The supplied LiPo battery is mounted inside a cradle on the underside of your
helicopter’s fuselage.
The LiPo battery should be mounted

Your RC helicopter is an easy-to-fly model but, you don’t become an expert pilot

brief Flight Training Program. After all, learning to fly your helicopter is all part of the
enjoyment!

sequence is as follows:
