Flight Stabilization Control
The Mini Gamma is equipped with a three-position, 6-axis gyro-assisted
ight stabilzation control that reduces the control sensitivity for beginners,
limits the airplane’s angle of bank and helps dampen the effects of wind and
turbulence during a ight. The three positions are:
0 – OFF – Expert mode (No ight stabilization is applied).
1 – Medium – Intermediate mode. (Full ight stabilization with increased
control throws).
2 – High – Beginner mode. (Full ight stabilization is applied).
When connecting a ight battery with the switch set to position 1 and 2
(Intermediate and Beginner mode) is it important to allow the Mini Gamma to
sit on a level surface without movement for a period of 5 – 7 seconds. This
will allow the gyro to properly calibrate.
Finding a Flying Field
Based on the size and weight of the Mini Gamma it is classied as a Park
Flyer and therefore requires a ying area of a size similar to a park, school
yard, football eld or regular model ying eld. Of course, larger areas are
even more suited, particularly if you’re new to model ying and wishing to
learn. Do not y in car parks, built up areas, crowded locations or within
close proximity to highways, railway lines, high tension cables, people,
animals or residential areas. Your ying area must be free of obstructions.
Our suggestion is that you also y over grass as this is a much more forgiving
surface that will cause less damage in the unfortunate event of a crash.
Short grass is better for take-offs and landings as long grass can cause the
airplane to nose over. An ideal ying area allows take-off and landing from
a smooth surface (such as asphalt) and ying over grass. Note: the Mini
Gamma is designed to be own outdoors only.
