6 TRIM ADJUSTMENT OF THE CONTROL
The model must be switched on first in order to connect it to the remote control.
Its adjustment is simple, but it requires some patience and a feel for it. Please observe
the following instructions precisely: Carefully move the thrust control up and raise the
helicopter approximately 0.5 to 1 metre in altitude.
6A If the model automatically moves slowly or quickly to the left or right ...
gradually press the trim for sideways flight 2E in the opposite direction.
6B If the model moves by itself slowly or quickly around its own axis ...
press the trim adjustment for rotation 2C incrementally in the opposite direction.
6C If the model automatically moves slowly or quickly forwards or backwards ...
gradually press the forwards/backwards trim 2D in the opposite direction.
7 FLIGHT CONTROL
Note: Only minimal corrections of the controls are necessary for a smooth flying behavior
of the model! The direction indication applies when the model is viewed from behind. If
the model is flying forwards towards the pilot, it must be moved in the opposite direction.
7A Take off or increase altitude by carefully moving the control for thrust and
rotation 2A forward.
7B Land or decrease altitude by moving the control for thrust and
rotation 2A backward.
7C Fly forward by moving the controller for forward/backward and sideways
flight 2B carefully forward.
7D Fly backward by moving the controller for forward/backward and sideways
flight 2B carefully backward.
7E Fly to the left by moving the controller for forward/backward and sideways
flight 2B carefully to the left.
7F Fly to the right by moving the controller for forward/backward and sideways
flight 2B carefully to the right.
7G Turn the model around to the left by moving the control for thrust and rotation 2A
to the left.
7H Turn model around to the right by moving the control for thrust and rotation 2A
to the right.
Button 2H: Pressing this button activates Headless mode. Headless mode supports be-
ginners in the initial stages. Regardless of where the quadrocopter turns, the direction of
flight always corresponds exactly to the direction specified with the control for forwards/
backwards and sideways movement 2B. An example: If the model were to be turned
180° and flown towards the operator, the operator would have to „convert" the forwards/
backwards and sideways movement accordingly. This is no longer necessary if headless
mode is activated, as the internal processor always converts the control directions auto-
matically. Pressing button 2H again deactivates the mode.
Attention: The model „notes" the forwards direction during each switch-on. This
means that the operator must not turn when controlling the model, as this would
change the concept of „forwards" and „right/left" in relation to the model. If the operator
changes position and wants to use headless mode - or if the control direction is no longer
correct due to a collision, the model must be restarted.

Button 2I:
Pressing button 2I switches to second speed. Pressing it again returns the model to
first speed.
Button 2J:
Quickly pressing button 2J activates the looping function. The model then performs a
loop in the direction steered by the Forwards/Reverse and Banking controller 2B.
BATTERY STATUS:
• The battery is empty if the model begins to lose thrust. Land in order to avoid crashing.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE FLYING
GENERAL FLYING TIPS:
• Always place the model on a level surface. An inclined surface can, under certain
circumstances, have a negative impact on the starting behavior of the model.
• Always operate the controls slowly and with a gentle touch.
• Always maintain visual contact with the model and do not look at the remote control!
• Move the thrust control down again somewhat as soon as the model lifts off from
the ground. Maintain flying altitude by adjusting the thrust controller.
• If the model lowers, move the thrust control slightly upward again.
• If the model climbs, move the thrust control down slightly.
• To fly along a curve, tapping the directional controller very slightly in the respective
direction often suffices.
There is a general tendency during preliminary attempts at flight to operate the
model's controls too aggressively.Always operate the controls slowly and carefully.
Never fast and fitfully.
• Beginners should first master trimming before attempting to master the thrust controller.
The model does not necessarily have to fly straight at the beginning - initially, it is
more important to maintain a constant height of approximately one meter above the
ground by repeatedly tapping the thrust control. Only then should the pilot practice
steering the model left and right.
