RC-TEK Ltd. SJM400 II Reference Manual
Pre Flight Checks:
1. As a precautionary avoidance to frequency interference (two different helicopters utilizing the same frequency), it is important to keep the remote controllers and heli-
copters apart for at least a distance of 0.5 miles. In order to prevent encounters from occurring; Please make sure the surrounding areas (the flight area) are not
populated with crowdsand or buildings (look for open space). Any open space vicinity should be at least 100 feet in all directions.
2. Make sure the battery is completely charged. Read carefully the suggested charging time and maintenance procedures listed in the instruction manual.
Attempted flight without a fully charged battery will result in an unexpected loss of power, directional control and or costly accidental crashes. Remember,
by
NOT
discharging the battery during usage, you will maintain its efficiency and increase its life span.
3. You are now ready to turn
ON
both the transmitter (remote control) and the receiver (located on the helicopter). Make sure the helicopter is placed on a flat leveld sur-
face on the ground before commencing. Always turn on the transmitter (remote control)
FIRST
before turning on the receiver.
4. Test and confirm the directional controls are working properly. Try moving the directional stick and study the resulting effects of the helicopter. If no
resulting movement is noticed when moving the directional stick, do not attempt flight; as either the helicopter or remote control may be defective.
5. Before any test flight, it is recommended to tiethe helicopter model to a fixed restraint mechanism under safe conditions and then gradually increase its
power, making the helicopter perform various movements frequently till at least one battery is used up in order to make sure all parts fit properly. Then
carefully check the helicopter to see if there are any screws loose and make any needed adjustments.
The following lists the most recommended methods for a beginner to commence their journeys into the remote control flying realm (listed in the order of importance):
1. Find an experienced Instructor - most likely can be found at your local hobby store.
2. Join an RC club in your nearby area - can be found through the internet, hobby stores, parks and friends (word of mouth)
3. Make sure you are standing directly behind the helicopter before any attempted flight.
4. Slowly introduce power to the helicopter in a continuous and stable pace.
5. Analyze carefully the characteristics of the helicopter. As more power is introduced, the helicopter will begin its ascension progress. Make directional
adjustments to counter and insure linear ascending or decending path.
6. Make sure never to exceed a flying height of over 2 feet! Anything over the recommended height can and may cause major damage to the helicopter
if crashed.
