5. Position the training gear so that the center mount is offset
to the left of helicopter center. This makes the helicopter lean
to the right and helps the helicopter lift off straight.

1. Remove the canopy by pulling one side off the
horizontal mount, then the other. Note: Be careful to not
widen the canopy too much, as it will separate the seam on
the bottom of the canopy.

2. Slide the charged battery into the battery mount.
Secure the battery with a rubber band across the top. DO
NOT connect the battery at this time.

3. Install the canopy by sliding it on to the horizontal mount.
It is best to fly on calm days with no wind. Find an area that
is clear of trees, power lines and other structures. A park or
schoolyard is good; a flying field for R/C helicopters is best.
It is best to find an area with a flat, smooth surface so the
helicopter’s training gear can slide. If you choose to fly
indoors, find a spacious area free of obstacles with a flat,
smooth floor. Make sure the area is at least ten feet square
or larger.
Most importantly, avoid groups of people, especially
children. The moving blades can be dangerous and cause
injury or damage.
Got your site selected? Great! Now let’s learn how to fly.
Piloting begins with learning a little about how your RotoFly
helicopter works. You control the helicopter with your
transmitter, by sending commands to equipment that rides
inside the model. The control sticks are used to maneuver
the helicopter in flight. Here’s how the transmitter sticks
control your helicopter.
THROTTLE
The up and down movement of the left stick controls the throttle.
This determines the RPM of the main rotor blades, which
ultimately controls the up and down movement of the helicopter.
Moving the throttle stick up makes the helicopter ascend.
Moving the throttle stick down makes the helicopter descend.
