Slowly move the throttle stick (left)
up to make the helicopter take off.
When the helicopter is slightly
floating, slowly move the stick back
to make it land. Gradually increase
the height as you get accustomed
to the controls, and adjust the stick
up and down to get the feeling of
hovering.
* To move the helicopter down, move
the throttle stick back more slowly
than when moving the helicopter up.
* The throttle stick should be moved
in small increments of a few
millimeters. For this operation,
proper training is required.
As a feature of a contra-rotating rotor
helicopter, hovering can be achieved
rather easily.

When the helicopter reaches
hovering, make it rotate at its
position. Move the rudder stick (left)
of the transmitter left or right to
change the direction of the
helicopter. If the helicopter rotates
by itself, adjust the rudder trim to
stop the rotating.

When you get accustomed to the
control of hovering and rotating,
move the forward stick (right) on the
transmitter up to fly the helicopter
forward. The helicopter keeps flying
forward while the stick is moved
up and held in position. To stop it,
move the stick back. The helicopter
cannot smoothly fly forward while it
is rotating. Stop the rotating before
flying the helicopter forward.
If you are comfortable with steps 1 to
, try to conduct two operations at the
same time. After that, you can freely
fly the helicopter by conducting any
combination of operations.
Important:
If the helicopter crashes, immediately
move the throttle stick (left) back,
otherwise damage may result from
idling the main motor.

After use, turn off the switch on the
helicopter, then turn off the transmit-
ter. Be sure to retract the transmitter
antenna.
Important:
This helicopter is equipped with a
feature for monitoring the charge level
of the built-in battery. The LeD lamp
blinks if the charge level becomes low.
Turn off the switch when the LeD lamp
starts blinking. Failure to do so may
adversely affect batteries, resulting in
permanent damage.
V. FLIGHT LOCATION
AND CONDITION
Flight Location
Check that there are no obstacles
around the flight location before flying
the helicopter.
• Fly the helicopter in a safe area away
from roads, other persons and
animals, trees, buildings, overhead
power lines and other obstacles.
• Check that there are no such
obstacles in the surroundings
before flying the helicopter.
Flight Condition
Fly the helicopter on warm days and
calm conditions, since performance
may lag in low temperatures. Avoid
locations exposed to wind, otherwise
the helicopter may become uncontrol-
lable. Do not fly the helicopter in bad
weather (heavy thunderstorms, rain,
sleet, snow, etc.).
Important:
• ensure that a nearby transmitter does
not produce interference or signals
with the same frequency.
• Always supervise the helicopter
in flight.
• Adult supervision is required when
children 12 and older are flying the
helicopter.
• The helicopter is intended for outdoor
use only.
VI. MAINTENANCE
Care and Service
• The life of the helicopter can be
extended with daily care. Wipe
the helicopter clean if dust builds up
and check for any loose parts.
• The helicopter body is made of
polystyrene foam. If damaged, use
scotch tape or suitable adhesives
to repair.
• Never use instant glue which will
make the polystyrene foam dissolve.
• The helicopter may lose balance and
not fly correctly if broken.
