Text of the manual
When it was released, the Hobbyking Walrus became an instant classic, a firm favorite among
club and park fliers alike the only down side being that when the sun set, the fun was over for
the day. However with the new Night Walrus the fun can continue long after the sun goes
down!
The Night Walrus is the perfect marriage of a solid model design with dazzling LED system.
The Night Walrus is just as easy to assemble, flies amazingly well, just like the original yet the
pre-installed LED system running throughout the model really adds a new element to this
lassie. Its not only the LED's that are new, the air frame itself has been strengthen and
components upgrades. The fuselage now sports a reinforcing plastic belly pan strengthening
the fuselage and giving extra model protection even in those hardest of night landings. The
motor and ESC have been updated and additional cooling has been added to the design and
the new 'Night Walrus' scheme is vibrant even without the L
The pre-installed LED system is powered by simply connecting the LED power lead to an
additional connection from the ESC, giving you full 12volts supply from the lipo/esc for the
brightest LED's around. So during the day you can leave the LED system unplugged or not,
the choice is yours.
Flight times on the recommended 2200mah 3S are still in access of 7mins, regardless.
We are confident that the Night Walrus will quickly find.,,
the 'go to' model for pure fun, day or night. Please me sur
assembling your Night Walrus and thank you for purchasln
