LED INDICATOR/MODE

DESCRIPTION

Selects the fl ight mode. Always try the F3C fl ight mode fi rst and if
you determine that the gyro is not aggressive enough, then try the 3D
fl ight mode. The F3C Flight Mode will satisfy most pilots.

* Default Setting

WARNING!

Always make small (1%) adjustments to the tail rotor D/R or
EPA once the value exceeds 100%. Over 100%, it is possible
to exceed the sensor’s Angular Velocity Sensing Range
(+/- 800° per second). The gyro will then no longer control
the pirouette rate or consistency. The pirouette rate will be
extremely fast.

If you experiment with the ultra-fast pirouette rate, make
sure that your fl ight battery and fuel tank are secure. Also be
certain that your model’s tail rotor drive train is up to the task.
