AAAA: four of five, excellent for beginners. I hope TT to install 3 axis gyro with acceleration sensors.
Before your maiden flight, check the CG. Since mine was apparently tail-heavy, I taped about 25g lead to nose to keep the CG at main mast. Then check CP. +2 to +10 degree for flight mode0 and -4 to +10 for flight mode1 would be a good starting point.
The control system refuses to arm when the voltage of the pack below 12.2V. You may change this threshold by Innovator PC software.
When you set the battery pack improperly, the control system will warn with long beep. You should plug the battery into the yellow bracket until it clicks in, indicating the battery fixed properly. Plug the battery with the black release lever positioned as the photo below:
If you have any Futaba, Hitec or JR module based transmitter, optional 2.4GHz module (AQ2254, 2256, 2271) is highly recommended. With the module, you can set D/R, EXPO, PC and TC by your transmitter. You can use digital trim and timer also.
