Tail Rotor
1. Power on the transmitter.
2. Turn TH HOLD ON and put the transmitter in normal mode.
3. Connect the fl ight battery to the ESC.
NOTICE:
Do not allow the helicopter to move until the Status LED is solid orange.
The
receiver
will not operate correctly if the helicopter moves before the Status LED
is solid orange.
4. Move the rudder stick to the right. The
pitch slider on the tail shaft should move
toward the tail case. If the pitch slider
moves in the opposite direction, ensure
the rudder channel reverse setting within
the transmitter is set to normal.
5. Release the rudder control. Manually turn
the helicopter nose to the left. The fl ight
controller should compensate by moving
the tail slider towards the tail case.
Cyclic and Collective Control Test
Ensure the throttle hold is ON when performing the direction control tests.
Test the controls prior to each fl ight to ensure the servos, linkages and parts
operate correctly. If the controls do not react as shown in the illustrations below,
confi rm the transmitter is programmed correctly before continuing on to
the Motor test.
Cyclic
When using a fl ybarless fl ight controller, you are controlling rotational rates while the
receiver
controls the servos. You are not directly controlling the servos
with the transmitter.
It is normal for the swashplate to slowly move back to its original position after a
stick input and for the servos to not move at the same speed as your control sticks.
• Tilt the helicopter forward. The swashplate must tilt backward.
• Tilt the helicopter backward. The swashplate must tilt forward.
• Roll the helicopter left. The swashplate must roll right.
• Roll the helicopter right. The swashplate must roll left.
