Flight practice for the beginner
Please note:
1. Beginners should always ask an experienced helicopter pilot for help.
2. To avoid accidents, beginners should always stand at least five metres from the model when practising.
3. Always fly at a suitable site, with plenty of open space and no obstacles.
4. Your model is a 3D helicopter. We recommend that you first gain experience by flying a co-axial helicopter or using a flight simulator
before attempting to fly this model.
First steps:
1. Practising throttle control – hovering
If the model starts to lift off, carefully back off the throttle until it rests
on the ground again. Repeat this procedure until you have developed
an instinctive feel for the throttle stick. When the model is hovering,
the tail rotor will attempt to compensate for the torque of the main
rotor, and the helicopter will yaw slightly to the left. Correct this unwan-
ted movement by applying an opposite tail rotor command until the
helicopter's tail is again pointing straight at you. Your aim should be to
stabilise the model in the hover at a height of 1.5 metres, and then to
land the machine again.
2. Practising the roll and pitch-axis functions
While the model is hovering, carefully move the roll stick to right and
left, and the pitch-axis stick forward and back, then try to return the
model to its starting point. Repeat this procedure until you feel confi-
dent controlling the roll and pitch-axis functions.
