To help you get the maximum benefit from your Aurora, we will guide you through a simple set-up of a common collective pitch 
120CCPM heli. The operations shown during this exercise will help you learn many of the basic programming steps required by most of 
the Auroras features.

Channel assignments are; 

#1 Aileron or “roll” cyclic
#2 Elevator or “pitch” cyclic
#3 Throttle
#4 Rudder or tail rotor pitch
#5 Gyro function
#6 Pitch Collective

After installing the servos and accessories in your heli, follow these steps to set-up it up.
