Landing - XciteRC PARACOPTER RTF Manual

Landing

If the wind gets stronger during the fl ight unexpectedly (strong breeze, over 30 km/h) and you risk losing
control of the model, release the throttle stick immediately and fl y close right turns to lose height quickly. Land
the model and wait until the wind calms down!
Landing
With the recommended fl ight battery the PARACOPTER – depending on the wind con-
ditions – has a fl ight time of about 8 - 10 minutes. If the battery gets weak immediately
begin with the landing. WARNING: if the battery is too weak, the PARACOPTER can no
longer be controlled – crash hazard!
1. Start with the preparation for landing preferably in an altitude between 20 - 30 m.
When possible, fl y against the wind for a better descent control.
2. Now fl y in direction of the landing spot and begin to sink slowly.
3. No later than 10 meters altitude the PARACOPTER must be rotated against
the wind, the landing approach starts now. Control the sink angle with the
throttle position.
4. In order to reduce the speed as best as possible and to allow a soft
landing, land against the wind direction.
Turn off the model and then the transmitter. Disconnect the fl ight batte-
ry and remove it from the model.
WARNING: the motor of the PARACOPTER may get very hot
during operation. Allow to cool down minimum 20 minutes before
the next start to avoid damage. Fire hazard!
