PROBLEM
SOLUTION
PRE-FLIGHT ENVIRONMENT CHECK
Fl
ying Indoors?
Location – Fly in a wide-open room, f
ar away from breakable items. An empty double car garage or unfinished basement are
g
reat options. Avoid flying near vents and/or fans, as these may overpower the helicopter and make it difficult to control.
NO
TE:
Alw
ays get a parent’s permission to fly your Helix
TM
indoors
.
Fl
ying Outdoors?
1. Location – Fly in a wide open grassy location that it is free of buildings, trees, overhead wires and other obstructions.
Do not fly near people or animals.
2. Weather – Fly on mild, sunny days. Do not fly in electrical storms, rain, sleet, snow or other adverse weather conditions.
Do not fly if the temperature is below 45°F/7°C. In very cold temperatures, the helicopter will become fragile and the engine
performance will decrease.
3. Wind Conditions – Do not fly in wind. Winds may overpower the helicopter and make it difficult to control. In windy conditions,
it may appear as though you have no control over the helicopter.
WARNING: Never fly near your face. Keep rotors away from your fingers, hair, eyes and other body parts. Always lift off from
a flat surface. Never hold the helicopter in your hand when lifting OFF. Always store the helicopter in its original container to avoid
bending the rotors.
NOTE: Regardless whether you’re flying indoors or outside, make sure that the batteries are in working order.
