currents have a big effect on the stability of the quadcopter. Be patient and try
to anticipate where the quadcopter will move. Remember: Small corrections!
Landing
From a steady hover, slowly decrease power until the quad settles onto
the ground.
Basic Maneuvers
Pirouettes – Add a small amount of left stick (left or right) to rotate the quad.
Rotating the quad 360° is called a pirouette.
Forward Flight – From a hover, point the nose away from you and push
the right stick forward. (Small movements!) To stop, pull back slightly to slow
down and then move the stick to center. During fl ight, you may have to add or
reduce throttle to maintain a constant altitude.
Flips – To perform fl ips, fi rst adjust the mode rate (see page 9) to 75 (this is
gyro gain if using another heli radio). The quad will be extremely agile, so be
careful for normal fl ying. Perform fl ips at higher altitudes to give you room to
recover. Push full power and move the right stick full in any direction. Hold until
the quad is upright and then move the stick as needed to stabilize the machine.
We found 75 is a good starting point for larger and easier to control fl ips. You
can move up from there if you want quicker fl ips. However, the faster the fl ips
the harder it is to recover. Have fun!
GOOD LUCK AND GREAT FLYING!
