Transmitter
Always turn the Transmitter on first and then with the EQ.45 sitting still plug the battery into the ESC. The helicopter will
need to sit still for 10 seconds so the gyro can initialize and can determine centre. If the EQ.45 is moved during this
initialization, then the gyro will not operate properly. There is a safety built into the EQ.45 that prevents the motor from
activating unless the collective stick has been lowered to its lowest position. If the motor won't run and turn the main
blades, please make sure the collective stick is all the way down and leave it there for a couple of seconds. Then try
raising the stick slowly.
Transmitter Controls
All controls described are defined with the tail
pointing directly towards you. This is the best way to
start out since it keeps the control inputs orientated
the same. Once you start getting comfortable you can
work on side hovering and nose in.
Trainer System
- You can use a cable to connect
two transmitters together and an instructor can take
and give control back with the release of a switch. Be
careful not to hit this switch while in flight as it
disables the transmitter output.
The idle up switch is used for forward flight and
aerobatics. It raises the main rotor RPM and also
changes the lowest position on the throttle stick to
around 40% throttle. This allows the EQ.45 to
perform aerobatics and inverted flight. This can be a
dangerous switch since it raises the throttle.
Be
extremely careful not to hit this switch
accidentally or the motor will instantly come on to
at least 40% power.
