So – you’ve pulled the helicopter out of the box, have flipped through the manual and thought:
“Too many words… lots of buttons... I don’t know where to start”
Fair enough. Helicopters are complex things. So, we’ve prepared this quick guide.
Here’s what you’ve gotta do:
1. Read and obey all warnings and directions in this manual and on the packaging. We wrote
it because we mean it!
2. Insert batteries into the controller. Use 6 high quality alkaline AAs.
3. Grab the charging lead in the controller and pop it (gently) into the charging socket on the helicopter.
Ensure that the helicopter is turned OFF.
4. Turn the remote control ON. Leave it there for just over half an hour, then pull it out.
5. Turn the helicopter ON. You’ll see some LEDs light up.
6. Move the left control stick from minimum to maximum and back to minimum.
7. Fly!
Controlling the Helicopter
Moving up / down: Use the left stick on the remote control.
Turning Left / Right: Move the right stick left or right.
Moving forward / back: Move the right stick forward or back.
Adjusting Trim:
Rudder: Use the rudder trim adjustment knob, centre of controller.
Adjusts the helicopters turning/spinning.
What is this “trim” thingy?
If the helicopter is turning when you don’t want it to, then you need to adjust the trim.
Basically, it makes fine adjustments to the rotor speeds, and allows you to fine tune the helicopter’s
sense of direction.
