SAFE Technology

Problem

Possible Cause

Solution

Control surfaces not at
neutral position when
transmitter controls are
at neutral

Control surfaces may not have been
mechanically centered from factory

Center control surfaces mechanically by
adjusting the U-bends on control linkages

Aircraft was moved after the fl ight battery
was connected and before sensors
initialized

Keep the Aircraft upright and immobile for 5
seconds after connecting the battery

While centering control surfaces, aircraft is
not level and in Beginner Mode

Center control surfaces only in experienced
mode

Aircraft fl ies incon-
sistently from fl ight to
fl ight

Trims are moved too far from neutral
position

Neutralize trims and mechanically adjust
linkages to center control surfaces

Aircraft is not upright and immobile after
battery is connected

Keep the Aircraft upright and immobile for 5
seconds after connecting the battery

Controls oscillate in
fl ight, (Aircraft rapidly
jumps or moves)

Rotor is unbalanced, causing excessive
vibration

Remove rotor and motor. Check motor shaft
for straightness and replace rotor if damaged

Aircraft does not con-
nect to transmitter after
battery is connected

Aircraft is not upright and immobile after
battery is connected

Keep the Aircraft upright and immobile for 5
seconds after connecting the battery

Problem

Possible Cause

Solution

Aircraft will not respond
to throttle but responds
to other controls

Throttle stick and/or throttle trim too high

Reset controls with throttle stick and throttle
trim at lowest setting

Throttle channel is reversed

Reverse throttle channel on transmitter

Motor disconnected from receiver

Open fuselage and make sure motor is
connected to the receiver

Extra motor noise or
extra vibration

Damaged rotor or motor

Replace damaged parts

Rotor out of balance

Balance or replace the rotor

Reduced fl ight time or
aircraft underpowered

Flight battery charge is low

Completely recharge fl ight battery

Flight battery damaged

Replace fl ight battery and follow fl ight battery
instructions

Flight conditions may be too cold

Make sure battery is warm before use

Battery capacity too low for fl ight conditions

Replace battery or use a larger capacity
battery

LED on receiver fl ashes
and aircraft will not bind
to transmitter (during
binding)

Transmitter too near aircraft during binding
process

Power off transmitter, move transmitter a
larger distance from aircraft, disconnect and
reconnect fl ight battery to aircraft and follow
binding instructions

Bind switch or button not held long enough
during bind process

Power off transmitter and repeat bind pro-
cess. Hold transmitter bind button or switch
until receiver is bound

Aircraft or transmitter is too close to large
metal object, wireless source or another
transmitter

Move aircraft and transmitter to another
location and attempt binding again
