LED Indicator on Flight Controller

SMART Throttle (BNF Only)

The new Spektrum ESC line features a telemetry function called SMART Throttle. SMART Throttle technology combines the throttle signal with ESC telemetry data on a standard three-wire servo connector. SMART ESCs can transmit current, voltage, ESC temperature, and mAh consumed. They can also transmit battery data from compatible Spektrum SMART batteries. SMART Throttle telemetry data is displayed on your transmitter like any other telemetry sensor.

For SMART Throttle to function, you must have a SMART Throttle ESC paired with a SMART Throttle telemetry receiver and a Spektrum DSMX receiver with telemetry. Only certain Spektrum products are compatible with SMART technology; consult your receiver and ESC manual for more information. Your transmitter may need to be updated for SMART features. (Visit www.spektrumrc.com to register and update your transmitter.)

To activate SMART telemetry:

1. Leave the vehicle powered on after binding the transmitter to the receiver.
2. Scroll to the telemetry screen.
3. Scroll to settings.
4. Select Auto Config.

To activate speed information using SMART telemetry:

1. After completing the initial SMART telemetry setup, leave the vehicle powered on.
2. Scroll to the telemetry screen.
3. Scroll to SMART ESC and select twice.
4. Scroll down to NEXT.
5. Enter the motor pole count and gear ratio (motor and gear ratio information is available in your vehicle's manual).

When the radio is on and connected to a receiver sending SMART data, the SMART logo will appear below the battery logo on the home screen, and a signal bar will appear in the upper left corner of the screen. Scrolling down past the servo monitor will bring up the SMART screens. Select ESC, battery, or both for display as you prefer.

Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC)

The ESC will progressively reduce power to the motor until it completely cuts off when the battery reaches 18V under load. This prevents the Li-Po battery from being discharged too deeply. Land immediately when the ESC activates the low voltage cutoff (LVC). Continuing to fly after LVC may damage the battery or cause a crash, or both. Damage from crashes and batteries damaged due to over-discharge are not covered by warranty. Continuously flying the helicopter until LVC activates will damage the helicopter battery. Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the aircraft after use to prevent trickle discharge. During storage, ensure the battery charge does not fall below 3V per cell.

Electronic Speed Controller Governor Function

The electronic speed controller (ESC) uses a rotor speed governor to maintain a constant speed in flight. The governor functions by maintaining a constant rotor speed throughout maneuvers and the flight battery discharge cycle. The throttle stick position determines the requested rotor speed, and even if throttle curves are used, they will have a constant value; all throttle curve positions are set to the same value. The minimum throttle curve position in normal flight mode must be set to 0 to ensure the motor can be turned off.

Transmitter Setup (BNF)

Program your transmitter before attempting to bind or fly the helicopter. Always start by creating a new model on the transmitter to ensure no current settings are inadvertently used. The transmitter programming values shown below apply to Spektrum transmitters. Files for models using Spektrum transmitters with Spektrum AirWare software can also be downloaded online at www.spektrumrc.com.

Flight Battery Installation

1. Lower the throttle.
2. Turn on the transmitter.
3. Center all trims.
4. To allow the ESC to arm and to prevent the rotors from starting when powered on, activate throttle hold and normal flight mode before connecting the flight battery.
5. Attach the hook side of the Velcro strap to the helicopter chassis and the loop side to the battery.
6. Install the flight battery in the helicopter. Secure the flight battery with a Velcro strap. Connect the battery lead to the ESC.

CAUTION: Ensure that the flight battery, wire, and connector do not come into contact with the motor. If they do, the motor, ESC, and battery may overheat, leading to a crash and material damage and injury.

7. The cyclic plate will center, indicating the aircraft is ready. The flight controller status LED will flash green once slowly when initialization is complete.

8. The helicopter motor will emit a series of tones, indicating the ESC is armed.

CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the ESC power cable when the aircraft is not in flight to prevent excessive discharge. Batteries discharged to a voltage below the minimum approved voltage may be damaged, resulting in reduced performance and a fire risk when recharged.

Transmitter-to-Receiver Binding

Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the unique code (called GUID - Globally Unique Identifier) of a specific transmitter. You need to "bind" your chosen Spektrum transmitter to the DSM2/DSMX technology receiver to ensure proper operation.

Binding Procedure

1. Program your transmitter using the Transmitter Setup section of this manual.
2. Connect the flight battery to the ESC.
3. Press the bind button on the remote receiver to initiate binding. The orange LED on the receiver will flash rapidly to indicate bind mode.
4. Set the throttle stick to the lowest position in normal mode.
5. Follow your specific transmitter's procedures to enter bind mode. The system will connect in a few seconds. Once connected, the orange LED on the receiver will become solid orange.
6. Disconnect the flight battery.

If you encounter problems, follow the binding instructions and refer to the transmitter's troubleshooting guide for further instructions. If needed, contact the appropriate Horizon Product Support department.

Throttle Hold

On an electric helicopter, throttle hold simply cuts the motor. You retain control of the cyclic and directional inputs. The blades will start to spin if throttle hold is OFF. For safety reasons, engage throttle hold whenever you need to touch the helicopter or check directional controls. Throttle hold also serves to cut the motor if control of the helicopter is lost, in case of a crash, or both.

Command Tests

CAUTION: Before flying, you must perform Direction and Cyclic tests. Failure to perform these tests, which ensure that the direction of the controls is not reversed, carries the risk of crashing the helicopter, resulting in material damage and personal injury.

Tail Rotor

1. Turn on the transmitter.
2. Engage throttle hold (TH HOLD) and set the transmitter to normal mode.
3. Connect the flight battery to the ESC.
4. Once initialization is complete, the FC6250HX LED will begin flashing green.
5. Move the directional stick to the right. The pitch slider on the anti-rotation collar should move towards the anti-rotation collar. If the pitch slider moves in the opposite direction, verify that the directional control reverse setting in the transmitter is set to normal.
6. Release the directional control. Manually turn the front of the helicopter to the left. The flight controller should compensate by moving the anti-rotation collar pitch slider towards the anti-rotation collar.

Cyclic

When using a flybarless rotor head, you control the cyclic rates, with the AR636A controlling the servos. You do not directly control the servos via the transmitter. It is normal for the cyclic plate to return slowly to its original position after a stick input, and for the servos not to move at the same speed as your control inputs.

1. Tilt the helicopter forward. The cyclic plate should tilt backward.
2. Tilt the helicopter to the left. The cyclic plate should tilt to the right.

Cyclic and Collective Control Test

Ensure throttle hold is engaged when performing directional control tests. Test controls before each flight to verify proper operation of servos, linkages, and parts. If controls do not respond as shown in the illustrations below, verify that the transmitter is programmed correctly before proceeding with the motor test.

Motor Test

Place the helicopter outdoors on a clean, flat, level surface (concrete or asphalt) and clear of obstacles. Always stay clear of moving rotor blades.

1. Before proceeding, confirm that TH HOLD is ON. The motor will emit a series of tones after the helicopter ESC is correctly armed.

WARNING: The motor will start to spin if you increase the throttle while throttle hold is disengaged.

2. Ensure the throttle stick is fully lowered. Verify that the transmitter is still set to normal flight mode. Disengage throttle hold to activate throttle control. Slowly increase the throttle until the blades begin to spin. The main blades spin clockwise when viewed from above. The tail rotor blades spin counter-clockwise when viewed from the side.

WARNING: Remain at least 10 meters (33 feet) away from the helicopter while the motor is running. Do not attempt to fly the helicopter at this time.

Panic Mode

If you find yourself in difficulty during flight, press the Bind/Panic switch, hold it, and center the controls. SAFE technology will allow your helicopter to stabilize if your aircraft is at a sufficient altitude without any obstacles in its path. Set the collective stick to 50% and release the Panic switch to disable Panic mode and return to the original flight mode.

NOTE: Before releasing the Panic switch, ensure the collective stick is at the 50% position. Once the Panic button is released, negative collective is available, which could cause the 230 S Smart to fall.

• This mode allows pilots who desire to improve their flight performance.
• Set the collective to 50% and return all other transmitter controls to neutral for the fastest assistance.
• Once the model has stabilized, negative collective is reduced, preventing the user from diving the model towards the ground.

Pre-flight Checklist

• Check all screws and ensure they are tight.
• Check belt tension and ensure it is neither too loose nor too tight.
• Check main rotor blades and tail rotor blades to ensure they are not damaged.
• Check all controls and ensure they move freely but do not come loose easily.
• Check the flight battery and transmitter battery to ensure they are fully charged.
• Check all cables to ensure they are not cut, pinched, exposed due to friction, and are securely fastened.
• Check all cable connections.
• Check gears and ensure no teeth are missing.
• Perform a complete control test.
• Check for proper servo operation.
• Check the secure attachment of the flight battery.
• Check the secure attachment of the receiver.

Piloting the Blade Fusion 360

CAUTION: Always fly the helicopter with the sun and wind at your back to avoid losing control in flight.

Familiarize yourself with local laws and regulations before flying your aircraft. Choose a large area, away from people and free of obstacles. You should perform your first flights outdoors with little wind. Always stay at least 10 meters (33 feet) away from the helicopter during flight. The Blade Fusion 360 is designed for outdoor flight.

Takeoff

Gently increase the throttle and hover at a height of at least 0.6 meters (24 inches), clear of ground effect.

CAUTION: Do not operate the aileron, elevator, or rudder controls before takeoff, as the helicopter may crash.

In Flight

The helicopter lifts off when the rotor head reaches sufficient speed. Hover at a low altitude to check your helicopter's proper operation. Do not use any trim; the flybarless design of the Blade Fusion 360 makes any trim unnecessary. Trim or sub-trim adjustment may cause unwanted drift or rotation of the helicopter. It is advisable to perform the first flights in normal mode with low cyclic and rudder throws until you are accustomed to the Blade Fusion 360's flight characteristics. Discover the throws that best suit your flying style.

Landing

Hover at a low altitude. Gently reduce the throttle until the helicopter has landed. Do not operate the aileron, elevator, or rudder controls during the helicopter's landing.

When the helicopter is in acrobatic mode:

• Rotor head speed is constant.
• The main rotor will increase its negative pitch when the throttle/collective stick moves from a center position to a low position. Negative pitch allows a helicopter to fly inverted and perform acrobatic maneuvers.

Switch from acrobatic mode to idle up mode during a hover, with the throttle stick fairly close to the center position. The helicopter may climb or descend when switching between modes due to differences in throttle and pitch curves.

WARNING: Do not use wooden main rotor blades on the Blade Fusion 360, as this may result in injury and/or material damage. Only use carbon fiber main blades approved for the Blade Fusion 360.

Gyro Gain Adjustment

• If the tail jitters or oscillates, decrease the gyro gain.
• In your transmitter's gyro menu, decrease the gyro gain values slightly each time until the helicopter is stable in a given flight mode.
• If the tail drifts in hover, increase the gyro gain.
• On your transmitter, increase the gyro gain values slightly each time until the tail stops jittering or oscillating. Then, decrease the gain until the tail stops jittering or oscillating in a given flight mode.

Helicopter Belt Tension

Excessive belt tension leads to power loss and faster belt wear. Insufficient belt tension leads to belt damage and loss of tail rotor control during flight.

To check correct belt tension:

1. Glance at the tail rotor drive belt through the opening on the rear of the main fuselage.
2. Use a hex wrench or standard screwdriver to apply pressure to the belt by inserting the tool through the opening.
3. Apply light pressure to the belt by pressing on the belt towards the left side of the tail boom.
4. The belt tension is correct if the side of the belt where pressure is applied reaches approximately halfway to the opposite side of the belt.

• a. If the side of the belt where pressure is applied reaches beyond the halfway point of the opposite belt side, the tension is too low.
• b. If the side of the belt where pressure is applied does not reach the halfway point of the opposite belt side, the tension is too high.

To adjust belt tension:

1. Unscrew the two screws on the horizontal stabilizer.
2. Unscrew the 2 screws on the rear of the main fuselage.
3. Slide the tail boom forward or backward to adjust belt tension.
4. Once the belt tension is correctly adjusted, retighten the 2 screws on the rear of the main fuselage.
5. Retighten the two screws on the horizontal stabilizer.

Post-Flight Inspections and Maintenance

Advanced Setup (Forward Programming)

Applies to Spektrum transmitters capable of forward programming, including DX6G2, DX7G2, DX6e, DX8e, DX8G2, DX9, DX18, DX20, NX6, NX8, NX10, iX12, iX20.

The default settings for the Fusion 360 are suitable for most users. We recommend flying with the default settings before making any adjustments. The Fusion 360 flight controller BNF can be programmed from any compatible Spektrum transmitter (visit SpektrumRC.com for more information). The flight controller included with BNF models has a range of adjustable parameters tailored to the Fusion 360 helicopter and is not designed for use in another aircraft. It is important to use the servos included with the BNF flight controller because the adjustable parameters available for the SPMAR6250HX are designed around the recommended servos. The range may not be sufficient for the helicopter to be properly set up using other servos.

Entering Advanced Settings Menu

With the helicopter bound to the transmitter and powered on, enter the Function List and select Forward Programming. The list of programming options and the range of available values for adjustment have been designed for this helicopter. Make small, progressive changes to one parameter at a time and test the changes in flight before changing the parameter or moving to another parameter.

Calibration Procedure:

If the helicopter has deviation problems, perform the following calibration. The calibration procedure may also be necessary after repairs following a crash.

1. Ensure the surface used for calibration is level.
2. Turn on the transmitter and helicopter and allow them to initialize.
3. Engage Throttle Hold.
4. Ensure the main motor wires are disconnected. Set the flight mode switch to Intermediate Mode (FM1, intermediate).
5. Using a bubble level as shown below, level the helicopter by placing a shim under the landing skid.

6. Enter the Function List and select Forward Programming.
7. Select System Setup.
8. Select Calibration.
9. Select Apply, and calibration will begin. The LED will flash yellow, indicating that calibration is proceeding normally. If the LED turns red, it indicates that the model is not level or has been moved, and calibration will restart.
10. When calibration is successful, the receiver LED will change to a slow flashing green, indicating that calibration is complete.
11. Perform the pre-flight checklist procedure before flying your model.

Factory Reset (Factory Reset)

If the Fusion 360 setup process results in undesirable flight performance, you can reset the settings to factory defaults by selecting the Factory Reset option in Forward Programming.

1. Enter the Function List.
2. Select Forward Programming.
3. Select System Setup.
4. Select Reset to Defaults.
5. Select Apply.
6. Perform the Setup->Swashplate->Sub Trim function and ensure the servos are trimmed correctly.
7. Perform the pre-flight checklist procedure before flying the model.

Advanced Setup (Non-Forward Programming)

Applies to Spektrum transmitters not capable of forward programming, including DX6i, DX7s, DX8.

Your Blade Fusion 360 has been configured at the factory and flight tested. Servo adjustment steps are generally only necessary under special circumstances, such as after a crash or replacement of a servo or linkage. For pilots flying with a transmitter incapable of forward programming, use the following procedures to perform servo adjustments and the calibration procedure. Advanced setup options must be entered within 20 seconds of initialization. After 20 seconds, you must turn off and restart to enter setup modes. Additionally, the combination of dual rates and travel adjustments must result in a launch greater than 65% to enter setup modes.

Entering Servo Adjustment Mode

1. Set the throttle stick to the lowest position.
2. Turn on the transmitter.
3. Install the flight battery in the helicopter chassis and secure it with the Velcro strap.
4. Connect the battery connector to the ESC.
5. Before initialization is complete, hold the left stick in the lower left corner and the right stick in the lower right corner as shown.
6. The servo adjustment mode is indicated by the cyclic servos jumping and then slowly returning to center.
7. Release the sticks and proceed to the next step.

Adjusting Servo Neutral Position

With the aircraft in Servo Adjustment mode, control stick and gyro inputs are disabled, and the servos remain in their neutral position. Check the servo arm positions to ensure they are perpendicular to the servos.

• If the arms are perpendicular to the servos, no adjustment is necessary. Exit servo adjustment mode.
• If one or more arms are not perpendicular to the servos, continue with the servo adjustment procedure.

While watching the cyclic servos, move the cyclic stick forward or backward and release. One of the servos will jump, indicating the selected servo. Move the cyclic stick forward or backward and release until the servo needing adjustment is selected. Once you have selected the servo you wish to adjust, move the cyclic stick left or right to adjust the servo's neutral position in the desired direction. If you wish to reset the current servo to its default neutral position, hold the directional control stick fully to the right for two seconds. The adjustment range is limited. If you cannot adjust the servo arm to be perpendicular to the servo, you must reset the servo to its default neutral position, remove the servo arm, and reinstall it on the servo as close to the perpendicular position as possible. You can then adjust the servo's neutral position using the left or right cyclic stick.

Cyclic Plate Upgrade

Before saving your adjustments and exiting servo adjustment mode, verify that the cyclic plate is level and that both main rotor blades are at 0 degrees. If not, adjust the linkages as necessary.

Saving Servo Adjustments

1. Set the throttle stick to the lowest position and release the sticks.
2. Move the tail rotor stick to the left and hold for four seconds to exit servo adjustment mode. The servos will jump to indicate a return to normal operation.
3. Release the tail rotor stick.
4. Reconnect the main drive motor to the ESC. Your aircraft is now ready to fly.

Calibration Procedure

If the helicopter exhibits deviation problems after completing the hover trim procedure, perform the following calibration. The calibration procedure may also be necessary after repairs following a crash.

To perform the calibration procedure:

1. Ensure the surface used for calibration is level.
2. Turn on the transmitter and helicopter and allow them to initialize.
3. Engage Throttle Hold.
4. Ensure the main motor is disconnected.
5. Using a bubble level as shown below, level the helicopter by placing a shim under the landing skid.

Bubble Level
