Information for First Take-Off

a) Hover Flight
For a simpler and consistent explanation of steering, classic terminology is used here as well. This comes from flight language
and is widely used.
Direction descriptions are always to be interpreted from the perspective of a „virtual" pilot in the model. The two red rotors are
considered direction indicators. They mean „front". The explanations are all based on configuration of the remote control to
mode II.
Hovering denotes a flight status in which the „Mini-Copter MC 120" neither rises nor falls so that the upwards directed uplift force is equal to
the downwards directed weight. This is achieved about at the central throttle position. Push the throttle lever (figure 7a) forward to increase
the motor speed and lift up the Mini-Copter. Pulling the throttle lever back causes the Mini-Copter to drop. Pulling the throttle lever back all
the way shuts off the engines.
During flight close above the ground and during take-off, turbulence and air flow can be experienced which may affect the „Mini-
Copter MC 120". A quicker response to the controlling motions and slight swerving of the „Mini-Copter MC 120" forwards,
backwards or to the side may result from this. This so-called ground effect is no longer present starting at a fight height of about
50 cm.
