The following LED display options are not safety indicators, but only indicate particular operating statuses. 

You will find the LEDs on the control board.

ready to fly

After you have plugged in the flight battery and have not yet started the motors, the green LED lights up 

and the red LED is off. Your RC EYE 450 is ready to operate. If this is not the case, there is a disturbance. 

Please observe the following operating instructions in this chapter.

starting the rC eye 450

Rev  the  motors. The  red  LED  now  lights  up  permanently  and  the  green  LED  flashes. After  approx.  2 

seconds the green LED also lights up permanently. If this is not the case, there is a disturbance. Please 

observe the following operating instructions in this chapter.

Configuration mode

During the configuration of the remote control, the red LED indicates the programme step and the green 

LED indicates the channel to be programmed through corresponding flashing with pauses.

rC offset adjustment

After the flight battery is connected, the red and green LEDs flash quickly and indicate the alignment of the 

transmitter and electronic system of the RC EYE 450. After successful alignment has taken place, the red 

LED goes off and the green LED is permanently lit.

adjustment of the neutral position

If an adjustment to the neutral position is carried out, the green LED flashes quickly. The red LED is off.

The following led display options are safety indicators. The causes for the these must be explored 

and resolved.

faulty radio link before take-off

You want to take off and the engines are still off. The red and the green LEDs flash slowly at the same time 

and indicate a faulty radio link.

Possible causes:

 Receiver crystal has fallen out of the base, receiver crystal is faulty, receiver antenna 

has broken off. Transmitter antenna not pulled out, second transmitter with the same transmitter channel 

switched on/ batteries from transmitter empty. Check the possible causes and restart once more.

Should there be permanent radio interference during flight, the RC EYE 450 will start an emergency landing 

and the LEDs will also indicate a faulty radio link here through simultaneous flashing.
