Flight Mode Description

In Stability Mode the helicopter fl ies similarly to a fi xed-
pitch helicopter (the bank angle is limited). When the cyclic
stick is released, the model will return to level.
In Intermediate Mode the bank angle is not limited. When
the cyclic stick is released the model will not return to
level. The head speed is slightly lower and the controls
have a "softer" feel. This mode is great for learning forward
fl ight and basic aerobatics, such as stall turns and loops.

Panic Recovery

If you get into distress while fl ying in any mode, push and
hold the Bind/Panic Switch and move the control sticks to
their neutral position. SAFE
return the aircraft to an upright level attitude, if the aircraft is
at a suffi cient height with no obstacles in its path.
NOTICE: Do not activate Panic Recovery if the helicopter
does not have suffi cient altitude for a succesful recovery.
Return the collective stick to 50% and release the Panic
Switch to turn off Panic Recovery and return to the current
fl ight mode.

Flying the mCP S

Consult your local laws and ordinances before
choosing a location to fl y your aircraft.
If this is your fi rst collective pitch helicopter, we suggest
getting assistance from an experienced helicopter pilot or
fl ying club until you are comfortable fl ying alone.
We recommend fl ying your aircraft outside in calm winds
or inside a large gymnasium. Always avoid fl ying near
houses, trees, wires and buildings. You should also be
careful to avoid fl ying in areas where there are many
people, such as busy parks, schoolyards or soccer fi elds.

In Agility Mode the bank angle is not limited. When the
cyclic stick is released the model will not return to level. The
head speed is also higher. This mode is great for 3D aerobat-
ics, such as stationary fl ips and tic tocs.
NOTICE: Before releasing the panic switch, make
sure the collective stick has been returned to the 50%
position. Once the panic switch has been released, full
negative collective becomes available, which could
cause the mCP S to descend rapidly.
• Panic Recovery is intended to provide the pilot with the
confi dence to continue to improve their fl ight skills.
• Move the collective stick to 50% and return all other
transmitter controls to neutral for the quickest recovery.
• Once the model has reached a level upright attitude, the
negative collective is reduced to prevent the user from
pushing the model into the ground.
It is best to fl y from a smooth fl at surface as this will allow
the model to slide without tipping over. Keep the helicopter
approximately 2 ft (600mm) above the ground. Keep the
tail pointed toward you during initial fl ights to keep the
control orientation consistent. Releasing the stick in Stabil-
ity Mode will allow the helicopter to level itself. Activating
the Panic Recovery button will level the helicopter quickly.
If you become disoriented while in Stability Mode, slowly
lower the throttle stick to land softly.
During initial fl ights, only attempt takeoff, landing and
hovering in one spot.
