Before the First Flight (continued)
Moving the stick to the left will roll the helicopter to the left, allowing the helicopter to be flown to the left. Moving
the stick to the right will roll the helicopter to the right, allowing the helicopter to be flown to the right.
The aileron trim can be used to help keep the helicopter from drifting left or right when in hover with no aileron
stick input. For example, if the helicopter drifts to the right when in hover, add left aileron trim until the helicopter
hovers as level as possible with no drifting to the right.
Once you have become familiar with the controls of the helicopter and are ready to fly, it will be time
to choose an area for the first flight. You will want to select a large, open area that is free of people
and obstructions. We recommend an indoor area with at least 20-feet by 20-feet of floor space and
no less than 8-foot ceilings. If you have to make your first flight outdoors, pick a time when wind
conditions are calm.
