Problem
Trim change when flight mode is switched

Troubleshooting Guide

Problem
Aircraft does not operate
Aircraft keeps turning in one direction
Aircraft is difficult to control
Aircraft nose rises steeply at half
throttle
Aircraft will not climb
Aircraft is difficult to launch in the
wind
Flight time is too short
Aircraft vibrates
Rudder, ailerons or elevator do not
move freely
Aircraft will not Bind
(during binding) to transmitter
Aircraft will not connect
(after binding) to transmitter
After being properly adjusted, aileron
and/or rudder are not in neutral
position when battery is plugged in
Possible Cause
Trim is not at neutral
Sub-Trim is not at neutral
Possible Cause
No link between the transmitter and receiver
Transmitter AA batteries are depleted or installed
incorrectly as indicated by a dim or unlit LED on the
transmitter or the low battery alarm
No electrical connection
Flight battery is not charged
Crash has damaged the radio inside the fuselage
Rudder or rudder trim is not adjusted correctly
Aileron or aileron trim is not adjusted correctly
Wing or tail is damaged
Damaged Rotor
Center of gravity is behind the recommended location
Wind is too gusty or strong
Elevator is trimmed 'up' too much
Battery is not installed in the correct position.
Battery is not fully charged
Elevator may be trimmed 'down'
Rotor damaged
Launching the aircraft down wind or into a cross wind
Battery is not fully charged
Flying at full throttle for the entire flight
Wind speed too fast for safe flight
Rotor damaged
Rotor, spinner or motor damaged
Damaged or blocked push rods or hinges
Transmitter is too near aircraft during binding process
Aircraft or transmitter is too near a large metal object,
wireless source or another transmitter
Flight battery/transmitter battery charge is too low
Transmitter is too near aircraft during connecting process
Aircraft or transmitter is too near a large metal object,
wireless source or another transmitter
Aircraft battery/Transmitter battery charge is too low
Transmitter may have been bound to a different model
(using different DSM Protocol)
Model was moved during initial power on
Solution
If you need to adjust the trim more than 8 clicks, return the trim to
neutral and manually adjust the clevis to center the trim
Do not use Sub-Trim. Adjust the servo arm or the clevis
Solution
Re-Bind the system following directions in this manual
Check polarity installation or replace with fresh AA batteries
Push connectors together until they are secure
Fully charge the battery
Replace the fuselage or receiver
Adjust stick trims, then land and manually adjust aileron and/or
rudder linkages so no transmitter trim is required
Adjust stick trims or manually adjust aileron positions
Replace damaged part
Land immediately and replace damaged Rotor
Shift battery forward, do not fly until correct Center of Gravity
location is achieved
Postpone flying until the wind calms down
If trim must be adjusted more than 4 clicks when pushing the
trim button, adjust push rod length
Move forward approximately 1/2"
Fully charge battery before flying
Adjust elevator trim 'up'
Land immediately, replace Rotor
Always launch the aircraft directly into the wind
Recharge battery
Fly at just above half throttle to increase flying time
Fly on a calmer day
Replace Rotor
Tighten or replace parts
Repair damage or blockage
Move powered transmitter a few feet from aircraft, disconnect
and reconnect battery to aircraft
Move the aircraft and transmitter to another location and
attempt binding again
Replace/recharge batteries
Move powered transmitter a few feet from aircraft, disconnect
and reconnect battery to aircraft
Move the aircraft and transmitter to another location and
attempt connecting again
Replace/recharge batteries
Bind aircraft to transmitter
Unplug flight battery and reconnect, keeping model immobile
for at least 5 seconds
