INSTALLING THE BATTERIES

Remove the battery cover from the controller. Insert 4 x ‘AAA’ batteries according to indicated polarities. Replace battery cover.

1.  Install batteries carefully.
2.  Do not mix old and new batteries.
3.  Do not mix different types of batteries.

CHARGING THE HELICOPTER BATTERY

1.  Make sure the helicopter is turned off.
2.  Connect the USB charging cable to the helicopter charging port.
3.  Plug the charger into a USB port. The USB light will stay off while charging and will turn on once fully charged.

Charging time: 60 minutes — Flying time: approximately 6 minutes

CAUTION WHEN CHARGING

1. When charging, place the product on a dry, well-ventilated surface and keep away from heat sources.
2.  Always use adult supervision while charging.
3.  In order to increase battery longevity, avoid repeat charging and excessive discharging.
4.  As battery temperature is high immediately after flight, charge after cooling down for higher efficiency.
5.  Do not strike or subject battery to hard impacts or sharp surfaces
6. . Do not use any other charger than that which is supplied with this item.
7.  Do not use or leave the battery near a heat source such as a fire or space heater; exposure to heat may result in reduced performance or in some cases dangerous conditions.
8.  If the battery is left in a charging state for an extended period of time after being fully charged, the battery may automatically discharge.
9.  Never leave the battery unattended during charging.
10.  Do not disassemble the battery.
11.  Do not submerge the battery in water.

START-UP PROCEDURE

Before flying, the helicopter and transmitter must be turned on in sequence and synchronized.

1. Turn on the helicopter.
2.  Place the helicopter on the ground facing away from you.
3.  Turn on the remote control.
4. Push the throttle up and then down. The light on the remote will turn steady to indicate it has synced.
5.  Your helicopter is now synchronized and in stand-by mode awaiting Engine Idle command.

NOTE:  If after 30 seconds, it has not recognized the helicopter, turn off the controller and repeat the Start-Up procedure.

STARTING THE ENGINE; ENGINE IDLE

After synchronizing the helicopter, push the throttle up and release to go into idle mode.
The blades will rotate but the helicopter will not lift.

OPERATION: FLYING THE HELICOPTER

1.  From idle mode, press the take-off button or gently advance the throttle up to a desired height and release. The helicopter will hover at that height.*

LANDING:

1.  Press the land button and the helicopter will automatically land.
2.  Push down on the throttle until the helicopter is on the ground.

NOTE: Emergency Stop: Press and hold Emergency Stop: Press and hold*The helicopter may drift a bit, especially in the first 30 seconds until the altitude sensor gets a good fix on the position. Some drift is normal.

FIRST-TIME FLYERS!!! TAKE YOUR TIME! GO SLOW!
Practice hovering until you are comfortable with flight before attempting any other maneuvers. If you start to lose control, don’t panic. Just press land.
Push the direction lever up or down, the helicopter flies forward or backward.
Pull the direction lever to the left or right, the helicopter turns to the left or right.

TRIM ADJUSTMENT
LEFT TRIM
When the helicopter spins left unintentionally, you can correct it by pressing the right trim button until it evens out.
RIGHT TRIM
When the helicopter spins right unintentionally, you can correct it by pressing the left trim button until it evens out.
*The remote will emit a long beep when the trim is centered.
NOTE: TRIM ADJUSTMENTS ARE DESIGNED TO COUNTER DRIFTS NOT CAUSED BY WIND.

TROUBLESHOOTING

*Allow 15 minutes to pass between full flights as this will give the motors a chance to cool down. Failure to do so could wear out and shorten the life of the motors.

aircraft was not synchronized during set up

2.  Battery power depleted on aircraft, controller or both.

| 1.  To synchronize, turn on the aircraft first, place it on level ground, and then turn on the controller.

2.  Charge aircraft and/or replace batteries in the controller.

Response to control inputs intermittent or erratic

|

1. Controller battery power nearly depleted.

| 1. Replace batteries in the controller.
Tactical Cargo will not hover or strafe correctly| 1.  The aircraft was not on level ground during synchronization.

2.  Trim settings are incorrect.

| 1.  Re-synchronize aircraft and controller.

2.  Reset the trim buttons on the controller and re-trim flight controls.

The motors stop running| 1. If a propeller is stuck, the motors will automatically stop running.| 1. Turn off the helicopter and remote and check for debris in the propeller.

HOW TO CHANGE THE BLADES

• All helicopters have two blades that spin clockwise and two blades that spin counter-clockwise.
•  Make sure to place the blades on the correct axis or they will not spin correctly and the helicopter will not lift.
•  Each blade is marked with A or B. There may be a number after the letter but you can ignore the number.
•  Make sure to follow the graphic below to see where to place the blades.

FLYAWAYS

HOW TO PREVENT FLYAWAYS
To prevent “fly-away” situations (where helicopters seem to fly away out of control) it is important to first test and practice within close range before letting the helicopter fly too far away.
Each helicopter is designed to turn off the engines if the radio signal is lost. It is important to know and test the range of your helicopter before flying. We recommend turning on and syncing the helicopter and walking away while testing the engines. Keep walking and testing until it is obvious when you reach the point where the signal is not controlling the helicopter. This will be the control limit for the conditions in which you are flying. Distance does vary somewhat based on environmental and weather conditions, so testing the limit is advised. Fly in a range that is good for the easy visual operation of the helicopter.
IF YOU CAN’T SEE YOUR HELICOPTER, THEN YOU CAN’T CONTROL YOUR HELICOPTER.
* Fly-aways are not covered by warranty as they are overwhelmingly caused by pilot error.
