Flight Control - REVELL 23958 Bedienungsanleitung

7 FlIghT CoNTrol

Note: Only minimal corrections of the controls are necessary for a smooth flying
behaviour of the multicopter! The direction information applies if the multicopter is
viewed from behind. If the multicopter is flying 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
forward.
7B Move the thrust/rotation control back for landing or to fly lower.
7C Fly forward by moving the controller for forward/backward flight and banking
carefully forward.
7D Fly backward by moving the controller for forward/backward flight as well as
banking carefully backward.
7E Fly to the left by moving the controller for forward/backward flight and banking
carefully to the left.
7F Fly to the right by moving the controller for forward/backward flight and banking
carefully to the right.
7G Turn helicopter around to the left by moving the controller for thrust and rotation to
the left.
7H Turn helicopter around to the right by moving the controller for thrust and rotation
to the right.
Fly loops - advanced users only! When you have sufficiently mastered your
multicopter, you can try your hand at the stunt flying function. Briefly press the top
right button on the remote control (7I) one time. The helicopter then automatically
performs a loop. The helicopter is switched to looping mode by pressing one of the
two looping buttons (7J). Also observe the safety height - fly at a height of at least
5m, as your multicopter loses height when rolling over and has to be caught and
corrected afterwards!
Note: Looping is more successful when the battery capacity is near full.
Now climb to safety height. Press the control for forward and backwards flight
and banking all the way forward and all the way back very quickly.The multicopter
performs a forward looping manoeuvre - looping in other directions are performed
corresponding to the movement of the controller. Be prepared to catch the multicopter,
as the flying height, direction and speed after rolling over depend heavily on the wind
and preceding flight movements.
7K Mode switch: By pressing the mode button, you can switch the sideways and
rotation control functions with stationary rotors.
7L Reset: The trim settings can be reset to the factory settings with this button with
stationary rotors.
7M Calibrate: If the helicopter drifts heavily in one direction, the position sensors must
be readjusted. The calibration button is used for this purpose. For this purpose,
place the model on a level, absolutely straight surface and briefly press the button
once. The Status LED blinks once briefly. If the helicopter is positioned at an angle,
the sensors are not correctly zeroed and the model will drift in this direction.

GENERAL FLyING TIPS:
• Always place the multicopter on a level
surface. An inclined surface can, under
certain circumstances, have a negative
impact on the starting behaviour of the
multicopter.
• Always operate the controls slowly and
with a gentle touch.
• Always maintain visual contact with the
multicopter and do not look at the remote
control!
• Move the thrust control down again
somewhat as soon as the multicopter lifts
off from the ground. Maintain flying
altitude by adjusting the thrust controller.
• If the multicopter lowers, move the thrust
control slightly upward again.
• If the multicopter climbs, move the thrust
controller down slightly.
BATTERy STATuS:
• The battery is empty if the multicopter begins to lose thrust. Land in order to avoid
crashing.
ATTENTION!
Flying model aircraft and helicopters outdoors has required mandatory liability
insurance since 2005. Contact your private liability insurer and make sure that your
new and earlier models are included in your insurance coverage. Request written
confirmation and keep this in a safe place. Alternatively, the DMFV offers a trial
membership free of charge online at www.dmfv.aero, which includes insurance.
• 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 multicopter'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 multicopter does not
necessarily have to fly straight at the
beginning - initially, it is more important
to maintain a constant height of
approximately one metre above the
ground by repeatedly tapping the thrust
control. Only then should the pilot
practice steering the multicopter left and
right.
