remote control model helicopter from
Swann! We were going to tell you all about
how much fun these are, the tricks you can

going to get out of it, but we figure that if we
just talk about how to fly it, you'll discover
the fun for yourself!

- Page 2 Operating Instructions Recharging and Battery Replacement Ensure the helicopter is turned OFF before attempting to charge it. If left on, it won’t charge. Check the orientation of the power cable carefully when connecting it to the helicopter. If it feels tough to insert or you need to use force, it’s probably upside down! It’ll take 80 - 90 minutes to charge.
- Page 3 Basic Principles of Flight Moving up and down: The helicopter moves up and down by varying the speed of its main rotors (those two sets of big things that spin). You can control how fast these spin by using the left stick on the controller.
- Page 4 Operating Instructions Flying Guide Wind: Basically, these are (approximately) 1/20th scale helicopters. Full sized helicopters can’t fly in high winds – and neither can the models. If a full sized helicopter has difficulty overcoming 50mph winds, then the model will have the same difficulty with 2~3 mph winds (i.e. 1/20th as much). There’s nothing that can be done about this, it’s just physics.
- Page 5 Gyroscope The Air Force does not have a gyroscope, which means that there is no “dead zone” on the controls for the helicopter’s rotation. The upside of this is that it places you in direct control of the helicopter – it doesn’t pull any punches, nor will it fly itself.
