Whether you’re looking to advance from your first CX heli or quad, or you're an experienced heli pilot looking for some flying fun around the house, the Ares (air-eez) Nanos FP 75 is the product for you. When flying in stabilized mode, the 6-axis system allows you to fly the Nanos FP 75 comfortably with control similar to that of a CX heli.
Safety Precautions Failure to use this product in the intended manner as described in the following instruction can result in damage and/or personal injury. A Radio Controlled (RC) airplane/helicopter/quadcopter is not a toy! If misused it can cause serious bodily harm and damage to property�...

• Never operate your model if the voltage of the batteries in the transmitter is too low. • Always operate your model in an open area away from obstacles, people, vehicles, buildings, etc� • Carefully follow the directions and warnings for this and any optional support equipment (chargers, rechargeable batteries, etc.).
FCC Information This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Flight Checklist PLEASE NOTE: This checklist is NOT intended to replace the content included in this instruction manual. Although it can be used as a quick start guide, we strongly suggest reading through this manual completely before proceeding. • Always turn the transmitter on first •...

• You must charge the LiPo battery in a safe area away from flammable materials. • Never charge the LiPo battery unattended at any time. When charging the battery you should always remain in constant observation to monitor the charging process and react immediately to any potential problems that may occur.
• When transporting or temporarily storing the battery, the temperature range should be from approximately 40–100°F. Do not store the battery or model in a hot garage, car or direct sunlight whenever possible. If stored in a hot garage or car the battery can be damaged or even catch fire.

To charge the flight battery, plug the included charge cord into the rear of the transmitter. Plug the battery into the other end of the charge cord. The LED on the front of the transmitter will light green when charging and go out when the battery is charged.
Transmitter Details The Nanos FP 75 includes a 5-channel Helicopter Transmitter with 2.4GHz technology, stability mode and digital trims. Flight Mode Switch Throttle Trim Elevator Trim (inoperative) Elevator/Aileron Throttle/Rudder Control Stick Control Stick Rudder Trim Aileron Trim (inoperative) ON/OFF Switch Transmitter Dual Rates This helicopter is equipped with a dual rate functionality, which affects maneuverability in 3-axis flight.
Page 13
HIGH rate mode. To toggle the dual rate setting, unplug the helicopter and turn off the transmitter. Then, power on the transmitter and plug the battery in. Quickly move the right stick on the transmitter to bottom left corner and hold it there until the status LED blinks in a short-short-long pattern.
Flight Controls In the event you are not familiar with the controls of the Nanos FP 75 please take the time to familiarize yourself with them as follows and before proceeding with your first flight: Stick UP to Ascend Stick Down to Descend The left-hand stick on the transmitter controls both the throttle (climb/descend) and rudder (yaw left/right) channels.
Page 15
Stick Down Stick Up Backward Flight Forward Flight The right-hand stick controls both the elevator (pitch fore/ aft) and aileron (roll) channels. Pushing the stick forward will pitch the nose of the helicopter downward, allowing it to be flown forward. Pulling the stick down pitches the nose of the helicopter upward, allowing it to be flown backwards.
Installing Flight Battery Remove the canopy from the helicopter and install the fully charged flight battery on the hook-and-loop holder with the battery wires facing the front. First turn on the transmitter and then plug the battery into the 4-in-1 controller being careful to maintain correct polarity...
Initialization To initialize the helicopter, first power on the transmitter and then plug in the battery, replace the canopy, and place the helicopter on the ground, making sure that it is not moving. The LED on the control unit will blink rapidly for three seconds to indicate that the helicopter is in bind mode.

be used to fine tune the neutral pitch and roll angles of the helicopter. If the helicopter has a tendency to move to the right with the cyclic stick centered, left trim should be added, and vice versa. Similarly, if the helicopter has a tendency to move forward with the cyclic stick centered, back trim should be applied.
Throttle and rudder trim buttons have no effect in either flight mode. Trimming in 6-Axis If your Nanos FP75 drifts to the side or forward/backward in 6-axis flight, this drift can be eliminated by adding trim using the cyclic trim buttons on the transmitter. If the helicopter is drifting toward the right, the left aileron trim button should be pressed until the drift has been eliminated.
Trimming in 3-Axis Please note that the helicopter must be in 3-axis mode for mechanical trim, and this trimming should never be performed with the helicopter in 6-axis mode. Any adjustments to 6-axis flight should be achieved by using the cyclic trim buttons on the transmitter. If the helicopter tends to consistently roll or pitch in a particular direction in 3-axis mode, it may be necessary to mechanically trim the helicopter to achieve optimal flight.
the same amount by twisting the plastic pieces clockwise the same number of turns. If the helicopter tends to pitch backward, the servo pushrods should be adjusted so that the swashplate leans further forward. To do this, both pushrods should be extended by the same amount by twisting the plastic pieces counterclockwise the same number of turns.

After you’ve properly trimmed the helicopter and become familiar with its handling and capabilities you may be able to fly in other smaller and less open areas too. However, it’s always more fun to fly indoors in spaces that are larger and/or more open when possible. Outdoor Flying Areas/Conditions When flying outdoors it’s best to fly the Nanos FP 75 at a local park, schoolyard or other area that’s large enough and...
Flying (General) Now that you’ve selected a suitable flying area you’re ready to fly! And when making your first flights we suggest following these steps: •With the mode switch is 6-axis mode (down) slowly raise the left-hand/throttle stick to increase the speed of the main rotor blades and until the model begins to lift off.

• While attempting to establish a low-level hover out of ground effect (approximately 20–24 inches high or higher) you can check to see if any trim adjustments are required to help keep the helicopter from constantly drifting in various directions. If you find that the helicopter constantly drifts without any directional control input it may be best to land the model before making any adjustments to the trim settings using the trim levers on the transmitter (you can...

inputs as minimal as possible to prevent over-controlling the helicopter� • Continue to practice until you’re comfortable hovering the helicopter at approximately 20–24 inches of altitude. Then you can transition to hovering the helicopter at higher altitudes of approximately 3–4 feet (0.9–1.2 meters). •...
Tx/Rx Binding/Linking Binding/linking is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the Globally Unique Identifier (GUID) code of a single specific transmitter. These steps outline the binding/ linking process of the 5-Channel Helicopter Transmitter (AZSH2281) and receiver/control unit in the Nanos FP 75 Press this button while turning on Tx Start by plugging in your fully charged battery to the 4-in-1 unit.
