Attention: The battery must cool down for 10 to 15 minutes before charging and
after every flight. Otherwise, the battery in the aircraft can be damaged. The charging
process is electronically monitored, but do not leave it unsupervised.
• Switch off the helicopter and the remote control.
• Carefully insert the charge cable in the charge socket of the helicopter (4A). The plug
must be gently inserted in the charge socket – DO NOT USE FORCE. If the plug is not
correctly inserted in the charge socket, the helicopter can be damaged and thus may,
under certain circumstances, entail a risk of injury.
• Switch on the remote control, the power LED blinks red (4B).
• Move the thrust control to full throttle and back to zero; the power LED illuminates
orange (4C).
• The charging process is complete as soon as the LED illuminates red.
• After the charging process, switch the power switch to "OFF" and disconnect the
charge cable from the helicopter.
After a charge time of approx. 60 minutes with the USB charge cable the heli-
copter can fly for approx. 6-8minutes.
You can also charge your helicopter with the accompanying USB cable:
• Switch off the helicopter.
• Carefully insert the charge cable in the charge socket of the helicopter (4D). The plug
must be gently inserted in the charge socket – DO NOT USE FORCE. If the plug is not
correctly inserted in the charge socket, the helicopter can be damaged and thus may,
under certain circumstances, entail a risk of injury.
• Insert the USB plug in an open USB port.
• The charging process is complete as soon as the USB plug illuminates.
• After the charging process is complete, disconnect the USB plug from the USB port
and the helicopter.
5 STarT PreParaTION
The thrust control (the left control on the remote control) must point down before
switching on(5A). Then set the control switch of the remote control to the „ON" posi-
tion; the Power LED begins blinking red (5B). Now move the thrust control to full
throttle and back to zero; the power LED then illuminates continuously. Select the
channel A, B or C with the channel selector. Now set the ON/OFF switch on the right
side of the helicopter to the "ON" position (5C). Place the helicopter on the ground so
that the tail points toward you (5D) . The LEDs on the helicopter begin to blink. After
three seconds the LEDs illuminate continuously. The helicopter is now ready to start.

3A Unscrew and remove the cover.
3B Insert 6 x 1.5 V AA batteries and pay
attention to the polarity specifications,
as indicated in the battery compart-
ment.
3C Close the battery cover and secure
with the screw.
6 TrIM aDJUSTMeNT OF The CONTrOl
The correct trim is a basic requirement for fault-free flying behaviour of the helicop-
ter. The adjustment is easy, but requires some patience and feel. 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 automatically
rotates clockwise...
If the helicopter begins to automati-
cally rotate clockwise quickly or slowly,
rotate the left/right trim adjustment
anti-clockwise until the helicopter no
longer rotates automatically.
7 FlIghT CONTrOl
7A In order to start or gain altitude,
carefully move the thrust control
forward.
7C To fly forward, carefully move the
directional control forward.
7E To fly along a left-handed curve,
carefully move the directional control
to the left, as long as the helicopter
tail is facing toward the pilot.
FlyINg MUlTIPle helICOPTerS SIMUlTaNeOUSly
Up to three pilots can fly their helicopters simultaneously! To do so, proceed as follows:
• Pilot 1 switches his/her remote control on and selects channel A.
• Pilot 1 switches on his/her helicopter. After the LEDs on the helicopter are continu-
ously illuminated, the helicopter is set to Channel A.
• Pilot 1 sets his/her remote control aside without switching off the remote control or
helicopter.
7B
If the helicopter automatically
rotates anti-clockwise ...
If the helicopter begins to automati-
cally rotate anticlockwise quickly or
slowly, rotate the left/right trim ad-
justment clockwise until the helicopter
no longer rotates automatically.
7B Move the thrust control back for
landing or to fly lower. Only minimal
corrections of the controller are neces-
sary for a smoothing flying behaviour
of the helicopter!
7D To fly backward, pull the control
back carefully.
7F To fly along a right-handed curve,
carefully move the directional control
to the right, as long as the helicopter
tail is facing toward the pilot.
