User Manual

ﬂ ight modes, press down on the right control stick and release it. When the

transmitter is changed to low rates, the ellipse in the lower center of the LCD

screen will show a half ellipse and emit a single low pitch single beep. When

changed to high rates, the ellipse will be complete and the transmitter will

emit a single high pitch beep.

Flight Control Sensitivity

You can change the overall sensitivity of the TX465 transmitter. To do this, press

and hold the right stick down. When the transmitter starts to beep continuously,

move the throttle up or down to adjust the sensitivity percentage which will

be indicated on the LCD screen. A higher value will make the controls more

sensitive. When you have the desired setting, release the right stick and

return the throttle to 0%. We have found that 30% is good all-around setting.

Warning: If this value gets bumped to 0 your quadcopter will respond very

slowly to any right stick input.

Beginner (Normal) & Expert Flight Modes

When the 230Si is in the Beginner (stability) ﬂ ight mode, the control board will

apply “Braking” to level the quadcopter and return it to a hover whenever the

right control stick is centered. The Expert mode disables the accelerometers

to make the quadcopter more agile.

To toggle between these two modes, move the throttle to the 0% position

and hold the right stick to the left and down as far as possible for 5 seconds.

The Status LED will turn off and come back after two seconds to indicate that

the quadcopter is in the Beginner ﬂ ight mode. When the Status LED stays

off until the right stick is released, the quadcopter is in the Expert mode.

Altitude Control Management

The 230Si has three different throttle settings which are controlled by the F

Mode button. The Status LED will ﬂ ash rapidly three times, turn off for a

second, and then ﬂ ash to indicate which mode has been selected. Changing

the Altitude Control mode should only be done when the quadcopter is on

the ground with the throttle at 0%.

Limited Altitude Mode is selected when the Status

LED ﬂ ashes rapidly three times, is off for a second,

and then remains steady. In this mode, the maximum

height that the 230Si can climb to is around 10 feet. This mode is good for

indoor use where the ceiling is usually less than 10 feet. This mode offers

limited throttle control that will make the quadcopter easier for beginning

pilots to ﬂ y.
