Remote control safety instructions:

We recommend new alkali manganese batteries for the remote control. Single-use batteries for this remote control and other electrical devices operated in the home can be replaced with environmentally-friendly rechargeablebatteries.
- As soon as the remote control no longer functions reliably, new batteries should be inserted and/or the batteries should be charged.

Safety instructions for batteries:

• Rechargeable batteries must be removed from the remote control prior to recharging.

Non-rechargeable batteries may not be charged.
- Rechargeable batteries may only be charged under the supervision of an adult.
- The combination of different types of batteries as well as new and used batteries must be avoided.
Only recommended batteries or those of an equivalent type may be used.
- Batteries must be inserted according to the correct polarity (+ and -).
- Depleted batteries must be removed from the remote control.
- The connection terminals may not be short-circuited.
- Remove the batteries from the remote control if they are not to be used for an extended period of time.

Charging unit safety instructions:

Non-rechargeable batteries may not be charged:
This charging unit is not suitable for people (including children) with physical or mental limitations, or those with insufficient knowledge and experience of charging units, unless under supervision or following proper directions from a parent or legal guardian.
Children must be supervised - the charging unit is not a toy!
The charging unit for the LiPo battery is specially designed for the charging of the model battery. The charging unit may only be used to charge the model battery, not other batteries.

The model is equipped with a

rechargeable lithium polymer battery. Please observe the following safety instructions:

• Never throw LiPo batteries into a fire or store them in a hot location.
  Only use the supplied charger to charge the battery. The use of a different charger may lead to the permanent damage of the battery and neighbouring parts, as well as physical injury!
• Never use a charger for NiCd/NiMH batteries!

Always ensure that the charging process takes place on a fireproof

surface in a fire-resistant environment. Do not leave the battery unsupervised during the charging process.

• Never disassemble or alter the battery contacts. Do not damage or puncture the battery cells. There is a risk of explosion!

• The LiPo battery must be kept out of reach of children.

• When disposing of batteries, they must be discharged or their capacity must be fully depleted. Cover exposed terminals with adhesive tape in order to prevent short circuiting!

Maintenance and care:

Please only use a clean, damp cloth to wipe off the model.
- Protect the model and batteries from direct sunlight and/or direct heat.
- Never allow the remote control and charging unit to come into contact with water, because the electronics will be damaged as a result.

4 CHARGING THE MODEL

Attention: The battery and motor must cool down for 15 to 30 minutes before charging and alter every flight. Otherwise they can be damaged. The charging process must be constantly monitored. Always ensure that the charging process takes place on a fireproof surface in a fire-resistant environment.

4A Carefully open the battery compartment.
4B Carefully remove the charging cable and connect to the charging socket 1E. The plug should slide easily into the charging socket - DO NOT USE FORCE, if the plug is not correctly inserted into the charging socket, the model can be damaged and, under certain circumstances, cause injury.
4C Switch on the remote control. The Power LED on the remote control turns green as soon as charging begins. The charging process is complete when the Power LED turns red.

The model can fly for approx. 5-7 minutes after charging for approx. 30-35 minutes.

5 START PREPARATION

5A Press the ON/OFF switch 2A to switch on the remote control. The Power IFD 2D flashes.
58 Move the ON/OFF switch 10 to ON. Place the model on a flat, solid base so that its tail points toward you.
5C Then briefly move the control for thrust 2B forward and back again. After a few seconds, the Power LED on the remote control becomes continuously red. Now the helicopter is ready to start. After the flight, first switch off the helicopter, then the remote control.

6 TRIM ADJUSTMENT OF THE CONTROL

Correct trimming is a basic requirement for the helicopter to fly perfectly. 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 helicopter begins to automatically rotate clockwise quickly or slowly ...

If the model automatically rotates clockwise quickly or slowly, tap the left turn button 2C until the model no longer rotates automatically.

6B

If the helicopter begins to automatically rotate anti-clockwise quickly or slowly ...

If the model automatically rotates anti-clockwise quickly or slowly, tap the right trim button 2C until the helicopter no longer rotates automatically.

7 FLIGHT CONTROL

7A Take off or increase altitude by carefully moving the control for thrust 2A forward.

7B Land or decrease altitude by moving the control for thrust 2A backward. Only minimal corrections to the controller are necessary to ensure smoothing flying of the helicopter!

7C To fly along a left-handed curve, carefully move the control for forward/ backward and clockwise/anti-clockwise rotation 2B to the left, as long as the helicopter tail is facing toward the pilot.

7D To fly along a right-handed curve, carefully move the control for forward/ backward and clockwise/anti-clockwise rotation 2B to the right, as long as the helicopter tail is facing toward the pilot.

7E Fly forward by moving the control for forward/backward flight and right/ left rotation 2B carefully forward.

7F Fly backward by moving the control for forward/backward flight and clockwise/anti-clockwise rotation 2B carefully back.

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.
  In order to fly along a curve, it often suffices to tap the control for forward/back and clockwise/anti-clockwise rotation very slightly in the respective direction. There is a general tendency during preliminary attempts at flight to operate the model's controls too aggressively. The control for forward/backward and clockwise/anti-clockwise rotation should always be moved slowly and carefully. Never fast and fiftly.
• 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.

SUITABLE FLYING ENVIRONMENT:

The location in which the helicopter is lown should fulfil the following criteria:
- It should be an indoor location without any wind. Insolar 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 - including the pilot - are at least 1-2 metres removed from the aircraft before flight begins.
- Always watch the aircraft to ensure it does not fly into and injure the pilot, other people or animals.
