PART REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS CONTENTS:

GYRO-STABILIZED 3CH WIRELESS INDOOR HELICOPTER PROPELLER SYSTEM
Your Gyro-Stabilized 3CH Wireless Indoor Helicopter propeller system is a precision instrument that may need repair or replacement from time to time for optimal flight function. Crash landing from high-speed aerial flights may cause damage to your Gyro-Stabilized 3CH Wireless Indoor Helicopter propeller or propeller connecting rods.

TROUBLESHOOTING:

If your Gyro-Stabilized 3CH Wireless Indoor Helicopter loses its ability to fly correctly, please inspect the propeller system carefully for the following two common issues:

1. Replacing Connecting Rod: The connecting rod is a small “handcuff” style device that stabilizes the “upper” propellers. There are two connecting rods on the upper propeller. Please see (Diagram 1).
   If a connecting rod is broken or missing simply replace it by “peeling” off the existing broken unit and replacing it with a new one. You may have to use slight pressure when reattaching both ends of the new connecting rod. Make sure that the new connecting rod is secured and locked in place. See
   (Diagram 2). For changing connecting rod, make sure there is no damage to the actual blade or arm that holds the connecting rod in place. If there is you must replace the entire blade system.

2. Replacing Upper and Bottom Propeller: The propeller is subject to damage as you learn to properly fly and control your Gyro-Stabilized 3CH Wireless Indoor Helicopter. If after a crash your helicopter has loss of control or flies erratically you should carefully inspect your entire propeller system for any sign of damage. Most common are: cracked or chipped blade, broken “connecting rod,” frozen balance bar (this is when the balancing bar and blade are jammed and can not move freely up and down). To replace the propeller blades follow diagrams 3 through 12.

Warn spectators that you will be flying your helicopter so that they are aware of its position. Before flight, inspect the rotor blades to make certain that the blades are securely fastened to the helicopter.

WARNINGS

• Choking/Cutting Hazard. Small Parts/Sharp Rotor Blades.
• Keep hands, hair, and loose clothing away from the propeller when the power switch is turned to the ON position.
• Turn off the transmitter and helicopter power switches when not in use.
