Motor Test
Place the helicopter outdoors on a clean, fl at and level
surface (concrete or asphalt) free of obstructions. Always
stay clear of moving rotor blades.

motor will emit a series of tones after the helicopter's
ESC has armed properly.
WARNING: The motor will spin when the throttle is
increased while TH HOLD is OFF.

Pre-Flight Checklist

❏ Check all screws and ensure that they are tight
❏ Check belt tension and ensure that it is not too tight or
too loose
❏ Check main and tail blades to ensure they are not damaged
❏ Check all links and make sure they move freely but do
not pop off easily
❏ Check that the transmitter and fl ight batteries are fully
charged

Flying the Blade Fusion 360

Consult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fl y your aircraft.
Select a large, open area away from people and objects.
Your fi rst fl ights should be outdoors in low-wind conditions.
Always stay at least 30 feet (10 meters) away from the
helicopter when it is fl ying.
The Blade Fusion 360 is intended to be fl own outdoors by
experienced pilots.
Takeoff
Deliberately increase throttle and establish a hover
at least 24" (0.6 meter) high, outside of ground effect.
CAUTION: Making large inputs to the roll or pitch
controls while the helicopter is on the ground
may result in a crash.
Flying
The helicopter lifts off the ground when the rotor head
reaches a suitable speed. Establish a low-level hover to
verify proper operation of your helicopter.
First fl ights should be performed in normal mode and low
cyclic and rudder dual rates until you are familiar with the
fl ying manner of the Blade Fusion 360.
CAUTION: Always fl y the helicopter with your back to
the sun and the wind to prevent loss of fl ight control.

WARNING: Stay at least 30 feet (10 meters) away
from the helicopter when the motor is running. Do
not attempt to fl y the helicopter at this time.
2. Ensure the throttle is lowered completely. Confi rm
the transmitter is still set to normal fl ight mode. Turn
throttle hold OFF to enable throttle control. Slowly
increase the throttle until the blades begin to spin. The
main blades spin clockwise when viewing the helicopter
from the top. The tail rotor blades spin counterclockwise
when viewing the helicopter from the right-hand side.
❏ Check all wires to ensure that they are not cut, pinched,
or chaffed and are properly secured
❏ Check all wire connections
❏ Check gears and make sure no teeth are missing
❏ Make sure fl ight battery is properly secured
❏ Make sure the receiver is properly secured
❏ Perform a complete control test
❏ Verify the fl ight controller is correcting in the proper directions
❏ Check that servos are functioning properly
Landing
Establish a low level hover. Deliberately lower the throttle
until the helicopter lands.
When the helicopter is in stunt mode:
• The rotor head speed is constant.
• The main rotor will increase negative pitch as the
throttle/collective stick is moved from the middle stick
position to the low stick position. Negative pitch allows
the helicopter to fl y upside down and perform aerobatics.
Change between stunt and idle up modes in a hover with
the throttle near the hovering stick position.
WARNING: Do not use wooden main blades with
the Blade Fusion 360. Injury and/or property
damage could occur. Only use Blade Fusion 360
replacement carbon fi ber main blades.
