5. RANGE CHECK

Check that all controls operate without
interference at a minimum distance of 50
metres with transmitter and receiver aerials
extended.
WARNING!
At distances of greater than 50 metres, it will
become impossible to see your Twister CP V2.1
clearly enough to be able to control it safely. Do not
fly at 50 metres distance or greater.
We strongly recommend you fly no further away
than 15 metres.

6. CONTROL OPERATION CHECK

▼ 1. The helicopter swashplate should be
perfectly horizontal when viewed from
the side and horizontal with the flybar and
paddles when viewed from the side of the
helicopter. If it is not, adjust the transmitter
trims until it is.
▼ 2. Roll cyclic - Move the roll (aileron) stick to
the left. The swashplate should tilt to the
left. If it tilts the opposite way, reverse the
roll (AIL) reverse switch on the front of the
transmitter.
▼ 3. Fore and aft cyclic - Move the fore and aft
(elevator) stick forward. The swashplate
should tilt forward. If it tilts the opposite way,
reverse the fore and aft (ELE) reverse switch
on the front of the transmitter.
▼ 4. Slowly move the throttle trim forward until
the tail rotor unit rotates but the main rotor
does not.
▼ 5. Move the tail rotor stick gently to the right.
The nose of the helicopter should try to
swing right (whilst the tail swings left).
▼ 6. Throttle - Slowly push the throttle stick
forward and check that the main rotors start
to rotate. Then immediately throttle back.
