WARNING! While in Expert Mode, it is even more important to use slow, smooth
control inputs to prevent crashing your helicopter. Do not attempt flying in Expert
Mode until you can confidently control the model in Normal Mode. Personal injury or
product damage may result. The helicopter will react more quickly to control inputs, fly more
aggressively, and will be capable of faster flight. Experts only!
Customizing The Controls
The speed of each control, except the throttle, can be adjusted independently. Once you have
selected a control, you can increase its value (more directional speed) or reduce its value (less
directional speed). Follow these steps to select and adjust each control.
Please note that the first programming option is servo reversing, indicated by SE.
Skip
this setting to avoid accidentally reversing the model’s controls.
When adjusting the controls in Normal mode, the trim displays will show three flashing
dots and the red LED will be on solid. In Expert mode, five flashing dots will be displayed
and the red LED will be blinking. The Elevator stick may be depressed at any time during
programming to access the Normal and Expert Mode settings.
