FLIGHT OPERATION
Switching on the model
Ensure sufficient space in order to undertake the first flight
experiments. Even if the indoor helicopter can later be flown in the
smallest quarters, it requires about 3 m free space in all directions.
• Set the model on a smooth and level surface, so that the heli-
copter can freely glide and lift off.
• Set the helicopter about 2 m in front of yourself on the ground,
the tail pointing towards you. This way the direction of reac-
tion of the helicopter conforms to the direction of control.
• Pull the left remote control lever (pitch) totally back.
Now the model may not be moved!
• After a few seconds the model is ready to launch.
• Move the left control lever slightly forward, until the model just
lifts off from the ground.
• Pull the control lever slowly back again, so that the model gently
alights.
Move the control extremely delicately!
Hover flight
Hover flight means maintaining the helicopter in a stable posi-
tion in the air. Hover flight is only possible with a helicopter and
must be thoroughly practiced as a fundamental flight formation.
Acquaint yourself with the control functions of your remote control
transmitter so that this procedure gets you're your "flesh and
blood".
• Then set the helicopter about 2 m in front of you on the ground,
with the tail facing you.
• Leave the helicopter on the ground and first deliberately move
it slightly sidewise, forwards and backwards.
• When you have mastered control on the ground, give somewhat
more lift and permit it to hover above the ground, without
allowing the tip of the fuselage to turn or the helicopter to drift
away.
• The best procedure is to mark a position on the ground from
which you start the model. Attempt to hold the helicopter
above this position and also to land again on this position.
• Do not move the control lever too jerkily, because otherwise
especially the touchdown can be very hard. Develop a feeling
for the controls by repeatedly lifting off, floating and landing
again.

Attention!
Switch the transmitter on first. After that, connect the freshly
charged airplane battery.
• If you notice irregularities in the control or an imbalance in the
rotor, land immediately and correct the necessary settings.
• Increase the flying height gradually by degrees.
