Important - Revell Control BLACK SHADOW Manual De Instrucciones

Up to two pilots can fly their helicopters at the same time. To do this, proceed as follows::
• Pilot 1 switches his remote control unit on and selects channel A
• Pilot 1 switches his helicopter on. Once it is ready, the pilot turns the actuating regulator once briefly
so that the helicopter sets itself to channel A.
• Pilot 1 sets his remote control unit to one side without switching it or the helicopter off.
• Pilot 2 switches his remote control unit on and selects channel B
4. General flying tips:
• Always place the helicopter on a flat surface. An uneven surface may affect the helicopter's
take-off.
• Always move the controls slowly and gently.
• ALWAYS look at the helicopter and not at the controller!
• As soon as the helicopter leaves the ground, lower the throttle stick slightly. Adjust the
throttle as necessary to maintain altitude.
• Gently push the throttle stick up if the helicopter loses height.
• Gently push the throttle stick down if the helicopter gains height.
• To turn the helicopter, the direction stick usually only needs to be moved very slightly in the
corresponding direction. Most first-time users initially tend to over-steer. Always handle the
direction stick slowly and gently, and avoid fast and jerky movements.
• After adjusting the trimming setting, beginners should practise using the throttle stick
correctly. There is no need to keep the helicopter flying straight at the start – it is more
important that you learn how to maintain a constant altitude of about 1 metre above
the ground by slightly moving the throttle stick. Once you are able to do this, move on to
practising left and right turns.
• Always move the throttle stick to the down position after a crash.
• Do not fly the helicopter in direct sunlight or very bright lighting. These may affect the infrared controller.
• Do not cover the infrared signal receiver of the helicopter or the infrared signal emitter of the controller. If these are covered, the helicopter will not be able to receive any signal.
• Do not place any stickers or other labels on the helicopter, as these may affect the infrared signal transmission.
• Two or more helicopters of the same model cannot be flown on the same radio band. In this case, use the band selector to choose a different band (A, B, C).
Problem:
The rotor blades are not turning.
Causes:
• The ON/OFF switch is "OFF".
• The battery is too weak or dead.
(The control LED flashes 9 times)
Solutions:

Troubleshooting Safety Tips
Problem:
The helicopter suddenly stops flying and drops.
Causes:
• The battery is too weak.
Solutions:
• Recharge the battery.
Service Information
• Pilot 2 switches his helicopter on. Once it is ready, the pilot turns the actuating regulator once
briefly, whereby the helicopter sets itself to channel B.
Now you can fly the helicopters at the same time.
Note: We do not recommend flying three helicopters at the same time.
5. SUITABLE FLIGHT LOCATIONS:
Choose a location that meets the following criteria:
1. Indoors, with little air movement. Where possible, avoid circulating air from heating and
air conditioning.
2. The room should be at least 10 metres long, 6 metres wide and 3 metres high.
3. Do not fly in rooms with electric fans, lamps or other objects that may interfere with flight.
4. Before take-off, ensure that all animals and people, including the pilot, are at least 1-2
metres away from the helicopter.
5. Always watch the helicopter to prevent it from flying into and injuring the pilot, other
people or animals.

Important!

Since 2005, model airplanes and helicopters that can fly higher than 30 metres must be
insured. Contact your private liability insurer to find out if your new and old models are
covered. Ask your insurer for written confirmation and keep this in a safe place.
Problem:
Loss of helicopter control.
Causes:
• Another infrared control device
is interfering with the signal.
• Strong lighting is interfering
with the signal.
Solutions:
• Avoid or turn off other possible
sources of infrared signals.
• Fly the helicopter at a different
location.
