Switching on the model
Ensure suf
Þ
cient space in order to undertake the
Þ
rst
ß
ight experiments
.
Even if the indoor helicopter can later be
ß
own in the smallest
quarters, it requires about 3m free space in all directions.
- Set the model on a smooth and level surface, so that the
helicopter can freely glide and lift off.
- Set the helicopter about 2m in front of yourself on the
ground, the tail pointing towards you.
This way the direction of reaction of the helicopter
conforms to the direction of control.
-
Unwind the receiver antenna completely
and fasten
the aerial wire with an adhesive strip to the fuselage for traction relief.
-
Pull the transmitter antenna totally out.
The effective range of the remote control is reduced if the antenna is not completely pulled out.
- Pull the left remote control lever (pitch) totally back.
- Take care that the pitch function of the trim lever is approximately in the middle position.
-
Switch the transmitter on.
- Bring all control levers into the neutral position.
- Move the left control lever slightly forward,
until the model just lifts off from the ground.
- Pull the control lever slowly back again, so that the model gently alights.
Move the control extremely delicately!
Check the effective range of the remote control transmitter
Before every
Þ
rst start or after a crash, check the function and effective range of the RC equipment!
In the neutral position of the control lever of nick and roll, the wobble plate should also be in neutral position.
If this is not the case, correct the position with the trim levers of the respective control channel on the transmitter.
- Move slowly away from the model (motor is not running!).
-
Consecutively press the remote control levers nick and roll and
- observe the reactions of the model.
The RC equipment works faultlessly if from about 30 m distance the model still correctly responds to the remote control
signals. The maximum range of the transmitter is about 100 m.
Never fly the model if the remote control does not work properly!
A malfunction of the radio may cause damage to the model, property and/or serious injury.
Trimming the helicopters
Already shortly before the helicopter takes off, you can recognize whether it wants to turn or glide in a particular direction.
Correct the deviations from the vertical ascent with the trim slider of the tail function.
Tip of the fuselage turns to the right:
- Reduce speed and push the
trim slider of the tail function
on the left remote control
lever stepwise to the left.
- Push the pitch-lever forward again and check whether the correction was suf
Þ
cient, if
necessary shift the trim further to the left.
- Repeat the process until the helicopter no longer shows a tendency to turn to the right.
Tip of the fuselage turns to the left:
- Proceed as described above, but push the trim slider of the tail function stepwise to the
right.
