Take off and fl y
Before you begin please check:
• WARNING: Only start with a suffi ci-
ently full transmitter batteries (batteries-) and
fully charged fl ight battery –
crash hazard!
• Check all parts for damage and dirt. Repla-
ce any damaged parts and clean the model,
because dirt increases the weight and there-
fore can degrade the fl ying qualities.
• Check all steering lines for damage and cor-
rect installation (especially twisting).
• Switch on the transmitter and then the PA-
RACOPTER. Note: the PARACOPTER is
protected against unintentional starting of
the motor when turning ON to avoid the risk
of injury. To activate the motor, the throttle
must moved once all the way up and then
moved back to the lower position. If the
lower position is
correct (motor off)
a short beep will
sound. Only now
the PARACOPTER
responds to your
commands.
• Check the motor
and servo func-
tions.
Start - Hand launching:
• ATTENTION: Observe the wind direction! Start always against the wind direction!
• Place yourself at a 45 ° angle against the wind (Figure 1).
• Hold the PARACOPTER centered at the bottom of the chassis (2) and move the arm with a uniform circu-
lar motion upwards. When the parachute is fully deployed, give full throttle (3).
• Do not move the model further up (4), release the model if it is above your head (5).
• Note: Do not move jerkily or throw the model, because the parachute will not unfold properly (6)!
