With the rotors spinning at a low level of power, move the rudder stick slightly to
the right. This should cause the speed of the tail rotor to increase.
Next, move the rudder stick all the way to the left. This should cause the speed
of the tail rotor to decrease. If the tail rotor is not properly responding to rudder
input, simply reverse the rudder channel on the transmitter. However, please be
sure to review the following sections of the manual BEFORE proceeding with the
first flight.
Note: Attempting to fly the helicopter without completely reading the
manual may cause injury to yourself and people in the vicinity, as
well as damaging the helicopter.
Understanding the Primary Flight Controls
If you are not familiar with the controls of your Blade mSR, please take a
few minutes to familiarize yourself with them before attempting your first
flight.
When the throttle stick is in the lowest possible position and throttle trim is set to the
middle or a lower-than-middle position, the main rotor blades will not spin. Advancing
the stick upward will increase the speed of the main rotor blades. Increasing the
speed of the main rotor blades will cause the model to climb.
Mode 1
Mode 2
Climb
Decreasing the speed of the main rotor blades by lowering the throttle stick will
cause the model to descend.
Mode 1
Mode 2
Descend
After lifting the model off the ground you can balance the throttle by carefully moving
the throttle stick up and down so the model will hold a stationary hover without
climbing or descending.
