The battery pack features a protection circuit to prevent damage and reduce the risk of a
fire if misused. In this protection circuit there is overcharge prevention, when the battery
is fully charged (12.6 Volts actual voltage) this circuit turns on and will prevent the
battery from being charged again until it is depleted adequately. With this circuit on there
is a drop of approximately 0.6 volts in the displayed voltage so when the battery is
actually at 12.6 Volts it will only display 12.0 volts on the controller display screen. This
circuit will stay on and prevent charging until the actual voltage reaches approximately
11.9 volts (11.3 displayed voltage).
If your battery is near the lower voltage and you attempt to recharge you may get “[8]
Failure Output Circuit” reading. This is the protection circuit working, if you deplete the
hand held controller a little further, probably a couple of flights, the circuit will turn off
and you will be able to charge again. Alternatively you could use the discharge feature of
the charger to accomplish this
.
A full-charged battery will display around 12.4V on the handheld controller’s screen.
Never let the voltage go below 11.0V. Consider charging once you see 11.3V. Never leave
the handheld controller charging unattended. Never leave the controller turned on when
not in use.
Control Sticks:
The two large joysticks are your primary helicopter controls.
The Left joystick controls the throttle by moving it forwards; all the way down is
maximum descend rate, all the way up is maximum climb rate. The left stick also
controls heading. The throttle stick is spring loaded and will default to the neutral or
center position. Sideways deflection of the left joystick stick rotates (yaw) the helicopter
left (counter-clockwise when looking at the helicopter from above), and vice versa.
The Right joystick is for controlling helicopter movement forward or backward (pitch)
and left or right movement (roll). Moving the joystick forward gives you forward
movement and moving the joystick back gives backward movement on the pitch axis.
Moving the same joystick to the left gives left movement and to the right gives right
movement on the roll axis.
More information about the joysticks is found in the Flight Modes sections.
Switches:
Above the left joystick (throttle) there are two switches, the switch on the right is the
Flight Mode switch.
Up position is on GPS Hold mode on . Middle position is Altitude
Hold. Down is Altitude Hold).
The switch to the left of the Flight Mode switch is the Rotor – Engage/Disengage switch.
Pressing the toggle switch up engages the motors to turn once the helicopter has been
