4.2 Remote Control Battery Installation
The remote control requires 3 AA batteries (not included). Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote control and insert the batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.
4.3 Binding the Helicopter to the Remote Control
- Ensure the helicopter battery is fully charged and disconnected.
- Turn on the remote control. The LCD display will light up.
- Connect the battery to the helicopter. The helicopter's indicator light will flash.
- Place the helicopter on a flat, stable surface.
- Move the throttle stick (left stick) to its lowest position, then quickly move it to the highest position and back to the lowest. The helicopter's indicator light will stop flashing and remain solid, indicating successful binding.
- If binding fails, repeat the steps.

5. Operating Modes
The GoolRC WLtoys K110S offers two distinct flight modes, 3D and 6G, which can be switched via the remote control to suit different skill levels and flight preferences.
5.1 6G Mode (6-Axis Gyroscope)
- This mode utilizes a 6-axis gyroscope for enhanced stability, making it ideal for beginners.
- Provides stable flight and stronger wind resistance, especially suitable for outdoor flying.
- The helicopter maintains a level attitude automatically, simplifying control.

5.2 3D Mode (3-Axis Gyroscope)
- This mode uses a 3-axis gyroscope, offering responsive control for advanced maneuvers.
- Allows for aerobatics such as rolls, inverted flight, hurricanes, and pendulums.
- Recommended for experienced pilots due to its increased responsiveness and reduced stabilization.

6. Basic Flight Operations
Before your first flight, ensure you are in an open area free from obstacles, people, and animals. Always perform a pre-flight check.
6.1 Pre-Flight Check
- Verify the helicopter and remote control batteries are fully charged.
- Ensure the helicopter is securely bound to the remote control.
- Check all blades and components for any damage or loose parts.
- Confirm the flight mode (3D or 6G) is set according to your skill level.
6.2 Take-off and Landing
- Place the helicopter on a flat, level surface.
- Slowly push the throttle stick upwards to increase rotor speed. The helicopter will begin to lift off.
- For landing, slowly pull the throttle stick downwards. Reduce power gradually until the helicopter gently touches down.
- After landing, immediately pull the throttle stick to its lowest position and hold for a few seconds to ensure the motors stop completely.
6.3 Hovering Midpoint Adjustment
The helicopter allows for adjustment of its hovering midpoint. Refer to the remote control's LCD display and menu options to enter the setting mode and fine-tune the hovering point for optimal stability.

7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your helicopter.
- Blade Inspection: Regularly check main and tail blades for cracks, chips, or deformation. Replace damaged blades immediately using the provided spare parts.
- Motor Care: Keep the brushless main motor and coreless tail motor free from dust and debris. Avoid operating in sandy or dusty environments.
- Battery Storage: Store batteries in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Do not store fully charged or fully discharged for extended periods.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the helicopter body and remote control. Avoid using solvents or harsh chemicals.
- Screw Tightness: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they are tight.

8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Helicopter does not respond to remote control. | Not bound, low battery (helicopter or remote), remote control off. | Ensure remote is on and has fresh batteries. Re-bind the helicopter. Charge helicopter battery. |
| Helicopter flies erratically or is unstable. | Damaged blades, incorrect trim settings, strong wind, gyroscope calibration issue. | Check and replace damaged blades. Adjust trim settings on the remote. Fly in calmer conditions. Re-calibrate gyroscope (refer to remote manual for specific steps). |
| Helicopter does not lift off. | Low battery, damaged main motor/blades, throttle not high enough. | Charge battery. Inspect main motor and blades for damage. Gradually increase throttle. |
| Tail rotor not spinning or ineffective. | Damaged tail rotor, debris in tail motor, tail motor malfunction. | Inspect and replace tail rotor. Clear any obstructions from the tail motor. If motor is faulty, contact support. |
