become damaged, resulting in loss

of performance and potential ﬁ re when batteries are charged.

Centering the Control Surfaces

Control Direction Tests

There are 2 types of control direction tests to perform on your aircraft. One is to conﬁ rm that your transmitter inputs are correctly performed by your aircraft. The second test

is to conﬁ rm that AS3X® technology is operating correctly in your aircraft. Use the chart below to assist you with performing these test.

Before your ﬁ rst ﬂ ight make sure the aircraft’s control surfaces are centered.

1. Power on the transmitter and then the aircraft.

2. Set all transmitter trims and sub-trims to zero.

3 Check the control surfaces to make sure they are centered.

4. If centering is required, use a pair of pliers to carefully bend the metal linkage

(see illustration).

In ﬂ ight trimming may be required

During your ﬁ rst ﬂ ight, the aircraft should ﬂ y straight and level. Use your transmitter

trims to ﬁ ne tune the aircraft’s ﬂ ight path until its ﬂ ight path has been corrected. Any

transmitter trim that requires 4 or more clicks of trim (per channel), should be mechani-

cally centered. Note the control surface’s postion and return the transmitter trim to zero.

Adjust the linkages mechanically so that the control surfaces are in the ﬂ ight trimmed position.

Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)

LVC is a feature built into your ESC to protect the battery from over-discharge. When the

battery charge becomes too low, LVC limits power supplied to the motor. When you hear

the motor power pulse, land the aircraft immediately and recharge the ﬂ ight battery.

NOTICE: Do not rely on LVC to determine when to land your aircraft. Set a flight timer to

the recommended flight time. Repeated flying to LVC will damage the battery.

Make the U-shape narrower to make the

connector shorter. Make the U-shape wider to

make the linkage longer.

Flying Tips

We recommend ﬂ ying your aircraft outside in calm conditions. Always avoid ﬂ ying near houses, trees, wires

and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid ﬂ ying in areas where there are many people, such as busy

parks, schoolyards or soccer ﬁ elds. Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to ﬂ y your

aircraft.

Takeoff

Place the aircraft in position for takeoff (facing into the wind if ﬂ ying outdoors). Set dual rates to low position

and gradually increase the throttle to ¾ to full and steer with the rudder. Pull back gently on the elevator and

climb to check trim. Once the trim is adjusted, begin exploring the ﬂ ight envelope of the aircraft.

Landing

Land into the wind. Fly the aircraft to approximately 6 inches (15cm) or less above the runway, using a small

amount of throttle for the entire descent. Keep the throttle on until the aircraft is ready to ﬂ are.

During ﬂ are, keep the wings level and the airplane pointed into the wind. Gently lower the throttle while

pulling back on the elevator to bring the aircraft down on all three wheels.

Failure to lower the throttle stick and trim to the lowest possible positions during

a crash could result in damage to the ESC in the receiver unit, which may require

replacement.

Over Current Protection (OCP)

This aircraft is equipped with Over Current Protection (OCP). This feature protects

the ESC from damage. OCP stops the motor when the transmitter throttle is set

too high and the propeller cannot turn. The OCP will only activate when the throttle

stick is positioned just above 1/2 throttle. After the ESC stops the motor, fully lower

the throttle to re-arm the ESC.

NOTICE: Crash damage is not covered under the warranty.

CAUTION:

Always decrease

throttle at propeller

strike.

Repairs

Repair the aircraft only with foam-compatible CA (cyanoacrylate adhesive) or clear tape. Use of other types

of glue can damage the foam. For a listing of all replacement and optional parts, refer to the product page

online at Horizonhobby.com.

NOTICE: Use of foam-compatible CA accelerant on your aircraft can damage paint. DO NOT handle the

aircraft until the accelerant fully dries.

NOTICE: When you are ﬁ nished ﬂ ying, never leave the aircraft in direct sunlight or in a hot, enclosed area

such as a car. Doing so can damage the foam.

Optional Float installation (EFLUA1190)

Follow the instructions included with your optional ﬂ oat set for assembly. Replace the rear strut on the ﬂ oat assembly with the rear strut included with the J-3 Cub. Once the

rear strut has been switched, install the fully assembled ﬂ oat set as shown.

1. Disconnect the flight battery from the

ESC (required for safety and battery life).

2. Power OFF the transmitter.

3. Remove the flight battery from the

aircraft.

4. Recharge the flight battery.
