Attention: The battery must cool down for 10 to 15 minutes before charging and
after every flight. Failure to do so may result in the battery becoming damaged. The
charging process is electronically monitored, but do not leave it unsupervised .
• Switch off the helicopter and the remote control.
• Carefully insert the charging cable in the charge socket of the helicopter (4A) . The
plug must be gently inserted into the charging socket – DO NOT USE FORCE. If the
plug is not correctly inserted into the charging socket, the helicopter may become
damaged and, under certain circumstances, become an injury risk.
• Switch on the remote control, the power LED is continuously illuminated orange (4B) .
• The charging process is complete as soon as the LED illuminates red.
• Once the charging process has been completed, set the ON/OFF switch to “OFF“ and
disconnect the charging cable from the helicopter.
After a charge time of approx. 50 minutes with the USB charge cable the
helicopter can fly for approx. 6-8 minutes.
You can also charge your helicopter with the accompanying USB cable:
• Switch off the helicopter.
• Carefully insert the charging cable in the charge socket of the helicopter (4C). The
plug must be gently inserted into the charging socket – DO NOT USE FORCE. If the
plug is not correctly inserted into the charging socket, the helicopter may become
damaged and, under certain circumstances, become an injury risk.
• Insert the USB plug in an open USB port.
• The charging process has been completed when the light on the USB plug switches off.
• After the charging process is complete, disconnect the USB plug from the USB port
and the helicopter.
5 STarT PreParaTION
The thrust controller (the left controller on the remote control) must point down before
being switched on
(5A)
. Then set the ON/OFF switch of the remote control to the „ON“
position; the power LED is continuously illuminated red (5B) . Now move the thrust
control to full throttle and back to zero; the power LED then illuminates continuously.
Select the channel A, B or C with the channel selector switch. Now set the ON/OFF
switch on the front side of the helicopter to the „ON“ position
(5C)
.
6 TrIM aDJUSTMeNT OF The CONTrOl
The correct trim is a basic requirement for fault-free flying behaviour of the helicopter.
Its adjustment is simple, but it requires some patience and a feel for it. Please observe
the following instructions precisely: Carefully move the thrust control up and raise the
helicopter approximately 0.5 to 1 metre in altitude.
6A
If the helicopter begins to quickly or
slowly rotate clockwise by itself, rotate
the left/right trim adjustment control
anti-clockwise until the helicopter no
longer rotates by itself.
If the helicopter automatically
rotates clockwise…
If the helicopter begins to quickly or

7 FlIghT CONTrOl
7B Move the thrust control back for
landing or to fly lower. Only minimal
corrections to the controller are
necessary to ensure smoothing flying
of the helicopter!
7D To fly backward, pull the control
back carefully.
7F To fly along a right-handed curve,
carefully move the directional control
to the right, as long as the helicopter
tail is facing toward the pilot.
7A In order to start or gain altitude,
carefully move the thrust control
forward.
7C To fly forward, carefully move the
directional control forward.
7E To fly along a left-handed curve,
carefully move the directional control
to the left, as long as the helicopter
tail is facing toward the pilot.
Up to three pilots can fly their helicopters simultaneously! To do so, proceed as follows:
• Pilot 1 switches his/her remote control on and selects channel A.
• Pilot 1 switches on his/her helicopter. Briefly apply the thrust (2E) and the
helicopter is set to Channel A.
• Pilot 1 sets his/her remote control aside without switching it or the helicopter off. >>
