Before the First Flight (continued)
• After ensuring that the rods are secure in the base, adjust the positions of the attachments on the landing skids
so that the base is centered under the main shaft of the helicopter. Once confirming the base is centered under
the main shaft, make sure that each of the landing skids is still firmly installed in the mounts of the battery
supports. Note that the landing skids may be pulled slightly inward under pressure of the training gear rods.
• With the attachments, rods and base properly positioned, you can now tighten the attachment screws until they
are just snug. Take care when tightening the screws to prevent stripping the backside of the attachments.
• Adjust the position of the tubing keepers and plastic balls on the training gear rods so that the balls are
positioned approximately 1/8” from the end of each rod. Be sure that the tubing keepers are positioned so that
the plastic ball can still spin freely on the rod.
Your Blade™ CX is now ready for flight.
