BIND WITH TRANSMITTER

You buy the original model The pairing has been reset before factory. If you need to pair again, please comply with the following steps.

  1. First open the transmitter, make sure the throttle joystick is in the bottom position, 3D1 IDLE switch in the OFF position
  2. Take down the canopy for touching the code switch.
  3. Charge the helicopter, the red lamp flashes slowly, press the code button for 1 second, then the red lamp will go out and get ready for pairing.
  4. When the red and blue lights turn solid, the pairing has been successful.

ABOUT THE TRANSMITTER

This transmitter supports CCPM 120 degree helicopter dedicated transmitter,with 3D 6G switching high/ low rudder capacity for two joystick modes, flameout switch (TH.HOLD) and other modes, large screen LCD display multi-function transmitter.

FLIGHT BATTERY INSTALLMENT

  1. Debugging pitch of threadExplanation: The product has passed the inspection before leaving the factory, the user needs to re-adjust the pitch of thread after replacing the steering gear or related accessories.To ensure safety, disconnect the main motor power cord during commissioning to avoid personal injury caused by motor rotation during commissioning.The user comes with a special pitch of thread ruler for helicopters that can be adjusted more accurately.First, bind the aircraft to the code, and the transmitter in 6G self stabilization mode.Press the code matching key on the flight control board 4 times, the mainboard will flash red quickly and enter the debugging mode.Use the transmitter to control the aileron rocker, lift rocker, and direction rocker for debugging until the swashplate is balanced and the blades are at O pitch of thread After the debugging is completed, press the motherboard link key to exit the debugging, the motherboard will resume the red light and the blue light will be on, then you can fly
  2. Sensitivity adjustmentUsers can adjust different lock perception according to their own needs, use a flat-blade screwdriver to adjust, turn clockwise to increase the lock perception, and turn counterclockwise to decrease the lock perception1 Lock tail sensitivity 2 Swashplate perception 3 Swashplate sensitivity

TROUBLESHOOTING

  Problem Cause Solution
1 LED on receiver flashes constantly with no responses after connecting batteries to transmitter. Transmitter is not bound to receiver.Pairing of the transmitter and receiver failed . Re-pair (Refer to P.5, Programming your Transmitter)
2 The helicopter has no response after connecting batteries to receiver. Check whether the transmitter and receiver  connecting to power; check the voltage of transmitter and receiver; Battery pole flake contact is not good. Open the transmitter, make sure the batteries connecting is good Replace and charge transmitter batteries Make sure the battery pole flake contact is good.
3 When push the throttle pole, the rotor do not rotate and the LED on Receiver flashes cons tantly. Low battery voltage; batteries connection is not good. Replace and charge the batteries, reconnect the batteries to the receiver board.
4 Helicopter takes off immediately, once the batteries and receiver connected. Didn’t put the throttle to the lowest Put the throttle pole at the lowest position before open the transmitter.
5 Helicopter vibrates or shakes in flight. Damaged frotor blades and lateral axis blade grips too tight causing the movement of the main rotor isn’t smooth. Change the main rotor blades, and lateral axis Loosen the blade grips properly.
6 Main rotor blades are shaking in flying. Lateral axis is bent Latreral axis screw is not tight .There are some debris in the servo, causing shakes .The loose between the swashplates.Deformed or damaged t ail rotor blades. Replace the lateral axis. Tighten the lateral axis screw. Change the Bearing.Remove the servo, and clear debris.Compress  the swash plates. change the tail rotor blades.
7  

The sound of the main rotor becomes smaller.

Low battery voltage of helicopter. Charge the battery or change a fully charged battery.
8  

Helicopter has no reaction or can not fly smoothly.

Failure of binding Rebind the helicopter and transmitter, make sure you place the helicopter static level next to the transmitter.
