Model slips (drifts) or tilts to the right:
GB
• Reduce the speed and push the trim slider of the roll-
function of the right remote control lever stepwise to the left.
• Push the pitch-lever forward again and check whether the
correction was sufficient, if necessary shift the trim further to
the left.
• Repeat the process until the helicopter no longer shows a
tendency to drift to the right.
Model slips (drifts) forward:
• Reduce the speed and push the trim slider of the nick
function on the right remote control lever stepwise
backwards.
• Push the pitch lever forward again and check whether this
was sufficient for correction, if necessary shift the trim
further to the left.
• Repeat the process until the helicopter no longer shows a
tendency to drift forwards.
Hover flight
Hover flight means maintaining the helicopter in a stable
position in the air. Hover flight is only possible with a helicopter
and must be thoroughly practiced as a fundamental flight
formation.
Acquaint yourself with the control functions of your remote
control transmitter so that this procedure gets you're your
"flesh and blood".
• Then set the helicopter about 2 m in front of you on the
ground, with the tail facing you.
• Leave the helicopter on the ground and first deliberately
move it slightly sidewise, forwards and backwards.
• When you have mastered control on the ground, give
somewhat more lift and permit it to hover above the ground,
without allowing the tip of the fuselage to turn or the
helicopter to drift away.
• The best procedure is to mark a position on the ground from
which you start the model.
Attempt to hold the helicopter above this position and also
to land again on this position.
• Do not move the control lever too jerkily, because other-
wise especially the touchdown can be very hard. Develop a
feeling for the controls by repeatedly lifting off, floating and
landing again.
