1. Lower the throttle and throttle trim to the lowest settings.
2. Power on the transmitter.
3. Install the flight battery in the battery holder. Connect the battery cable to the 3-in-1 control unit.
NOTICE:
Do not allow the helicopter to move until the blue LED on the 3-in-1 control unit is solid.
NOTICE:
Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the 3-in-1 control unit of the aircraft when not flying. Failure
to do so will render the battery unusable.
Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fly your aircraft.
Select a large, open area
away from people and objects. The Blade mCP X can fly outdoors or indoors in a gymnasium.
CAUTION:
Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the Blade mCP X primary controls before
attempting your first flight. The Blade mCP X is more responsive than other Blade micro helicopters like the
Blade mSR. Seek help from an experienced pilot if you are new to collective pitch helicopters.
Takeoff
Gradually increase the throttle to allow the helicopter time to increase rotor head speed.
CAUTION:
Do not give any aileron, elevator or rudder commands before takeoff or the helicopter may crash.
Flying
The helicopter lifts off the ground when the rotor head reaches a suitable speed. Establish a low-level hover to
verify proper operation of your helicopter. You will not need to set any trim; the flybarless design of the mCP X
renders trim unnecessary.
For pilots new to collective pitch helicopters, familiarize yourself with your mCP X in normal mode. Discover the
rates that fit your flying style.
CAUTION:
Always fly the helicopter with your back to the sun to prevent loss of flight control.
Landing
Establish a low level hover. Slowly lower the throttle until the helicopter lands.
