Control Functions During Flights - Heli-Professional REVOLUTION 500E Manual

This chapter explains the basic control/steering functions of the helicopter based on Mode 2.
In general: Steering one of the four control functions (e.g. pitch/throttle) does always lead to a change in the overall
flight position of the model. This means that you always have to steer the other three control functions accordingly
to keep the helicopter in the desired flight position.
Important: Steering the rudder/tail rotor pitch function changes the position of the tail boom, but in fact, you al-
ways steer the nose of the model (see rudder/tail rotor pitch function for more details).
Pitch/Throttle Function
If you move the pitch/throttle stick forwards, the main rotor blade angle will change and the helicopter will climb. If
you move the pitch/throttle stick backwards, the main rotor blade angle will change and the helicopter will descend.
Rudder/Tail Rotor Pitch Function
If you move the rudder/tail rotor pitch stick to the left, the tail blade angle will change and the helicopter will turn
around its vertical axis. Consequently, the nose of the helicopter will turn to the left in the direction of flight.
