PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE ESC OF THE 5-IN-1 UNIT. YOU MUST ALSO BE
SURE THAT THE THROTTLE TRIM IS SET TO THE MIDDLE POSITION OR TO
A POSITION THAT IS LOWER THAN THE MIDDLE.
Failure to lower the throttle stick to the lowest possible position in the event
of a crash could result in damage to the ESC in the 5-in-1 unit, which may
require replacement of the 5-in-1 unit.
Note: Crash damage is not covered under warranty.
• Once you have gained experience and confidence in hovering the Blade mSR, you
can attempt more advanced maneuvers including:
Forward Flight
Skidding Takeoffs
Backward Flight
Skidding Landings
Pirouettes
Spot Landings
Advanced Swashplate Settings
The Blade mSR comes with an adjustable precision swashplate. Advanced pilots
may benefit from a more aggressive setup.
The more aggressive setup can be achieved by simply popping off the lower rotor
head links and moving them onto the longer set of inner swashplate control balls.
Precision Swashplate Calibration Tool
The Blade mSR includes a precision swashplate calibration tool. This tool should be
used after every crash or when rebuilding to ensure rotor head/swashplate linkages
are correctly spaced ensuring there is no drag within the pivot points of the rotor
head. Failure to properly calibrate your mSR may result in loss of stability and control
authority.
To use the precision swashplate calibration too:
• Clip on tool as shown on the photos.
• While the tool is in place, push up on the swashplate until the tool is sandwiched
between the swashplate and the upper rotor hub.
• Check to see that the flybar seesaws freely; then remove tool before flight.
