Mini Twister Scale Instruction Manual

TRIMMING THE HELICOPTER (MODE 2)

Gently apply throttle until the rotor blades start to turn, keep advancing the throttle 

until the helicopter leaves the ground and begins to hover.

The model should be stable and centred in the hover to produce the best flight 

performance.  If you find that your model has a tendency to drift out of the hover then 

you can use the trim buttons detailed on page 5 to correct it.

THROTTLE TRIM - LEFT STICK
Decreasing throttle power

If the rotor blades on the model are rotating when you plug 

in the battery and no throttle is applied decrease the throttle 

trim by pressing the lower trim button on the throttle stick

Increasing throttle power

If the rotor blades do not start to rotate when you raise the 

throttle stick increase the throttle trim by pressing the upper 

trim button on the throttle stick.

YAW TRIM - LEFT STICK
The model rotates when no yaw control is applied

If the model rotates to the left or the right press the opposite 

yaw trim button to correct it, e.g., If the model rotates left 

press the right trim button until the model is centred.

FORE/AFT CYCLIC TRIM - RIGHT STICK
The model drifts forwards (fore) or backwards (aft) when 

the fore/aft cyclic stick is centred

If the model drifts forwards or backwards press the opposite 

trim button to correct it, e.g., if the model drifts forwards 

apply backwards (aft) trim until the model is centred.

LEFT/RIGHT CYCLIC TRIM - RIGHT STICK
The model rolls/drifts to the side when left/right cyclic 

stick is centred

If the model rolls to the left or right press the opposite trim 

button to correct it, e.g., if the model drifts to the left apply 

right cyclic trim until the model is centred.

Once you have trimmed your model reduce throttle to land, 

disconnect the battery and read through the next section on 

how to use the other controls on the helicopter.
