13. Information for first take-off
a) General handling
A quadrotor helipcopter is essentially equipped with the handling of a normal helicopter. The differences, however, are
in the detail. For helicopters, the torque balance is stabilised through special gyros (in the yaw function). For this, there
are two different systems: "Normal gyros" or gyros with the "heading lock" function.
Normal gyros stabilise (cushion) the tail rotor against tipping motions which are caused by the pilots (driving speed
and/or pitch changes and/or external influences (e.g. side wind). A gyro with "heading lock" function has a "holding
action" against these tipping motions. Both systems respond after a control command – e.g. "yaw to the left" and
subsequent neutral positioning with the immediate stopping of the tipping motion.
In your quadrotor helicopter – unlike standard helicopters – there are three gyros installed on the yaw, pitch and roll
functions. The installed gyros are – in comparison with standard gyros – neither to be described as "normal gyros" or
with "heading lock" function.
The gyros in the quadrotor helicopter are linked together so that after the end of a control command the quadrotor
helicopter always attempts to reach neutral position (hovering flight). How well this works depends of course on the
space available, the flight speed and/or the prevailing flight condition, the trim values of the quadrotor helicopter and
external flight conditions e.g. wind.
b) Starting the motor
Important!
Before switching the transmitter on, please set the throttle stick to "motor off" and all trim levers of the pilot
stick to zero (mid trimming). Otherwise, the quadrotor helicopter may not recognise the transmitter after
the battery is connected.
- After the flight battery is connected, the LEDs indicate "ready to fly".
- GAS to zero, YAW to full scale to the left, PITCH and ROLL to neutral (see also picture 12)
- Rotors start to turn one after the other and start idle speed
- Red LED lights permanently and the green LED flashes ("motors on")
- Increase GAS slowly for lift-off (hovering flight)
c) Cutting the motor
The running motors can be turned off as follows:
- GAS to zero, YAW to full scale to the right, PITCH and ROLL to neutral
- Stop rotors
- Red LED is off, green LED is permanently lit ("ready to fly")
