What is the flying checklist?

1. Always turn the transmitter on first. Set the THROTTLE CUT switch on the transmitter to the RED DOT position, then set the CAILBRATE switch on the helicopter to the RED DOT position.
2. Plug the flight battery into the helicopter.
3. Set the CAILBRATE switch on the helicopter to the GREEN DOT position and place the helicopter on a level surface. Allow the helicopter to initialize (Initialization time is about 10 seconds; initialization is successful when the LED Indicator on the helicopter changes from rapid blue flashes to slow blue flashes).
4. Lower the throttle stick to the lowest position on the transmitter and set the THROTTLE CUT switch on the transmitter to the GREEN DOT position.
5. Fly the helicopter.
6. When the Green LED indicator on the helicopter changes from solid to slow flashes, it indicates low flight battery voltage. Land the helicopter. Set the THROTTLE CUT switch on the transmitter to the RED DOT position, unplug the flight battery from the helicopter, and then turn off the transmitter.

How do I install the flight battery?

1. Unscrew the battery cabin. (Caution: The opening angle of the battery cabin is only up to 90 degrees).
2. Install the battery and secure it with the Velcro strap.
3. Place the balance plug into the plug cabin.
4. Connect the power lead to the port next to the balance plug cabin.
5. Screw in the battery cabin after closing it.

How do I understand the Primary Flight Controls in Mode 2 (Left-hand throttle)?

• Throttle and Rudder (Left Stick):

  • Pushing the Left Stick up or down controls the helicopter’s ascent and descent (Throttle control).
  • Pushing the Left Stick left or right controls the rotation of the helicopter’s head (Rudder control).

• Elevator and Aileron (Right Stick):

  • Pushing the Right Stick up or down makes the helicopter move forward or backward (Elevator control).
  • Pushing the Right Stick left or right makes the helicopter tilt left or right (Aileron control).

---

How do I understand the Primary Flight Controls in Mode 1 (Right-hand throttle)?

• Throttle and Rudder (Right stick):

  • Pushing the Right Stick up or down, the helicopter will lift up or descend accordingly. This is Throttle control.
  • Pushing the Left Stick left or right makes the head of the helicopter turn left or right. This is Rudder Control.

• Elevator and Aileron(Left Stick):

  • Pushing the Left Stick up or down moves the helicopter forward or backward. This is elevator control.
  • Pushing the Right stick left or right, makes the helicopter tilt left or right accordingly. This is Aileron control.

What is the purpose of the Canopy Enhance Tape?

The canopy is a fragile part. A spare Enhance Tape is included in the box for repairing cracks in the canopy. Applying the Enhance Tape to the bonded areas, as shown in the diagram, can strengthen the canopy and reduce its destructiveness. It is recommended to apply the Enhance Tape before usage.

---

What is the function of the Throttle Cut?

Throttle Cut is used to quickly turn off the motor if the helicopter is out of control. When Throttle Cut is activated (switch in the red dot position), the motor will be disengaged from throttle control and stop spinning. When Throttle Cut is deactivated (switch in the green dot position), the motor will be controlled by the throttle and continue to spin. For safety, set the Throttle Cut to the red dot position whenever you need to touch the helicopter or check the direction controls.

---

How does Dual Rate Selection work?

The control sensitivity can be adjusted using the Dual Rate switch (HI and LO). The factory default setting is Low Rates (LO). If you experience control difficulty when flying outdoors in windy conditions with Low Rates (LO), you can switch to High Rates (HI).

---

How do I bind the Transmitter and Receiver?

1. Power off the transmitter and power on the helicopter. The condition green LED on the helicopter will flash rapidly for a short period.
2. Push and hold the rudder trim to the right and power on the transmitter.
3. When the condition green LED on the helicopter lights up, the binding is complete. Release the rudder trim button. (Note: The helicopter is completely bound at the factory setting).

---

What does the Low Voltage Warning on the Transmitter mean?

The blue power LED indicator will flash slowly when the transmitter battery voltage is low. Replace the transmitter batteries as soon as possible to avoid affecting normal operation. If the blue power LED indicator flashes slowly with beeps during flight, land the model immediately and replace the transmitter batteries. Failure to do so could result in the destruction of the model and possibly bodily injury.

---

What should I do if the battery bulges after several flights?

This could be caused by keeping the helicopter spinning when it can no longer be raised, over-discharging the battery, or not using it for a long time. The solution is to replace the battery.

---

What does it mean if the Green LED on the helicopter flashes slowly during flight?

This indicates that the LiPo battery voltage is low. Recharge the LiPo battery.

---

What should I do if the Green LED on the helicopter flashes rapidly?

This means the helicopter is in Binding Mode. Power off the transmitter and repeat the binding process.

---

What does it mean if the Blue LED on the helicopter flashes rapidly and the green LED goes off?

The transmitter is not receiving any signal from the helicopter. Try rebinding or rebooting the transmitter.

---

What should I do if the Blue LED and green LED on the helicopter both turn off?

Check for a battery connection error or battery damage. Reconnect the battery or replace it with a new one.

---

What if the Green LED on the helicopter glows solid and the blue LED goes off?

This indicates that the Helicopter Calibrate Function is not activated. Turn on the Calibrate Switch on the helicopter.

---

What if the motor doesn’t spin after successful initialization, but the servo works normally?

The Throttle Cut Function might be activated. Turn off the Throttle Cut Switch on the Transmitter.

---

What should I do if the helicopter skews slightly during flight?

This could be due to an incorrect trim value. Adjust the trim buttons to maintain level flight.

---

What if the helicopter vibrates or shakes in flight?

Check if the main rotor blade grip or main blade is bent. Inspect them for damage and replace them if necessary.

---

What should I do if the helicopter spins rapidly in flight?

Check if the tail blade installation direction is wrong. Reinstall the tail blade with the correct orientation.

---

What if the helicopter skews heavily in flight?

Possible problems includes that the Servo or linking parts have errors, Check each linking parts. The Helicopter could have its Calibrate Function not activated (switch in red dot position).Set the CAILBRATE switch on the helicopter to the GREEN DOT position and place the helicopter on a level surface. Or you may have touch the helicopter during Calibrate. Do not touch the helicopter during the helicopter Calibrate. Or the cause may be that the incorrect trim value in some direction. Set all the transmitter trim in the middle or neutral position.

---

How do I tell if the transmitter trim is in the middle or neutral position?

The middle or neutral trim position is indicated by a longer tone.
