Gyro gain. The left trimmer (GAIN) adjusts
the amount of gyro tail stabilisation from 0 to
100%. The gyro automatically stabilises the
tail against torque changes and gusts. 90%
is usually the best setting.
▼
Mix gain. The right trimmer
(PROPORTIONAL) adjusts throttle/tail mixing
from 0 to 100% and is very uncritical. 90% is
usually the best setting.
WARNING!
This unit contains delicate electronics. If your
model tips over or crashes when flying or if your
Twister CP V2.1 motors are physically stalled and
prevented from turning, you must immediately
reduce throttle to avoid damage to the speed
controllers and other components.
Crash damage and motor stall damage is not
covered by warranty.
2. ROTOR BLADES CHECK
▼
Unfold the main rotors to the flying position
as per the above pic ensuring they are
exactly perpendicular to the flybar and
paddles and that they are not damaged.
3. VISUAL CHECK
▼
Check that all linkages and connectors are
attached and that rotating parts are free to
rotate smoothly.
▼
Check that all linkages move freely with no
binding or stiffness. Free off any linkages
that show any level of tightness or binding.
4. SWITCH ON TRANSMITTER
The transmitter is supplied in Mode II version where
the left stick controls height (climb or descent) and
tail rotor (yaw left or right). The right stick operates
the cyclic steering controls, which are used to
pitch the helicopter nose up/nose down and to roll
the helicopter left or right. Note that the included
DVD shows the use of a Mode I (throttle right)
transmitter. See pic following for Mode II layout
with throttle stick on the left side .
▼
1. Move the throttle stick and throttle trim of
your transmitter to the lowest (low throttle)
position.
▼
2. Centre the trim controls for the 3 other
transmitter functions.
▼
3. Extend the transmitter aerial fully.
▼
4. Switch on the transmitter.
▼
5. Check that the receiver aerial is unwrapped
ENTIRELY from its stowed location around
the right side undercarriage
(tape the aerial
along one of the undercarriage skids and
then tape to rear fin).
▼
6. To power up the helicopter, you must
connect the JST battery connector to the
matching lead emerging from the ‘4-in-1’
control unit.
Do this now - ensuring you are well clear of
main and tail rotors and that throttle stick
and trim are in the low position.
▼
7. Observe the ‘4-in-1’ status LED. Initially,
it will blink red, then blink green. After
the on-board computer has completed
satisfactory systems checks, it will glow
green continuously.
Do not move the helicopter during this checking
and calibration process.
WARNING!
Keep hands, clothing, eyes, animals and children
well clear when connecting power to this model
or flying it!
WARNING!
Do not operate this model with a collapsed or
partially collapsed transmitter (or receiver) aerial.
The model may suffer from interference and may
endanger your personal safety! Always extend
aerials fully. Never tape an aerial to any carbon
fibre helicopter components.
