Battery Installation & Charging
Transmitter Battery Installation (*Make sure the power switch is on the “OFF” position.)
Warning!
- Remove these batteries from the unit by pulling up on one end of each battery positive by hand.
- DO NOT remove or install batteries using sharp or metal tools.
Note : When the power indicator on the transmitter starts blinking, replace the batteries.
Plane battery charging
- Take out the charging wire.
- Turn off the plane. Insert the charging plug into the socket.
- Turn on the transmitter the charging process will begin automatically and the green charging indicator will light up. Unplug the charging plug after the charging indicator turns off, and charging is completed.
Playground and Weather selection
-
It’s better on a sunny day, and in the calm wind or slight breeze (Esp. no more than Beaufort scale 1 – light air [smoke can float but leaf can’t move].
Precaution: Because of its lightweight, it may be blown away under strong wind. -
We suggest you can play it on the grass to protect your plane when it impacts the ground.
-
Do not play your plane when it is raining, snowing, or near the high-power cable.
Procedure for PAIR / SYNC the plane and Transmitter
2.4 GHz technology allows for many planes to fly without signal interference. A connection, or pairing, must be made between the plane and the transmitter to function. Sometimes, the pairing will happen automatically. If it does not, or if the connection is lost then follow these steps to sync the plane and the transmitter.
- Make sure the throttle stick is at the minimum position.
- Turn the Power Switch button to the ‘ON’ position on the plane, Red LED will then gloom. Then turn on the Transmitter,
- The Synchronize/Pairing procedure is automatically COMPLETED when you can see the Red LED light up solid (not blinking) on both the plane and Transmitter.
Flying Instructions
-
Firstly finished pairing the transmitter and plane.
-
Point the plane toward the wind-blowing direction and throw it out horizontally. Immediately afterward, push the throttle stick up to full speed.
-
Trimming the plane:
If the plane turns left involuntarily, press the right side of the yaw trimmer (”R”) repeatedly until the plane flies straight. Likewise, if the plane turns right involuntarily, press the left side of the yaw trimmer (”L”) repeatedly . -
Push the direction stick toward the left to turn the plane anticlockwise, and push the direction stick toward the right to turn it clockwise. The plane turns depending on the speed difference between the left propellers and the right propellers.
-
Push the throttle stick up to increase the flying speed and push the throttle stick down to decrease the speed.
-
Pull the throttle stick down slowly to stop the propellers and land the plane.
Flying tips
Take off by throwing
- The correct take-off method: throw the plane out horizontally.
- If the plane was thrown out with its nose pointing upward, it may fly erratically and suddenly fall off. So it is recommended to pull the throttle control down to fly your plane horizontally.
Tips: Always point your plane with the nose facing the wind.
Replacement of propeller
- Take out the broken or spoiled propeller as the photo is shown.
- Check the direction of the propeller before replacing a new one.
Troubleshooting
Symptom | Diagnosis | Solution |
---|---|---|
Propeller does not move | – On/Off switch is at “OFF” position. |
– Weak battery power.
– PAIRING / SYNC Procedure is not yet completed or done.
| – Set the switch to “ON”
– Recharge/ replace the batteries
– Reset by switch off both plane and transmitter then switch both on again.
The power indicator on transmitter is blinking.| – Weak transmitter battery
power.| – Replace the transmitter batteries with new ones.
Failed to take off or sudden drop during flight.| – Plane does not run toward
the wind direction.
– Weak battery power.
| – Direct the plane towards the wind direction before take off.
– Recharge the plane battery.
The plane is out of control| – Another radio control device occupies the same frequency near your area of operation.
– Out of the control range.
– High-frequency interference emitted from high-voltage lines, transformers, and other buildings.
| – Move to another location to operate the plane.
– The transmission range is up to 50 meters in open space.
– Avoid operating the plane in the presence of high-voltage lines or transformers.
