TABLE OF CONTENTS
This assembly manual and setup guide is designed to guide you through the entire assembly and setup process of your new helicopter
in the least amount of time possible. Along the way you'll learn how to properly assemble your new helicopter and also learn tips that
will help you in the future. We have listed some of our recommendations below. Please read through them before beginning assembly.
●
Please read through each step before beginning assembly.
You should nd the layout very complete and straightforward.
Our goal is to guide you through assembly without any of the
headaches and hassles that you might expect.
●
There are check boxes next to each procedure. After you
complete a procedure, check off the box. This will help prevent
you from losing your place.
●
Cover your work table with brown paper or a soft cloth, to protect
both the table and the parts.
●
Keep a couple of small bowls or jars handy to put the small parts
in after you open the accessory bags.
●
We're all excited to get a new helicopter in the air, but take your
time. This will ensure that you don't miss any assembly steps
and that your helicopter is set up correctly for its rst ight.
INTRODUCTION
This R/C helicopter is not a toy! If misused or abused, it can cause serious bodily injury and/or damage to property. Fly only in
open areas and preferably at a dedicated R/C ying site. We suggest having an experienced pilot carefully inspect your helicopter
before its rst ight. Please carefully read and follow all instructions included with this helicopter, your radio control system and any
other components purchased separately.
l
Just because the Cypher 3D EP is small and powered by an electric motor doesn't mean that you shouldn't exercise caution when
ying and operating it. You must use the same amount of caution during use as when ying and operating a glow-powered
helicopter.
l
We strongly suggest that when you rst begin ying the Cypher 3D EP that you perform only basic manoeuvres, until you are more
familiar with the setup and ight characteristics of the helicopter. This will give you time to feel comfortable with the way the helicopter
reacts to control inputs and power.
l
You must be cautious when plugging the battery into the helicopter. Unlike glow-powered helicopters that use a clutch assembly
to allow the engine to idle without the rotor blades spinning, an electric helicopter features no such clutch. You must be sure that
your transmitter is turned on and the power/collective control stick is in the full idle (throttle closed) position before plugging in the
battery. This will prevent any chance of the rotor blades spinning and harming you while plugging in the battery.
l
To prevent unwanted radio signals from interfering with your transmitter and receiver, always turn on the transmitter rst, then plug
in the battery. After ying, always unplug the battery rst, then turn off the transmitter.
