YOU GET MAXIMUM ENJOYMENT FROM YOUR NEW TOY!
It is very important that you charge the helicopter before the first time you use it, as
if this is not done you may damage the battery and result in the helicopter not being
able to charge properly. In order to increase its life and prevent charging problems
you should:
Allow the battery to cool-down (5 minutes after each flight) before you attempt to
charge it. Allow the battery to cool-down (5 minutes after each charge) before you
attempt to fly it. When flying, as soon as you think the helicopter starts to lose a bit
of power, stop using it and after letting it cool down, start the charging process. If
you fly it until the battery is totally discharged (can also happen if you leave the
helicopter ON after flying it), you can damage the battery and cause charging
problems.
If the person flying the helicopter has not flown remote control helicopters before,
they should just raise the helicopter about 50cm off the ground, and then
immediately settle it down again. This should be done several times in order to
get used to the controllers. This will prevent the helicopter being crash damaged,
as we cannot offer a refund or replacement if the helicopter has been crash
damaged.
If you start to loose control of the helicopter while flying, most people's instinct is
to try to keep powering the helicopter to regain control, but this usually results in
crash damage occurring. The best thing to do is to release all controls so the
helicopters blades stop spinning. The helicopter just falling to the floor will rarely
cause damage, but crashes with the blades turning can damage it.
If you do damage the blades, you can repair them with the included spares, or
buy a new spares pack from Lightspeedhelicopter.co.uk If the helicopter is not
lifting off properly and you think it is fully charged, try tighten all screws around
the Balance Bar as lose screws can result in loss of blade turning power.
INSTALLING THE PHONE TRANSMITTER
Slot the transmitter into the 3.5mm headphone socket on your phone (or iPad/iPod),
and then ensure your phone volume is set to the maximum.
Flip the display interface on your phone
If the helicopter spins left or right without being
told to, adjust the trimmer dial
If pressed the helicopter will perform a demo
Press for increased speed (does result in shorter
flying times)
GET READY TO FLY...
▪ Make sure both the Transmitter and Helicopter are fully charged.
▪ Turn the power button to "ON" on the app, and you will see the
Blue LED on the transmitter will come on fully (if the blue LED
flashes, the transmitter needs charging).
▪ Select a free BAND (A/B/C) to fly on. The helicopter will
automatically adjust to the selected band. 3 Helicopters can be
flow by different users at the same time.
▪ Turn the switch on the helicopter to "ON" and place it on a flat
surface away from objects. It will then take a few seconds for the
helicopter to match itself to the transmitter.
▪ When the small red LED on the helicopter stops flashing (or main
lights come on) then you are ready to fly.
