4.3 Horizontal Stabilizer Installation

Insert the horizontal stabilizer spat into the pass-through on the fuselage. Insert both halves of the horizontal stabilizer onto the spat. Use the included bolts to secure the horizontal stabilizer.

4.4 Control Surface Connections

With the elevator servo centered, connect the pushrod to the control horn on the elevator. Repeat for other control surfaces (ailerons, rudder) as necessary. The ball-link pushrods ensure increased precision.

4.5 Pemasangan Baling-Baling

Install the propeller and spinner in the order shown in the diagram (refer to the physical manual for detailed diagram). Ensure it is securely fastened.

4.6 Pemasangan Baterai

The aircraft features an oversized battery compartment. Insert your recommended 14.8V 2200-2600mAh 35C LiPo battery (not included) into the compartment and secure it with the provided strap (if any) to prevent shifting during flight.

5. Petunjuk Pengoperasian

5.1 Pemeriksaan Pra-Penerbangan

  • Verify all control surfaces move freely and correctly in response to transmitter inputs.
  • Check battery charge level on both the aircraft and transmitter.
  • Pastikan baling-baling terpasang dengan aman dan tidak rusak.
  • Confirm the Reflex V2 system is correctly configured for your desired flight mode.

5.2 Lepas landas

The 1700mm PA-18 Super Cub is known for its Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) capability, achieving takeoff heights of less than 3 meters/10 feet. Position the aircraft into the wind, gradually increase throttle, and apply slight elevator input as speed builds to lift off.

5.3 Penerbangan

The aircraft offers excellent flight characteristics. Use gentle control inputs for smooth flight. For advanced maneuvers, ensure you are in the appropriate Reflex V2 mode.

5.4 Pendaratan

Approach the landing area into the wind. Reduce throttle and maintain a controlled descent. Apply slight elevator input just before touchdown for a smooth landing. The CNC metal landing gear and oversized tires are designed for perfect landings on various terrains.

6. Reflex V2 Flight Controller System

The Reflex V2 is a user-upgradeable flight controller compatible with most FMS aircraft. It can be reprogrammed easily with different model files via a simple software interface. It offers three flight modes:

  • Stabilized Mode: Designed for beginners. Reflex will rapidly level the aircraft from any attitude when this mode is activated. It combines accelerometer and gyro data to determine how to level the aircraft when the control sticks are released, providing peace of mind. The aircraft will maintain level flight with 50-60% throttle and climb under full throttle.
  • Optimized Mode: Utilizing advanced solid-state gyros, the Reflex system maintains aircraft attitude by counteracting inflight upsets, such as gusts or crosswinds. With Reflex, even small aircraft will fly with confidence, similar to much larger models.
  • Modus Mati: This turns off all gyro functionality. The aircraft is flown completely manually.

These modes are controlled with a two or three-position switch on your transmitter. When assigned to a two-position switch, the Reflex system changes between stabilized and optimized modes.

7. Pemeliharaan

  • Regularly inspect all components for damage, especially after hard landings.
  • Check propeller for cracks or chips and replace if damaged.
  • Ensure all screws and connections are tight.
  • Keep the aircraft clean and free from dirt and debris.
  • Simpan pesawat di tempat sejuk dan kering, terhindar dari sinar matahari langsung.
