Technology There are three flight modes programmed into the flight controller on this aircraft. The pilot can choose the level of stabilization needed to suit their skills and flying style. When needed, SAFE® (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology can level the aircraft and create a limited flight envelope. SAFE technology delivers: • Flight envelope protection you can select with the flight mode switch. • Flight modes with features to suit all skill levels.
Throttle Hold Throttle hold is used to prevent the motor from powering on inadvertently. For safety, turn throttle hold ON any time you need to touch the helicopter or check the direction controls. Throttle hold is also used to turn off the motor quickly if the helicopter is out of control, in danger of crashing, or both. The blades will continue to spin briefly when throttle hold is activated. Control Tests Ensure the throttle hold is ON when doing the direction control tests.
Understanding the Primary Flight Controls If you are not familiar with the controls of your aircraft, take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with them before attempting your first flight.
Flying the Infusion 180 Hovering Consult your local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft. We recommend flying your aircraft outside in calm winds or inside a large gymnasium. Always avoid flying near houses, trees, wires and buildings. You should also be careful to avoid flying in areas where there are many people, such as busy parks, schoolyards or soccer fields. It is best to fly from a smooth flat surface as this will allow the model to slide without tipping over.
Advanced Tuning (Forward Programming) Applies to forward programming capable Spektrum Transmitters including DX6e, DX8e, DX6G2, DX7G2, DX8G2, DX9, iX12, DX18, iX20, DX20, NX6, NX8, NX10 The Infusion 180 default settings are appropriate for most users. We recommend flying with the default parameters before making any adjustments. The Infusion 180 BNF flight controller may be programmed from any compatible Spektrum transmitter (visit SpektrumRC.com for more information).
Advanced Tuning (Non-Forward Programming) Applies to Spektrum transmitters not capable of forward programing including DX6i, DX6e, DX7s DX8, and DX8e Your Blade Infusion 180 was setup at the factory and test flown. The servo adjustment steps are usually only necessary in special circumstances, such as after a crash or if a servo or linkage is replaced.
Trim Flight Perform this procedure if the model is not performing well or has been recently rebuilt from a crash. The trim flight procedure was performed during the factory test flight and only needs to be performed if you notice the model is not returning to level consistently or if the model does not remain still during stationary pirouettes. The trim flight is used to determine the optimal settings for SAFE® technology during flight. The trim flight must be performed in calm conditions.
Post-Flight Inspection and Maintenance Checklist √ Make sure the plastic ball link holds the control ball, but is not tight (binding) on the ball. When a link is too loose on the ball, it can separate from the ball during flight and cause a crash. Replace worn ball links before they fail. Make sure the battery is not connected before cleaning. Remove dust and debris with a soft brush or a dry, Cleaning lint-free cloth.
Problem Possible Cause Solution The bind plug was not removed from the receiver after binding Less than a 5-second wait between first powering on the transmitter and connecting the flight LED on the receiver flashes battery to the helicopter rapidly and the helicopter The helicopter is bound to a will not respond to the trans- different model memory mitter (after binding) (ModelMatch™ transmitters only) Flight battery or transmitter battery charge is too low Aircraft or transmitter is too close to large
