Product Overview

The Eachine E180 is a flybarless, remote-controlled helicopter featuring a 6-channel system and dual brushless direct drive motors. It supports both 3D aerobatic flight and stable 6G (gyro-stabilized) flight modes, making it suitable for pilots of varying skill levels.

Key Features:

• Flybarless design for improved efficiency and stability.
• 3D/6G system switchable for different flight experiences.
• Dual brushless motors for powerful and direct drive.
• Compatible with FUTABA S-FHSS 2.4GHz radio systems.
• Durable construction for resilience.

Transmitter Operation

The included transmitter provides full control over the helicopter's flight. It features:

• Control sticks for throttle, pitch, roll, and yaw.
• Switches for selecting flight modes (3D/6G) and adjusting trims.
• A power button to turn the transmitter on/off.
• An LCD screen displaying critical flight information such as battery voltage, control inputs, and mode status.

Refer to the transmitter's specific manual for detailed button and switch functions.

Flight Modes: 3D vs. 6G

6G Mode (Gyro Stabilized): This mode is ideal for beginners. The helicopter's internal gyroscope provides enhanced stability, automatically correcting for wind or pilot input errors. It limits the helicopter's attitude to prevent crashes.

3D Mode (Aerobatic): This mode is for experienced pilots. It disables the self-stabilization, allowing for advanced aerobatic maneuvers such as flips, rolls, and inverted flight.

A switch on the transmitter allows seamless transition between these modes during flight.

Battery and Charging ?

The helicopter is powered by a rechargeable LiPo battery. Always use the provided charger.

• Charging Time: Approximately X hours (refer to battery specifications).
• Charging Indicator: The charger's LED will indicate charging status (e.g., red while charging, green when full).
• Battery Safety: Never leave a charging battery unattended. Do not charge damaged batteries. Store batteries in a fire-safe bag.

Maintenance and Care ⚙️

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity.

• Clean the helicopter after each flight, especially the blades and motor.
• Check for loose screws or connections.
• Replace worn or damaged blades promptly.
• Store the helicopter and transmitter in a cool, dry place.

Troubleshooting

Problem: Helicopter does not respond to transmitter.

Solution: Ensure both transmitter and helicopter batteries are charged. Check that the transmitter and receiver are properly bound. Verify the correct model is selected on the transmitter.

Problem: Helicopter is unstable in flight.

Solution: Ensure the correct flight mode (6G) is selected for beginners. Check for damage to blades or control surfaces. Ensure the helicopter is properly balanced.
