• Always place the helicopter on a flat surface. An uneven surface may affect the helicopter's take-off.
• The helicopter must always fly at least 0.3 metres above the ground to ensure stable flight
behaviour.
• 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 altitude.
• Gently push the throttle stick down if the helicopter gains altitude.
• To turn the helicopter, the transmitter stick usually only needs to be moved very slightly in the
corresponding direction. Most first-time flyers initially tend to over-steer. Always handle the
transmitter sticks slowly and carefully; avoid fast and jerky movements.
• After adjusting trimming settings, beginners should practice 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 practicing flying to the left and right.
• Do not fly the helicopter if any parts are damaged. We recommend carrying out regular inspections.
Only use original spare parts. (Online tips and tricks)
• Check the helicopter before every start. Damaged parts may lead to loss of control while flying.
To take off or gain altitude,
carefully move the throttle/
yaw stick forward.
To move forward, carefully
push the pitch/roll stick
forward.
To fly to the left, carefully
push the pitch/roll stick
to the left, provided that
the tail of the helicopter is
pointing towards the pilot.
To rotate the helicopter to
the left, move the throttle/
yaw stick to the left.
Safety tips
5. SUItABLe FLIGHt LocAtIoNS:
Choose a location that meets the following criteria:
1. The helicopter can be flown outdoors if there is no wind. There should also be little air movement if
you are flying the helicopter indoors. Do not fly in spaces equipped, for example, with heating or air
conditioning systems that cause air movements.
2. Only fly in spacious areas that are free of obstacles.
3. Before take-off, ensure that all animals and people, including the pilot, are at least 1-2 metres away
from the helicopter.
4. Always watch the helicopter to prevent it from flying into the pilot, other people or animals, or causing
any other damage.
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 for written
confirmation and keep this in a safe place.
• After a "crash landing", immediately move the controller's throttle stick to the down position to prevent
damage to electronics and the rotor blades.
• Turn off the controller and remove the battery from the helicopter before carrying out repairs or working
on the helicopter.
To land or descend, move
the throttle/yaw stick back-
ward. The stick only needs
to be moved very slightly to
ensure smooth flying.
To move backwards,
carefully pull the pitch/roll
stick back.
To fly to the right, carefully
push the pitch/roll stick
to the right, provided that
the tail of the helicopter is
pointing towards the pilot.
To rotate the helicopter to
the right, move the throttle/
yaw stick to the right.
