The Optim 300 CP offers two flight modes that enable pilots with varying
degrees of experience to enjoy CP helicopter flight. The first mode is Stable
Mode, which the pilot can turn on by setting the switch on the transmitter
labeled “Stable Mode” to the “ON” position.
In Stable Mode (6-Axis), the helicopter flies like a high performance tradi-
tional CP helicopter, except that there is a stabilizing force which pulls it
toward a neutral hover. As the helicopter moves further from neutral, this
restoring or stabilizing force increases. Thus the helicopter can not become
inverted when Stable Mode is active. When the cyclic stick is released, the
helicopter quickly returns to neutral, making stable mode excellent for low-
time pilots who are not entirely comfortable with traditional CP flight. The
helicopter flies and feels like a CP, but it returns to a stable configuration
when the sticks are released, thus making it easier to avoid crashes.
Stable Mode functions in both normal and inverted flight. It is turned off by
moving the switch on the transmitter to the back, or “OFF” position. When
in “OFF”, the stabilization software is disabled and the helicopter responds
quickly and nimbly to the pilot’s input. In this mode the helicopter does NOT
return to neutral when the cyclic stick is released. If the pilot loses control
in this mode, they can simply flip the Stable Mode switch on the transmitter
back to the “ON” position, to help regain control of the helicopter.
If stability mode is activated when the helicopter is inverted, the helicopter
will return to upright stabilized flight.
Natural Flight Progression
Dual Rate Switch
The DUAL RATE switch adjusts
the control sensitivity of the aileron/
elevator channels. We recommend
that you start in low rates for your
initial flights in stabilized mode and
progress to high rates for 3D stunt
flying.
