Gyro hovering at a particular height, without rotating, you can deliberately alter the orientation
of the fuselage (and therefore the possible direction of fl ight) using the direction control (right
stick). The forward / back control (right stick again) is used to accelerate or brake the model in
this direction; the helicopter is even capable of fl ying slowly backwards. By combining all the
stick functions the model can be controlled in a similar manner to a 'real' helicopter.
Landing, terminating fl ight operations
The Pico Star 1 Gyro can be landed simply by gradually moving the left-hand stick back to-
wards you. After the landing the main switch on the model must fi rst be moved to the "OFF"
position, and only then the transmitter can be switched off.
Note: towards the end of a fl ight the model will become increasingly unstable due to the decli-
ning battery voltage. When this happens you must land the model and recharge the battery.
Fault-fi nding
•
After the initial charge you may fi nd that the fl ight battery does not give its full capacity, resul-
ting in reduced fl ight times. The LiPo pack only reaches its full performance after a few
charge / discharge cycles.
After a fl ying session
•
At the end of a fl ying session the model should be replaced in its original packaging to avoid
the danger of accidentally bending or distorting the rotors.
•
If you know you will not be fl ying the helicopter for a long period, ensure that the model is
switched off, and remove the dry cells from the transmitter.
We wish you loads of fun and pleasure fl ying your Pico Star 1 Gyro!
Care and maintenance
•
Clean the model carefully after every fl ying session.
•
The model and the remote control system components should only be cleaned using suita-
ble materials.
Please ask your local model shop for advice on this.
Assembly (and repair instructions)
If you have to use solvent-based adhesives, use them only in a well-ventilated room. Take was-
te adhesives and paints to your nearest toxic waste collection point. An unobstructed work area
of generous size is very helpful for all types of modelling activity.
Do not fl y the model outdoors if there is any wind.
Pre-fl ight checking
If there are several helicopters at the fl ying site, check beforehand that your model is the only
one on "your" channel before you switch the transmitter on. Two transmitters on the same chan-
nel causes interference, and may result in other models crashing.
Before fl ying the model check that all parts are in place and fi rmly secured.
The helicopter must always be held in such a way that the rotors are free to spin, other-
wise they may cause injury when they start turning.
Always switch the transmitter on fi rst, and only then the receiver.
Always switch the receiver off fi rst, and only then the transmitter.
