Warning: Please turn off the battery after use. Prolonged power-on may reduce battery life.
Notice Before Flight
- Ensure the batteries for both the transmitter (TX) and helicopter are fully charged.
- Before turning on the TX, please make sure the throttle control is at the lowest position and the TH.HOLD and 3D mode switches are in the back position (back cover direction).
- Make sure the TX has paired with the helicopter. If not, carry out the pairing process.
- Please turn on the TX first, then connect the battery to the helicopter and wait until it paired with the TX. When turning off, please unplug the power from the helicopter first, and then turn off the TX.
- Keep away from people, cars, high-tension power lines, and water sources such as ponds, lakes, rivers, etc.
Bind With Transmitter
If you have the RTF package, the helicopter is already paired by the factory. If you need to pair again, please follow these steps:
- First, turn on the transmitter and make sure the throttle stick is at the bottom position, and the 3D/IDLE switch is in the OFF position.
- Remove the canopy for activating the binding switch.
- Apply power to the helicopter. The red LED flashes slowly. Press the code button for 1 second, then the red lamp will go out and be ready for pairing.
- When the red and blue lights turn on solid, the pairing has been successful.
- While carrying out the pairing, ensure no other transmitters are operating nearby to avoid unintended pairing.
Tips: This product is compatible with all FUTABA 2.4GHZ S-FHSS transmitters.
Notice:
- When the transmitter is turned on and the throttle hold switch is in the ON position, the transmitter will beep as a warning. The switch should be switched to the OFF position.
- When the transmitter is turned on and the 3D switch is in the ON position, the transmitter will beep. The switch should be switched to the OFF position.
- When the transmitter is turned on and the throttle stick is not in the lowest position, the transmitter will beep as a warning. The throttle stick should then be pulled down to the lowest position.

About the Transmitter

Flight Battery Installment
1) Debugging pitch of thread
Explanation: The product has passed inspection before leaving the factory. The user needs to re-adjust the pitch of the thread after replacing the steering gear or related accessories.
To ensure safety, disconnect the main motor power cord during commissioning to avoid personal injury caused by motor rotation during commissioning.
The helicopter comes with a special pitch of thread ruler for helicopters that can be adjusted more accurately. First, bind the aircraft to the code, and the transmitter in 6G self-stabilization mode.
Press the code matching key on the flight control board 4 times. The mainboard will flash red quickly and enter the debugging mode.
Use the transmitter to control the aileron rocker, lift rocker, and direction rocker for debugging until the swashplate is balanced and the blades are at 0 pitch of thread. After debugging is completed, press the motherboard link key to exit debugging. The motherboard will resume the red light and the blue light will be on, then you can fly.
2) Sensitivity adjustment
Users can adjust different lock perceptions according to their needs. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to adjust. Turn clockwise to increase the lock perception, and turn counterclockwise to decrease the lock perception.
- 1 Lock tail sensitivity
- 2 Swashplate perception
- 3 Swashplate sensitivity
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| 1. LED on receiver flashes constantly with no responses after connecting batteries to transmitter. | Transmitter is not bound to receiver. Pairing of the transmitter and receiver failed. | Re-pair (Refer to P.5, Programming your Transmitter). |
| 2. The helicopter has no response after connecting batteries to receiver. | Check whether the transmitter and receiver are connected to power; check the voltage of the transmitter and receiver; Battery pole flake contact is not good. | Open the transmitter, make sure the batteries connecting is good. Replace and charge transmitter batteries. Make sure the battery pole flake contact is good. |
| 3. When increasing throttle, the main motor does not start and the LED on the Receiver flashes constantly. | Low battery voltage, batteries connection is not good. | Replace and charge the batteries, reconnect the batteries to the receiver board. |
| 4. Helicopter takes off immediately once the batteries and receiver are connected. | Didn't put the throttle to the lowest position. | Put the throttle pole at the lowest position before opening the transmitter. |
| 5. Helicopter vibrates or shakes in flight. | Damaged rotor blades, bent main and FS shafts, or blade grips too tight causing the main rotor movement not smoothly. | Replace the main rotor blades, bent main or feathering shafts, loosen the blade grips. |
| 6. Feathering shaft or main shaft is bent. FS screw is not tight enough. | Possible broken gear in the servo, causing shakes. The loose between the swashplates. | Replace the lateral axis. Tighten the lateral axis screw. Change the Bearing. Remove the servo and clear debris. Compress the swash plates. Change the tail rotor blades. |
| 7. Main rotor blades shake during flight. | Possible broken gear in the servo, causing shakes. The loose between the swashplates. | Remove the servo, and clear debris. Compress the swash plates. Change the tail rotor blades. |
| 8. The sound of the main rotor becomes softer or drops in head speed. | Low battery voltage of helicopter. | Land the helicopter immediately and charge the battery or change to a fully charged battery. |
| 9. Helicopter has no reaction or does not fly smoothly. | Failure of binding. | Rebind the helicopter and transmitter, make sure you place the helicopter at a steady level close to the transmitter. |
| 10. 3D/6G model helicopter appeared yaw. | Swashplate servos do not go back to mid-position or broken. Helicopter requires to calibrate in 6G mode. | Recenter the servo arms. Replace the servo. Refer to 6G mode calibration procedure. |
| 11. Helicopter took off spin to the left. | Tail motor power shortage, loose blades, tail motor damage. | Check with the tail rotor blades and the motor shaft. If loose, replace tail rotor blade. Motor damage: Replace the tail motor. |
| 12. Helicopter power is turned supreme speed governor electric sound. | Brushless speed governor fault or poor contact. | Check the connectors, replace speed governor. |

Notice for beginners:
- Please fly with an instructor until you are confident enough.
- Before flying the model for the first time, you need to fully understand all of the functions provided by the transmitter and the responses of all of the switches.
- Don't attempt to fly in 3D mode yet. Practice flying and hovering in 6G mode until you are familiar with it. Then you can practice flying and hovering flight under 3D mode. Once you are familiar with these two modes, you can vary out practicing inverted flight with an instructor.
- Practice hovering flight of inverted moves to build a foundation for more brilliant flying.
- This model is not a toy and it can cause damages to people and property. If unsure, it is recommended that you practice with a simulator on a computer before doing real 3D fly with this model to minimize the damage.
