- A battery
- A transmitter / receiver set (3 channels at least)
2. Assembling the motor and the propeller
Remove the 4 nuts that are on the engine mounting screws.
Remove the 4 spacers. They are used to adjust the anti- torque of the motor.
From behind the chassis, the propeller should be rotating clockwise.
This implies that the engine must be mounted with some angle as shown on the picture below.
If the propeller has an anti-clockwise rotation then we need to reverse the tilt of the motor to the
left.

Then mount the 4 nuts on and then secure
them with thread lock or some glue.

The ESC (controller) has to be put in the
place designed to welcome it, using two
colson cable ties (not included). Pay a
special attention to isolating the connectors
between the motor and the controller to
prevent any short-circuit with the chassis.
1. 3. Installing the pilot
Getting the pilot ready:
Put the ballast in the very bottom of the harness.
Put your battery in the back of the harness as shown on the picture below:

!"#$%&'()*+!,&!-%./012.'.3$40/5!6786!98:7! !2.)0!6!5;'!7!
Then position the pilot onto the Backpack.
Connect the ESC (controller) to the receiver.
Put the receiver into the harness and close it with the zipper.
Grab the 3 rubber bands. Start by attaching the legs and then the pilot's body.

The Pilot
This step will help you check if the pilot's arms are properly installed to reach their maximum
amplitude thus giving you control to brake.
First, please turn your radio transmitter on and turn your receiver on. Make sure you have set the
delta mixing on your radio.
Then push your elevator stick up to the top to get the pilot's arm in the upper position. Once the
arms are in the upper position, lift the system using the 2 stainless steel buckles.

Now, please make sure that the pilot's arms are not behind this imaginary line (red line on the
picture above), which represents the risers in flight. If the arms are on this line or behind that line,
you will then need to unscrew the arm and then bring the arms forward to ensure they will stay in
front of this imaginary line when risen up to the top.
