4. Safety Precautions
- Age Restriction: Not suitable for children under 14 years. Adult supervision is recommended for younger operators.
- Flying Environment: Fly in open areas, away from people, buildings, trees, power lines, and water bodies. Avoid flying in strong winds.
- Battery Safety:
- Do not overcharge the battery.
- Charge batteries in a safe, supervised area, away from flammable materials.
- If the battery is damaged or swollen, discontinue use immediately and dispose of it properly.
- Pre-Flight Check: Always ensure the aircraft and remote control are fully charged and properly linked before each flight.
- Propeller Safety: Keep hands and face clear of propellers when the aircraft is powered on.
- Anti-collision Head: The aircraft features an anti-collision soft rubber head for enhanced security and buffering effect.
5. Setup Guide
5.1 Assembly
- Attach Wings: Carefully slide the left and right wings into their designated slots on the fuselage until they are securely in place.
- Install Landing Gear: Insert the three landing gear components into the slots on the underside of the fuselage. Ensure they are firmly attached for stable take-offs and landings.
- Attach Rubber Head: Secure the soft rubber head to the front of the aircraft. This provides anti-collision protection.
- Install Battery: Open the battery compartment on the aircraft and connect the 7.4V 400mAh lithium battery. Close the compartment securely.

5.2 Charging the Battery
The aircraft is equipped with a high-rate lithium battery for strong power and long endurance. Use the provided USB charging cable.
- Connect the USB charging cable to the aircraft battery and a suitable USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, mobile phone charger).
- The charging indicator light will be red during charging.
- Charging takes approximately 60 minutes. The red light will turn off after about 40 minutes when fully charged. Do not overcharge.
- Always charge batteries in a safe, monitored location, away from flammable materials.

5.3 Remote Control Setup
- Install AAA batteries (not included) into the remote control.
- Ensure the aircraft battery is charged and connected.
- Turn on the aircraft, then turn on the remote control. The remote control and aircraft should automatically pair. Refer to the remote control diagram for specific functions.

6. Operating Instructions
The FX9630 features an intelligent gyroscope for assisted flight, making it easier to control. It supports various aerobatic maneuvers.
6.1 Basic Controls (Refer to Figure 6 for layout)
- Throttle Lever: Controls the aircraft's speed and altitude. Push up to increase throttle, pull down to decrease.
- Elevator Rocker: Controls the aircraft's pitch (nose up/down). Push up for nose down, pull down for nose up.
- Left/Right Turn Fine Adjustment: Adjusts the aircraft's yaw (left/right rotation).
- Head Up Trim: Fine-tunes the aircraft's pitch.
- Reduced Throttle Fine-tuning: Fine-tunes the throttle.
- Light Switch: Turns on/off aircraft lights (if applicable).
- Correction: Used for flight correction/trimming.
- ABC Three Mode: Selects different flight modes (e.g., beginner, intermediate, expert).
6.2 Take-off and Landing
- Take-off: Place the aircraft on a flat surface. Gradually increase the throttle. The landing gear allows for easier slip run to take off.
- Landing: Reduce throttle slowly and gently guide the aircraft down. Aim for a smooth, level landing.
6.3 Aerobatic Maneuvers
The FX9630 is capable of various maneuvers. Practice in a safe, open environment.
Video 1: Demonstrations of the FX9630 RC Plane performing various flight maneuvers, including backwards somersaults and inverted flying.
- Backwards Somersault: (Refer to video for demonstration)
- Lateral Roll Over: (Refer to video for demonstration)
- Falling Leaves Flying: (Refer to video for demonstration)
- Inverted Flying: (Refer to video for demonstration)
Mastering these maneuvers requires practice and understanding of the controls.
7. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the aircraft with a soft, dry cloth after use. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Store the aircraft and remote control in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Remove batteries from the remote control if storing for extended periods.
- EPP Foam: The EPP foam material is flexible and resistant to falling, designed to withstand impact. However, inspect for any damage after crashes and repair with appropriate foam-safe adhesive if necessary.
- Battery Care: Follow battery safety guidelines. Do not leave batteries fully discharged for long periods.
8. Troubleshooting
- Aircraft not responding:
- Ensure both aircraft and remote control are powered on.
- Check battery levels for both the aircraft and remote control.
- Re-pair the remote control with the aircraft if necessary (usually by cycling power on both).
- Poor flight stability:
- Check for any damage to the wings or fuselage.
- Ensure all control surfaces (if adjustable) are properly aligned.
- Verify the intelligent gyroscope is functioning correctly (usually self-calibrating on power-up).
- Adjust trim settings on the remote control.
- Short flight time:
- Ensure the battery is fully charged before flight.
- Battery performance can degrade over time; consider replacing if significantly reduced.
- Aircraft not taking off:
- Ensure sufficient throttle is applied.
- Check for any obstructions to the propellers.
- Verify landing gear is properly installed and not hindering movement.
9. User Tips
- Practice in Calm Conditions: For beginners, start flying in very calm weather to get accustomed to the controls.
- Gentle Controls: RC planes respond best to smooth, gentle control inputs. Avoid sudden or jerky movements.
- Battery Rotation: If you have multiple batteries, rotate their use to prolong their overall lifespan.
- Visual Line of Sight: Always keep the aircraft within your direct line of sight to maintain control and avoid disorientation.
- Learn from Others: Watching experienced RC pilots or online tutorials can provide valuable insights and techniques.
