the throttle/collective stick position when the flight mode switch is set to the stunt position . You must exercise
extreme care and caution when switching the throttle hold switch to the off position . You should always be in the
normal flight mode and have the throttle/collective stick set to the lowest possible position BEFORE switching
throttle hold off .
Before the First Flight
Although each Blade CP Pro 2 PNP model is factory assembled and tested, you should check the following before
making your first flight .
q
Check the security of all screws on your model . Tighten any screws that may be loose and replace any screws
or other parts that may be stripped .
q
Check to be sure that the screws securing the main rotor blades in the blade grips are tightened so the blades
can pivot in the grips when moderate pressure is applied .
Never allow the main blades to swing freely in
their grips.
q
Check the security of all the plastic ball link ends on your model . The links should stay attached to the control/
linkage balls even when moderate force is applied . Any link that does not stay attached to the control/linkage
ball should be replaced before flight .
q
Check to be sure that all electronic equipment and wire leads are secure and will not come into contact with any
moving parts .
q
If this is the first test flight, or a test flight following repairs, you will also want to center the rudder, aileron and
elevator trims .
Your Blade CP Pro 2 PNP is now ready for flight .
Choosing a Flying Area
When you are ready for your first flight, you will want to select a large, open area that is free of people and
obstructions . Until you have properly trimmed, adjusted and become familiar with the handling of the Blade CP Pro
2 PNP, we suggest that your first and subsequent test flights be made outdoors in CALM air only .
While it is possible for the Blade CP Pro 2 PNP to be flown indoors, we suggest that it only be in a very large
indoor facility such as a gym that is also free of people and obstructions . The Blade CP Pro 2 PNP is not intended
to be flown in small indoor areas or facilities where it may be possible to fly a coaxial helicopter like the Blade CX
or Blade CX2 .
Throttle Hold
Your chosen transmitter should feature a Throttle Hold switch . This switch allows you to toggle between Throttle
Hold OFF and Throttle Hold ON .
NOTE:
HP6DSM Transmitter is shown for reference only .
When throttle hold is off, the transmitter will be in the normal or stunt flight mode (depending on where the flight
mode switch is set) . When throttle hold is on, the helicopter will be in the throttle hold flight mode . In this flight
mode, the throttle should always be set to 0% . In the case of an electric-powered model like the Blade CP Pro 2,
this will power down the 2-in-1 Unit ESC/motors completely .
Toggling the throttle hold switch to the on position also allows you to safely power down the 2-in-1 Unit ESC/
motors any time the helicopter is not flying . This is particularly helpful as it allows you to safely handle the
helicopter, while the 2-in-1 unit ESC is still armed, regardless of the throttle/collective stick and flight mode switch
positions .
NOTE:
If the throttle hold switch is in the on position, and the throttle/collective stick set to anything above
the lowest possible position with the flight mode switch set to the normal position, the 2-in-1 Unit ESC/motors
will power up as soon as the throttle hold switch is set to the off position . This is also the case regardless of
