NOTE: LIGHTS -
The LED labeled wire plugs into a selected channel to operate the light
system.
NOTE:
The BVM factory demo model flew
without Gyro assistance. If you opt to install
a Gyro, be sure to check for proper control
surface corrections. Have the Gyro
activated by a 3 position switch on your
transmitter. Make the first take-off with the
Gyro off until a safe altitude is attained.
First Flight Profile
Make the first flight with the gyro “OFF”.
Flight Time – There is 9+ minutes of fuel on board.
The BVM demo model’s transmitter timer was set for 7 min for a “Top Gun” routine. On the
first flight, land a few minutes early to check fuel consumption. Adjust the flight timer
accordingly.
