Basic information on flying the GALAXY VISITOR 3

Mode 1              Mode 2

 

 

Move the throttle stick for-
ward, and the GALAXY 
VISITOR 3 climbs. Pull it 
back, and the model de-
scends. 

 

 

Move the yaw stick to 
one side, and the GALA-
XY VISITOR 3 rotates in 
the corresponding direc-
tion around the vertical 
axis. 

 

 

If you move the pitch-axis 
stick forward or back, the 
GALAXY VISITOR 3 flies 
in the corresponding di-
rection. 

 

 

If you move the roll stick 
to right or left, the GALA-
XY VISITOR 3 moves in 
the corresponding direc-
tion.

CAUTION:

 only the third illustra-

tion shows the model facing left. 
All the other pictures show the 
model's tail facing the observer. 
Please note that the direction of 
control response changes accor-
ding to the model's flight attitude. 
For example, the pitch-axis and 
roll functions are reversed when 
the model is flying toward the pi-
lot.

CAUTION:

 since magnetic field 

sensors are fitted to the model as 
well as the transmitter, the qua-
drocopter should not be operated 
in the vicinity of powerful magne-
tic fields, such as high-tension 
overhead cables or transformers. 
The model could crash if interfe-
rence affects the magnetic sen-
sors.
