Setup Guide
1. Install Wheel Accessories
Carefully attach the larger wheel accessories to the main landing gear slots on the underside of the aircraft wings. Insert the smaller wheel accessory into the designated slot at the tail of the aircraft.

2. Battery Installation and Charging
Insert the rechargeable batteries into the RC plane's battery compartment. Connect the USB charging cable to the batteries and a suitable USB power source (e.g., computer, USB wall adapter). The indicator light on the charger will show charging status. Ensure the remote control requires 3 AAA batteries (not included) and install them correctly, observing polarity.

3. Remote Control Pairing
Turn on the RC plane, then turn on the remote control. The remote control will automatically pair with the aircraft. A successful connection is usually indicated by a solid light on both devices.
Operating Instructions
1. Pre-Flight Checks
- Ensure batteries are fully charged in both the plane and remote.
- Check that all propellers are securely attached and undamaged.
- Verify that the control surfaces (rudder, elevators) move freely and correctly in response to remote input.
- Choose a wide, open area free from obstacles and people.
2. Launch Modes
The SIMREX X30 offers two launch methods:
- Hand Throw: Hold the RC plane by its fuselage, ensuring propellers are clear. Gently throw the plane forward into the wind while simultaneously applying throttle with the remote control.
- Runway Takeoff: Place the RC plane on a flat, smooth surface. Gradually increase throttle and steer with the remote control until the plane gains enough speed to lift off.

3. Speed Modes and Control
The aircraft features two speed modes (fast and slow) which can be switched with a dedicated button on the remote control. The 3-channel remote provides full control over direction and speed, allowing for precise maneuvers. The integrated 6-axis gyro system ensures stable and smooth flight, making it easier for beginners to control.

Maintenance
1. Propeller Replacement
If a propeller becomes damaged, use the provided tool to carefully remove the old propeller. Align the new propeller with the motor shaft and press it firmly into place. Ensure it spins freely without obstruction.

2. Cleaning and Storage
Wipe the aircraft with a soft, dry cloth after use. Store the RC plane and its components in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Remove batteries from both the aircraft and remote control during long periods of storage.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Aircraft does not respond to remote. | Low battery in plane or remote; not paired. | Charge batteries; re-pair remote and plane. |
| Aircraft flies erratically. | Damaged propeller; strong wind; gyro calibration issue. | Replace propeller; fly in calm conditions; re-calibrate gyro (refer to manual for specific steps). |
| Short flight time. | Batteries not fully charged; old batteries. | Ensure full charge; consider replacing old batteries. |
