Install the LiPo Helicopter Battery
With the transmitter turned on and without touching the any of the control sticks, insert the LiPo helicopter battery into the helicopter with the tabs facing
toward the bottom.
Make certain the red light on the bottom of the helicopter inside the canopy is steadily glowing. This indicates that the receiver is receiving a signal from
the transmitter. Proceed to the “Flying” section on page 8. If the red light is fl ashing, refer to the “Binding” procedure that follows.
BIND THE HELICOPTER TO THE TRANSMITTER
When the receiver is able to read signals from the transmitter, the two are said to be “bound.”
Until the receiver in the helicopter is programmed to read the transmitter’s signals, the helicopter
cannot be controlled. Follow the procedure below to bind the receiver to the transmitter:
Disconnect the LiPo battery from the helicopter.
Turn on the transmitter. Lower the throttle control stick all the way down. Adjust the throttle trim
tab until the throttle trim indicator is centered and the
throttle position indicator
reads “000.”
Turn off the transmitter.
Connect the LiPo battery to the helicopter. Turn on the transmitter while pressing inward on the
throttle control stick until the blinking red light in the helicopter remains steady, indicating that the
receiver is reading signals from the transmitter—this should happen within a few seconds.
If it doesn’t work the fi rst time, disconnect the LiPo battery from the helicopter and turn off the
transmitter. Repeat the binding procedure again by reconnecting the LiPo batter and turning on the
transmitter with the throttle stick depressed.
Now the receiver is “bound” to the transmitter and the helicopter is ready to fl y.
