Service Notes - Revell Control XS HIC 803 Bedienungsanleitung

• Pilot 2 switches his/her remote control on and selects channel C.
• Pilot 2 switches on his/her helicopter. Now move the thrust controller fully forward
and then back to its starting position. The power LED is now continuously lit and the
helicopter is set to channel C.
They can now be flown at the same time!

GEnERAl FlyinG Tips:
• Always place the helicopter on a level
surface. An inclined surface can, under
certain circumstances, negatively effect
the helicopter during take-off.
• Always operate the controls slowly and
with a gentle touch.
• Always maintain visual contact with the
helicopter and do not look at the remote
control!
• Move the thrust controller somewhat
down again once the helicopter has
lifted off from the ground. Maintain
flying altitude by adjusting the thrust
controller.
• If the helicopter descends, move the
thrust controller slightly upward again.
• If the helicopter climbs, move the thrust
controller down slightly.
suiTABlE FlyinG EnViROnmEnT:
The location in which the helicopter is flown should fulfil the following criteria:
• It should be an indoor location without any wind. Insofar as possible, there should be
no air conditioning systems, heaters, etc. that can cause air currents.
• The room should be at least 10 metres long, six metres wide and three metres high.
• No disruptive objects, such as fans, lamps, etc. should be present in the room.
• When initialising take-off, make absolutely sure that all persons and animals – includ-
ing the pilot – are at least 1-2 metres removed from the aircraft before flight begin.
• Always watch the aircraft to ensure it does not fly into and injure the pilot, other
people or animals.
WARninG!
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. This 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 helicopter'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. It is not necessary for the
helicopter to fly straight at first. It is far
more important to maintain a constant
height of approximately one metre
above the ground by repeatedly
tapping the thrust controller. Only then
should the pilot practise steering the
helicopter left and right.

Problem: The rotor blades do not move.
Cause: • The ON/OFF switch is set to the "OFF" position.
• The battery is too weak or depleted.
• The helicopter is not ready.
Remedy: • Set the ON/OFF switch to the "ON" position.
• Charge the battery.
• Move the thrust controller fully forward and then back to its starting
position – wait 5 sec.
Problem: The helicopter stops and descends during flight for no
apparent reason.
Cause: • The battery is too weak.
• The infrared connection has been disrupted (e.g. lighting too bright).
Remedy: • Charge the battery.
• Safeguard the infrared connection by changing location if necessary.
Problem: The helicopter cannot be controlled.
Cause: • A third-party infrared signal is disrupting signal transmission.
• Signal transmission is being affected by a strong light source.
Remedy: • Avoid or switch off potentially disruptive infrared sources.
• Use the helicopter at a different location.
Problem: The helicopter only rotates around its axis clockwise or
anti-clockwise.
Cause: • Excessive trim adjustment to the left or right, possibly due to the
incorrect position of the trim wheel.
Remedy: • Reset the trim adjustment by turning the trim wheel to the neutral
position (see section 6, Steering Trim Adjustment).
