Aileron & Elevator Setup - (continued from previous page) Turn the transmitter on. Insert your hand and hold the landing gear firmly while
making the battery connection. While looking at the swashplate, move the aileron stick to the right and verify that the swashplate tilts to the
right, when viewing the helicopter from the rear. Again, move the elevator stick forward and verify that the swashplate tilts forward. If any
channel is backwards, simply toggle the reversing switch on the transmitter.
14.) Hummingbird Trimming
Blade Tracking and Lift Adjustment - If the transmitter throttle stick is at 1/2 power and the helicopter will not lift off the
ground, bend or twist the main blades slightly to increase the angle of attack of the blades and adjust both blades equally. This
will increase the blade pitch.
Twist the blade tip upwards.
Carefully!
It is possible that after twisting or bending the blades that the blades may go out of track. When viewed from the side, there
appears to be two blades. To correct this decrease the pitch on blade A and increase the pitch on blade B until only one blade
can be seen. Attaching a small piece of colored tape to the tip of one blade will make this easier.
Control Movement - All trimming of the Hummingbird should be done one click or detent of the subtrims at a time until it will rise
without moving left, right, forward or backward at a location without wind. Some tail rotation is normal at lift off until it is
hovering. Start by lifting the Hummingbird 3-6 inches at a time to practice lift off and landing.
