Trim Adjustments
During flight, it may be necessary to make some small adjustments to the rudder trim in order to prevent the nose/
tail of the model from "drifting" to the left or right when the rudder stick is in the neutral position. Typically, only a small
amount of adjustment may be necessary.
Note: It is always best to avoid sudden temperature and environmental condition changes when using a gyro.
For example, it is best to not fly a model on a very hot (or cold) day immediately after removing it from
an air-conditioned (or heated) vehicle. It is also best to keep the gyro out of direct sunlight and away from
any heat-generating sources on the model.
To help the gyro better acclimate to temperature and environmental conditions at the flying field, it is best to let your
Blade SR stand in the environment for approximately 10–15 minutes before flying, allowing the temperature of the
gyro sensor to stabilize. If you do not allow the temperature to stabilize, you may experience radical trim changes that
require significant adjustments of the rudder trim during flight.

Servo Mode Setting

The G110 is equipped with a switch and software that allows its performance to be optimized for use with most analog
and some digital servos. The servo mode selection switch is found on the side of the gyro.
However, because the Blade SR uses an ESC and motor to control the tail, you must be certain that the servo mode
selection switch on the gyro is set to standard servo mode to ensure proper response and performance of the gyro. If
it is set to digital servo mode, the electronic speed control and tail motor will not respond properly to inputs from the
gyro or transmitter. This could even cause failure of the motor, ESC or both.

Installing the Optional Training Gear

If the Blade SR is your first single-rotor and/or collective-pitch equipped helicopter model, we suggest that you install
the optional Training Gear Set (EFLH1527) before making your first flight. The training gear helps to further increase the
stability of the model while also providing added support and cushioning to prevent tip-overs and damage to the model
from abrupt landings.
Installing the training gear takes only a few minutes following these steps.
• The training gear set includes four plastic balls, four ball grommets, four training gear rods, four rod end
caps, four training gear rod to landing skid attachments and one training gear rod mounting base.
