PRE-ASSEMBLY NOTES
1. If you are not an experienced R/C pilot plan to have a fully
competent pilot help you to learn to fly your E-Hawk. This
will help you to be successful much faster and also avoid
potential damage to your model.
2. Please assemble your model exactly according to these
instructions. Do not attempt to modify or change the E-Hawk
in any way as doing so may adversely change its flying
characteristics.
3. Before you begin please check the entire contents of this
kit against the parts list and part drawings to be sure that no
parts are missing or damaged. This will also help you to
become familiar with each component of your E-Hawk. If
you find that any of the parts are either missing or damaged
please contact your dealer immediately for replacement.
Note: Your dealer cannot accept kits for return if construction
has begun.
For customers in the US and Canada please call or write to
ACE Hobby Distributors, Inc for replacement of missing or

Remember. We have worked very hard to make this model
as easy to assemble as possible while still maintaining our
high standards of quality. Your assembly of this model is
very important and will determine the final flight capabilities
of your E-Hawk, so use extra care and follow the assembly
procedure exactly.
OTHER ITEMS REQUIRED
Radio: You will need at least a
3 channel radio control system
with 3 mini servos on an
aircraft frequency for use in
your E-Hawk. However, if you
are really looking for every bit
of extra performance then you
should consider using one of
the miniature radio systems
available which would lower
the weight and increase the
performance of your E-Hawk.
Electronic motor controller: We recommend the ACE8007
AUTO CUT-OFF DEVICE or ACE8014 ESC-50 with BEC for
controlling the power of your E-Hawk as well as eliminating
the need for a separate radio battery. The BEC (Battery
Eliminator Circuitry) in this controller will automatically turn
off the power to the motor when the battery reaches a
factory present discharge level leaving about 20-25 minutes
of flight time for the radio system. Note: Some radio
manufacturers offer a lightweight radio system with a built-in
motor controller with BEC especially for this type of model.
Flight Battery: We recommend the use of a 6~7 cell
7.2~8.4V 2000 mAh battery pack for maximum performance.
Charger: You will need a quick charger to charge your
power battery. We recommend our ACE2529 EDC-01 simple
charge or TTR2685 7.2V DC Quick Charger for 6-cell
bettery pack or TTR2686 8.4V DC Quick Charger for 7-cell
bettery pack. Note: When charging your flight battery be
sure to very carefully follow the instructions provided with
the charger.
Extension Wire: 2 servo extensions plus Y harness are
required. If you are going to use Flaperon then it will require
2 servo extensions which are 15" in length minimum.
