•Whentransportingortemporarilystoringthebattery,thetemperaturerangeshould

befromapproximately40–100°F.Donotstorethebatteryormodelinahotgarage,

canbedamagedorevencatchfire.

•Donotover‐dischargetheLiPoflightbattery.DischargingtheLiPoflightbatterytoo

lowcancausedamagetothebatteryresultinginreducedpower,flightdurationor

failureofthebatteryentirely.



LiPocellsshouldnotbedischargedtobelow3.0Veachunderload.Inthecaseofthe

wanttoallowthebatterytofallbelow3.0Vduringflight.



The3‐in‐1controlunitfeaturesasoftlowvoltagecutoff(LVC)thatsmoothlyreduces

thanthetypicalamountofthrottle/powerisrequiredtocruiseorclimbyoushould

landthemodelanddisconnectthebatteryimmediatelytopreventover‐discharge.



AndwhileitispossibletopowerthemodelupandflyagainafterthesoftLVC



Also,itisnotrecommendedthatyouflytothesoftLVCeverytimeyoufly.Instead

youshouldbeawareofthepowerlevelofthebattery/airplanethroughoutthe

Also,althoughthewhiteconnectorsare‘keyed’tominimizetheriskofareversepolarity

connection,ifyouforcethemitispossibletomakeconnectionwiththeincorrectpolarity

potentiallycausingdamagetothe3‐in‐1controlunitand/orbattery.Whentheredcircle

markingsareproperlyalignedforcorrectpolarity,connectingthewhiteconnectorsshould

requireonlyaminimalamountofpressuretoachievethelight‘click’thatindicatessecure

connection.



AftertheLiPobatteryisconnectedtothe3‐in‐1controlunittheuniquemagneticattachment

designmakesitquickandeasytoinstallthebattery.Simplyplacethesideofthebatterywith

themagneticattachmentsagainstthemagnetslocatedinthebatterycompartmentandthe

batterywillbemountedsecurelyintheairplane.



ToremovetheLiPoflightbattery,liftitawayfromthemagnetsthendisconnectitfrom

the3‐in‐1controlunit.DONOTpoweroffthetransmitteruntiltheLiPoflightbatteryis

removedfromtheairplaneandthe3‐in‐1controlunitispoweredoff.REMEMBER:The

transmitterisalwaysonfirstandalwaysofflast!



YourUltra‐MicroTrainer100isequippedwithacompactandadvanced3‐in‐1controlunit.

Thecontrolunitisalightweightcombinationof2.4GHzreceiver,twoservosandanelectronic

Beforeeachflightyoushouldalwaysturnthetransmitteronbeforeconnecting

theflightbatterytothecontrolunit.Neverconnecttheflightbatterytothe

controlunitbeforepoweringthetransmitteronfirst(exceptwhen

binding/linking,asnotedinthatsectionofthismanual).Aftereachflightyou

shouldalwaysdisconnecttheflightbatteryfromthecontrolunitbefore

poweringoffthetransmitter.



Theleft‐hand/throttlestickmustbesetinthelowestpossiblepositioninorder

fortheESCofthecontrolunittoarm.

NOTE:Ifthisisthefirstflight,orafirstflightfollowingrepairs,youshouldcenter

theaileronandelevatorchanneltrims.Usethedigitaltrimbuttonsandreference

thecentertrimpositionsusingtheaudiblebeeps/tones.



PoweronthetransmitterandconfirmthattheLEDindicatorisglowingsolidred.

ThenconnectandinstalltheLiPoflightbatteryintheairplane.



Withtheflightbatteryconnectedtothecontrolunit,thecontrols/control

surfacesshouldmovebackandforthbrieflytoindicatethatthecontrolunithas

initializedproperly.

16

Aslongasyouhadtheleft‐hand/throttlesticksettothelowestpossibleposition

duringtheinitializationprocesstheESC/motorwillnowbearmed.Usecautionas

thepropellerwillnowspinwithleft‐hand/throttlestickinput!



Incasethecontrols/controlsurfacesdonotmovebackandforthbriefly:

•Ifthecontrols/controlsurfacesdonotmovebackandforthbrieflyyoudonot

haveapositiveradiofrequency(RF)linkbetweenthetransmitterandreceiverof

thecontrolunit.First,checktobesurethetransmitterispoweredonandthe

LEDindicatoronthetransmitterisglowingsolidred.Ifthetransmitteris

poweredonandfunctioningproperly,disconnecttheflightbatteryfromthe

controlunit.Thenreconnecttheflightbatteryandnowthecontrolunitshould

initializeandarmproperly.



Incasethecontrols/controlsurfacesmoveautomaticallybutyouhavenocontrolof

themotor:

•Ifthecontrols/controlsurfacesmovebackandforthbrieflybutyoudonothave

controlofthemotor,youhaveapositiveRFlinkbetweenthetransmitterand

receiverbuttheESC/motordidnotarmbecausetheleft‐hand/throttlestickmay

notbesettothecorrectposition.Checktobesuretheleft‐hand/throttlestickis

inthelowestpossibleposition,andonceinthecorrectpositiontheESC/motor

willbearmed.



AfterconfirmingthecontrolunitisinitializedandtheESC/motorhasarmedproperly

yourUltra‐MicroTrainer100isreadytofly.However,pleasereviewthefollowing

sectionsofthemanualBEFOREproceedingwiththefirstflight.







IntheeventyouarenotfamiliarwiththecontrolsofyourUltra‐MicroTrainer100,please

takethetimetofamiliarizeyourselfwiththemasfollowsandbeforeattemptingyourfirst

flight.



Theleft‐handstickonthetransmittercontrolsthethrottle.Whentheleft‐handstick(also

knownasthe‘throttle’stick)isinthelowestpossiblepositionthepropellerwillnotspin.



Movingthestickupwardwillincreasethe

speed/RPMofthepropeller.Increasingthe

speedofthepropellerincreasesthespeedof

themodelandalsoprovidesthethrustneeded

toclimb/increasealtitude.



Decreasingthespeed/RPMofthepropellerby

loweringtheleft‐handstickwilldecreasethe

speedofthemodelandreducethrustmaking

itpossibletodescend/decreasealtitude.



Duringflightyoucanalsoadjustthethrottletoaposition,typicallybetween1/3and2/3

power,tocruiseatagivenaltitudeandincreaseflightduration.

Theright‐handstickcontrolsboththeelevatorandtherudder.Pushingthestick

forward/upwardwilllowertheelevatorandpitchthenoseoftheairplanedownwardto

descend.



Pullingthestickbackward/downwardwillraisetheelevatorandpitchthenoseofthe

airplaneupwardtoclimb.



Theelevatortrimcanbeusedtohelpkeeptheairplanefromclimbingordescendingwhenin

cruiseflightandwithnoright‐handstick/elevatorinput.Forexample,iftheairplaneclimbs

whenattemptingtocruiseandmaintainagivenaltitude,adddownelevatortrimuntilthe

airplanefliesaslevelaspossibleandmaintainsthedesiredaltitudeatcruisespeed.





19

Movingthesticktotheleftwillmovetheruddertotheleft.Thiswillroll/turntheairplaneto

theleft.



Movingthesticktotherightwillmovetheruddertotheright.Thiswillroll/turntheairplane

totheright.



Thetrimcanbeusedtohelpkeeptheairplanefromdrifting/turningleftorrightduringflight

withnoright‐handstick/rudderinput.Forexample,iftheairplanedriftstotherightinflight,

addlefttrimuntiltheairplanefliesasstraightaspossiblewithoutdrifting.



Andonceyou’refamiliarwiththeprimarycontrolsoftheairplaneyou’realmostreadytofly!





Whenyou’rereadytomakeyourfirstflightsyou’llwanttoselectanopenoutdoorareafree

ofpeopleandobstructions.Wesuggestanareaapproximatelythesizeofasoccerfieldwhen

makingyourfirstfewflights.Wealsosuggestflyingovergrassasit’samuchmoreforgiving

surfacethatcauseslessdamageintheunfortunateeventofacrash.However,pleasenote

thatwhenattemptingtolandongrassitcancatchthelandinggear,potentiallycausingthe

modeltoflipandbecomedamaged.Withthisinmind,anidealflyingareaallowsforflying

overgrassandlandingonasmoothersurfacesuchasasphaltorthedirtonabaseballfield.



Also,whiletheUltra‐MicroTrainer100’sfull‐airfoilwingdesignhelpsmakeitpossibletoflyin

lightwinds,westronglysuggestflyingonlyincalmconditionsuntilyou’refamiliarwiththe

controlsandhandlingofthemodel.Evenlightwindscanmakeitmuchmoredifficulttolearn

tofly,andinsomecasescanevencarrythemodelbeyondyourlineofsightandtherangeof

thetransmittersignal.



Afteryou’veproperlytrimmedtheairplaneincalmconditionsandbecomefamiliarwithits

handlingandcapabilities,you’llbeabletoflyinlightwindsandsmalleroutdoorareas.You’ll

alsobeabletoflyinlargerindoorareassuchasabasketballgymasyourskillscontinueto

improve.



Nowthatyou’veselectedasuitableflyingareaandthecontrolunitisinitializedandarmed,

yourUltra‐MicroTrainer100isreadytofly.Andwhenmakingyourfirstflightswesuggest

followingthesesteps:



TherearetwowaystogettheUltra‐MicroTrainer100intotheair.Thefirst,andour

suggestedmethodforfirst‐timepilots,istohand‐launchthemodel.Thisiseasyto

accomplishbyholdingthemodelinyourhandwiththewingslevelANDTHENOSE

POINTEDINTOANYWIND.Then,advancethethrottleto3/4orfullpowerandgently

‘push’themodelforwardwiththenoseleveltoorslightlyabovethehorizon.The

airplanewillbeflyingalmostimmediatelyafteritleavesyourhandallowingyouto

focusonkeepingthewingslevelwhilecontinuingtoclimbtoasafealtitude.
