MAIN WING
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Pass the supplied carbon fiber wing joiner through the fuselage
3. Repeat Step #2 for the left wing.
1
2. Install the right wing onto the fuselage and connect the wing servo lead. Then
gently push the wing against the fuselage until it hits the magnet on the wing
saddle. The servo lead should also be tucked nicely inside the groove in between
the wing and the fuselage. The built-in magnet wing locking system on the wing
saddle will hold the wing securely.

HORIZONTAL STABILIZER
1. Get the Left/Right stabilizer parts ready. Apply foam safe glue to the root of the
stabilizer and install the left hand side stab onto the fuselage tail as shown.
2. Repeat the above steps for the right-hand side horizontal stabilizer.
3. View the model from the front, ensure the left and right horizontal stabilizer are
installed correctly like the picture shown below. Check this frequently as the glue dries.
VERTICAL FIN
Apply a thin layer of foam safe glue to the vertical fin and install it onto the
fuselage as shown.
5

View the model once again from the front, the vertical fin should be
perpendicular to the main wing. Check frequently as the glue dries.

Glue into place the nose cone

C OF G POSIT ION
The C of G is 48-53 mm from the wings leading edge. For first flights we
recommend you use the forward measurement. Once you get used to the
model you can then move it back, do not though exceed the most rearward
measurement.

F-16 ORX FLIGHT
STABILISATION SYSTEM
FEAT URES
• Integrated with a 32bit MCU and a 6 axis digital gyro for ultra fast flight control
response.
• The ORX stabilisation device is tuned specifically to a particular model for the
best flying performance.
• Supports PWM, PPM and SBUS. Auto-detect.
• Supports 3 different flight modes (Beginner, Intermediate and Expert)
CH AN NEL INPUT
Flight mode (a 3-way toggle switch should be assigned for flight mode selection)
PWM input: Ch 1. Aileron, Ch 2.Elevator, Ch 3 Throttle, and Ch 5 Flight mode
(a 3-way toggle switch should be assigned for flight mode selection)
PPM input: Plug the flight mode/SBUS/PPM channel input plug into your
receiver which supports PPM out. Here is the Ch assignment and shown as
follow. Ch 1. Aileron, Ch 2. Elevator, and Ch 3 Throttle. Ch 5 (a 3-way toggle
switch should be assigned for flight mode selection)
SBUS input: Plug the Flight mode/SBUS/PPM channel input plug into a receiver
which supports SBUS. CH 5 (a 3-way toggle switch should be assigned for flight
mode selection)

PUSHROD LI NKAGES SETUP
Connect the ORX via one of the PWM/PPM/SBUS inputs of your chosen
receivers. Connect a 4S Li-Po battery pack and switch on your TX to prepare to
set the throws of the control surfaces. Ensure the servo horns on all servo
output shafts are perpendicular to servo cases, and all control surfaces are
perfectly level. Reset all electronic trims on your TX to the centre position and
remove any Dual Rates/End points settings, leave them at 100% and expo at
0%. There are two sets of pushrods which come with the kit. The shorter ones
are used for ailerons and the longer ones are used for elevators. Install the
supplied longer pushrod to the right-hand side elevator servo horn and use the
third hole from the top as shown. Then repeat the above steps for the elevator
servo on the left-hand side. If you are happy with the above setup, you may
start to set up aileron control surfaces. Install the supplied shorter pushrod to the
right-hand side aileron servo horn and use the forth hole from the top as shown.
Then repeat the above steps to install the pushrod linkage on the left-hand side.
