9. Maintenance and Care
You have to perform regular checks and maintenance work on your model helicopter to ensure its operational safety.
1.
Check if any screws have loosened or components are no longer firmly screwed on.
2.
Check the tooth backlash between the motor pinion and the gear pinion. Particularly check if the motor has come loose
so that the teeth of the two pinions no longer interlock cleanly.
3.
Check the tail rotor drive. All mechanical parts must force-interlock but still have to run smoothly.
4.
Observe clean run of the various shafts. Even slight ground contact of the rotor blades may lead to considerable shaft
deformation.
5.
Check all ball bearings for clean run. Bearings that induce a „rolling" or „crunching" feel when operated manually must
be replaced as well as any visibly damaged ball bearings.
6.
Check the correct and secure fit of the electronics components and the drive battery.
7.
Check all cables. Especially observe the connections between the speed controller and the motor.
Important!
If you have to replace any damaged or worn parts, use only genuine replacement parts in your helicopter.
The spare parts list is located on the website www.conrad.com in the download section for the respective device.
Alternatively, you may also request the spare parts list on the phone. For the contact data, please refer to the top of these
instructions in the chapter „Introduction".
10. Disposal
a) General Information
