• Once you have the Blade mCX properly trimmed and maintain a stable
low-level hover, practice using the rudder, elevator and aileron controls to
get a feel for how the helicopter responds to control inputs. Remember to
keep the control inputs as minimal as possible to prevent over-controlling
the helicopter, especially when in hover.
After becoming comfortable with hovering the Blade mCX at low levels of
altitude just a few inches off the ground, you can transition to hovering
and flying the helicopter at higher altitudes of approximately three to four
feet. At these higher altitudes you will be able to get a feel for the flight
characteristics of the Blade mCX when it is flying out of “ground effect.”
• If at any time during flight you feel like the helicopter is drifting out of
control, simply release all of the controls except for throttle. You will need
to use the throttle to maintain altitude, but due to the inherent stability
of the coaxial, counter-rotating blade design, the Blade mCX will simply
return to a stable hover on its own if space allows.
• Don’t be afraid to set the helicopter down on the ground quickly by
lowering the throttle when approaching walls or other obstacles to help
prevent main rotor blade strikes.
• IN THE UNFORTUNATE EVENT OF A CRASH OR ROTOR BLADE
STRIKE, NO MATTER HOW MINOR OR MAJOR, YOU MUST LOWER
THE THROTTLE STICK AND TRIM TO THEIR LOWEST POSSIBLE
POSITIONS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO
THE ESCS OF THE 5-IN-1 UNIT.
Failure to lower the throttle stick and trim to the lowest possible positions
in the event of a crash could result in damage to the ESCs in the 5-in-1 unit,
which may require replacement of the 5-in-1 unit.
Note: Crash damage is not covered under warranty.
• Once you have gained experience and confidence in hovering the Blade
mCX, you can attempt more advanced maneuvers including:
Forward Flight
Skidding Takeoffs
Backward Flight
Skidding Landings
Pirouettes
Spot Landings
