2 FLIGHT CONTROL
Note: Only minimal corrections of the controls are necessary for a smooth flying behaviour of the Quadrocop-
ter! The direction information applies if the Quadrocopter is viewed from behind. If the Quadrocopter is flying
towards the pilot, it must be moved in the opposite direction.
2A
In order to start or gain altitude, carefully move the left hand joystick forward.
Move the left hand joystick back for landing or to fly lower.
2B
To fly forward, carefully move the right hand joystick control forward.
To fly backward, pull the right joystick back carefully.
2C
Curve left by carefully moving the right hand joystick control to the left.
Curve right by carefully moving the right hand joystick control to the right.
2D
To turn the quadrocopter to the left, press the left button.
To turn the quadrocopter to the right, press the right button.
2E Flying loops: BRIEFLY press the Looping key
The next movement with the right control triggers a flip in the corresponding direction.
Make sure that you have sufficient space in ev ery direction (at least 10 m). Also comply with the safety
height – fly at a height of at least 2 m, as your quadrocopter loses height when rolling over and has to be
caught and corrected afterwards! Please note: Looping is more successful when the battery is still relatively
full! Press the nick/roll controller all the way in one direction and then all the way back again.
3 TRIM ADJUSTMENT OF THE CONTROL
The correct trim is a basic requirement for fault-free flying behaviour of the Quadrocopter. 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 Quadrocopter approximately 0.5 to 1 metre in altitude.
3A If the Quadrocopter moves by itself slowly or quickly to the left or right …
Press the roll trim incrementally in the opposite direction.
3C If the Quadrocopter moves by itself slowly or quickly around its own axis …
Land and restart the model and remote control – the trimming takes place automatically.
3B If the Quadrocopter moves by itself slowly or quickly forwards or backwards …
Press the nick trim down incrementally. If the helicopter moves backwards, press the nick trim up incrementally.
BATTERY LEVEL:
• The battery is empty if the model begins to lose thrust. Land in order to avoid crashing.
4 CHANGING THE PROPELLERS
If the Quadrocopter‘s rotor blades are damaged and must be replaced, proceed as follows:
• Before fitting the propellers, make sure they are not mixed up. The Quadrocopter has
4 different propellers, which differ in colour and markings on the bottom:
• Front right: marking A
• Front left: marking B
• Rear right: marking B
• Rear left: marking A
• Carefully pull the defective propeller off the shaft.
• Carefully fit the new propeller onto the shaft again.
