Installing the Flight Battery 1. Lower the throttle. 2. Power on the transmitter. 3. Center the throttle trim. 4. To allow the ESC to arm and to keep rotors from initiating at startup, turn on throttle hold and normal flight mode before connecting the flight battery. 5. Attach hook material to the helicopter frame and loop material to the battery. 6. Install the flight battery on the helicopter frame. Secure the flight battery with a hook and loop strap. Connect the battery cable to the ESC.
Control Tests CAUTION: You must complete the Rudder and Cyclic tests prior to flight. Failure to complete the tests ensuring the sensor directions are not reversed can cause the helicopter to crash, resulting in property damage and injury. Rudder 1. Power on the transmitter. 2. Turn TH HOLD ON and put transmitter in normal mode. 3. Connect the helicopter battery to the ESC. 4. Move the rudder stick to the right. The tail rotor blades move as shown.
Motor WARNING: Stay at least 30 feet (10 meters) away from the helicopter when the motor is running. Do not attempt to fly the helicopter at this time. Re-connect the motor wires to the ESC prior to attempting the motor test. Place the helicopter outdoors on a clean, flat and level surface (concrete or asphalt) free of obstructions. Always stay clear of moving rotor blades. 1. The motor beeps twice when the helicopter’s ESC arms properly. Before you continue, confirm that TH HOLD is ON. 3.
Gyro Gain Adjustment • If the tail wags or oscillates, lower the gain on the gyro. • If the tail is drifting while hovering, increase the gain on the gyro. On your transmitter’s gyro menu, decrease the gyro gain values a small amount at a time until the helicopter is stable within a particular flight mode. On your transmitter, increase the gyro gain values a small amount at a time until the tail starts to wag/oscillate.
Problem Helicopter power is lacking Helicopter will not lift off The helicopter tail spins out of control The helicopter wobbles in flight Possible Cause Flight battery has low voltage Flight battery is old or damaged Flight battery cells are unbalanced Excessive current is being drawn through the BEC Tail drive belt tension is not correct Main rotor head is not spinning in the correct direction Transmitter settings are not correct Flight battery has low voltage Main rotor blades are installed backward
