Draganflyer X8 Helicopter/Controller Range Test
The simple method of testing the controller and helicopter for range is to turn on the
handheld controller and power up the helicopter but do not arm it. Observe the blink rate
of the LEDs on the helicopter. Now increase the throttle, the LEDs should blink at a
quicker rate, throttle down the controller. Walk approximately 60 paces away from the
helicopter and then increase the throttle again, the blink rate should increase as before. If
the blink rate does not increase proportionately with the throttle increase, you are not
getting the correct response and you should not attempt to fly the helicopter.
Antenna orientation; for best reception it is best if the ends of antennas on the
Draganflyer X8 transmitter are not pointed directly at the helicopter as you are flying
it. The antennas are hinged to allow them to be adjusted off of a direct line.
Recommended Operational Guidelines
General
1. Be aware of and abide by remote controlled aircraft regulations applicable to the
