PERFORMANCE TIPS

• Flying in extreme heat or cold conditions will affect the performance and may damage the helicopter.
• Speed switch (level I) – recommended for beginners to use.
• Speed switch (level II) – recommended for experienced operators to use.
• The rechargeable battery needs to be recharged if you find the helicopter flies below 1 metre when the joystick is pushed to the limit.

How to perform direction trim

If the helicopter spins automatically without moving the right lever (direction), you need to do direction trim on the helicopter.

When the helicopter is turning to left, please rotate direction trim button clockwise. (see diagram 12)
