BASIC MANEUVERS
BASIC MANEUVERS
Once you are comfortable with hovering in one place start working on orientations.
By this we mean, hover the helicopter in all positions, nose to the right, nose to
the left and the nose pointing at you (nose-in). Getting good at this fundamental
discipline will allow you to progress much faster in some of the more advanced
flying maneuvers.
Slow Pirouettes
By moving the left stick, left or right, you can rotate the helicopter around 360,°
which is called a pirouette.
Forward Flight
Now it’s time to work into basic forward flight. Just take the basic hovering
maneuvers listed above and slowly fly out farther and faster and always bring
the helicopter back after one pass. Practice controlled slow flight in close as
well. The more time you spend practicing here, the easier things will be later on.

POST-FLIGHT PROCEDURES
POST-FLIGHT PROCEDURES
Unplug and remove the battery from the helicopter. Allow it to cool to room
temperature and recharge it. Never leave the battery connected to the 200FP
V-Cam after the fl ight is completed.
If the model is to be stored for a long time period, please remove the batteries
from the transmitter to avoid damage to the contacts. If storing the model for
several weeks, the batteries for the helicopter should be charged to 50% of a
full charge and checked after 3 to 4 months.

Dual Rates
The transmitter has a dual rate function.
This feature toggles between a fl ight
mode that reduces the model’s range of
motion to make the 200FP V-Cam easer
to fl y and one that allows the full range
of motion so the helicopter can be fl own
outside in mild winds. To toggle between
these two fl ight modes, press down on the right control stick and release it. When
