g) Trimming the Quadrocopter
First start the transmitter, then the model.
Push the pitch lever (also see figure 1, item 8) from the bottom position (motors off) carefully forward and observe the
response of your model. Shortly before the quadrocopter starts hovering, you can already determine in which direction
your model wants to move.
Roll trimming
If the quadrocopter tries to drift or tip to the right, reduce the speed until the quadrocopter is standing safely on its
landing struts again. Push the left trim button for the roll function several times (also see figure 1, item 6).
Push the pitch stick carefully forward and check if the adjustment was sufficient. Repeat the procedure until the model
does not show any tendency to drift to the right.
If the quadrocopter drifts to the left, push the right trim button for the roll function.
Every time the button is pushed, the trim is adjusted by one step and the adjustment is confirmed by a brief
signal. If the button is pushed and held, the transmitter will continually emit a sequence of signals to indicate
graduals adjustment of the trim. When the final position of the trim is reached, the transmitter no longer emits
any sounds.
Up to 32 trim steps are available in either direction. The trim middle setting is indicated by a longer signal
sound.
