Always turn the Transmitter on first and ensure the idle up
switch is off. With the AXE Mini EP RTF sitting still plug the
battery into the ESC. The AXE Mini EP RTF will need to sit
still for 10 seconds so the gyro can initialize and can
determine center. If the AXE Mini EP RTF is moved during
this initialization, then the gyro will not operate properly.
There is a safety built into the AXE Mini EP RTF that prevents
the motor from activating unless the collective stick has been
lowered to its lowest position. If the motor won’t run and turn the
main blades, please make sure the collective stick is all the way
down and leave it there for two seconds.
Transmitter Controls
All controls are described with the tail pointing directly toward
you. This is the best way to start out since it keeps the control
inputs orientated the same direction. Once you become
comfortable you can work on side in and nose in hovering.
Trainer System – You can use a cable to connect two
transmitters together and a instructor can take and give control
back with the release of a switch. Be careful not to hit this
switch while in flight as it disables the transmitter output.
The idle up switch is used for forward flight and aerobatics.
This switch raises the main rotor RPM and also changes the
lowest position on the throttle stick to around 40% throttle.
This allows the AXE Mini EP RTF to perform aerobatics and
inverted flight. This can be a dangerous switch since it
raises the throttle. Be extremely careful not to hit this
switch accidentally or the motor will instantly come on
to at least 40% power.
Moving the cyclic stick right will cause the helicopter to tilt
right and start moving that direction.
Moving the cyclic stick left will cause the helicopter to tilt left
and start moving in that direction.
Moving the cyclic stick backwards (towards you) will cause the
helicopter to tilt backwards and start moving that direction.
Moving the cyclic stick forward (away from you) will cause
the helicopter to tilt forward and start moving that direction.
