4ENFirst Flight Preparation• Remove and inspect contents• Begin charging the fl ight battery (not included)• Install the electronics (ARF version)• Confi gure the fl ight controller (ARF version)• Install the fl ight battery in the helicopter(once it has been fully charged)• Program your computer transmitter• Bind your transmitter• Familiarize yourself with the controls• Find a suitable area for fl yingFlying Checklist ❏Always turn the transmitter on fi rst ❏Plug the fl ight battery into the lead from the ESC ❏Allow the ESC to initialize and arm properly ❏ Verify control directions and gyro compensations are correct ❏Fly the model ❏Land the model ❏Unplug the fl ight battery from the ESC ❏Always turn the transmitter off lastLow Voltage Cuto  (LVC)The ESC will continuously lower power to the motor until complete shutdown when the battery reaches 12V under load. This helps prevent over-discharge of the Li-Po battery. Land immediately when the ESC activates LVC. Continuing to fl y after LVC can damage the battery, cause a crash or both. Crash damage and battery damaged due to over-discharge are not covered under warranty.Repeatedly fl ying the helicopter until LVC activates will damage the helicopter battery. Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the aircraft after use to prevent trickle discharge. During storage, make sure the battery charge does not fall below 3V per cell.The included electronic speed controller (ESC) utilizes a head speed governor to maintain a constant head speed during fl ight. The governor will work to maintain a constant head speed throughout maneuvers and the discharge cycle of the fl ight battery.The throttle position determines the requested head speed, and although throttle curves are still used, they will be a constant value; all positions of the curve are set to the same value. The lowest position of the normal fl ight mode throttle curve must be set to 0 to ensure the motor can be disabled.The default throttle curve settings listed in the transmitter setup tables should be acceptable to most pilots and we recommend starting with these values. If you feel an adjustment is necessary after a few fl ights, adjust the throttle percentage for the desired fl ight mode. We recommend making small changes of 5% to fi nd your preferred head speed.Remember the throttle position on the transmitter is simply requesting a specifi c head speed and this is not related to the actual motor power percentage.Electronic Speed Controller Governor Operation
5ENTransmitter Setup (Bind-N-Fly® Basic)Program your transmitter before attempting to bind or fl y the helicopter. Always start by creating a new model in the transmitter to ensure no existing settings are inadvertently used. Transmitter programming values are shown below for the Spektrum™ Transmitters.

7EN1. Lower the throttle.2. Power on the transmitter.3. Center all trims.4. To allow the ESC to arm and to keep rotors from initiat-ing at startup, turn on throttle hold and normal fl ight mode before connecting the fl ight battery.5. Attach hook material to the helicopter frame and loop material to the battery.6. Install the fl ight battery on the helicopter frame. Secure the fl ight battery with a hook and loop strap. Connect the battery cable to the ESC.CAUTION: Make sure the fl ight battery, wire and connector does not come into contact with the motor. Failure to do so will cause the motor, ESC and battery to overheat, resulting in a crash causing property damage and injury.7. Do not move the helicopter until the AR636A initializes. The swashplate will center, indicating that the unit is ready. The AR636A status LED will illuminate once initialization has been completed8. The helicopter motor will emit 5 ascending tones, indicating the ESC is armed.CAUTION: Always disconnect the Li-Po battery from the ESC power lead when not fl ying to avoid over-discharging the battery. Batteries discharged to a voltage lower than the lowest approved voltage may become damaged, resulting in loss of performance and potential fi re when batteries are charged.Binding Procedure1. Program your transmitter using the Transmitter Setup found in this manual.2. Insert the bind plug in the BND/DAT port on the receiver.3. Connect the fl ight battery to the ESC. The orange LED on the AR636 will begin fl ashing rapidly to indicate bind mode.4. Move the throttle stick to the low throttle position in normal mode.5. Follow the procedures of your specifi c transmitter to enter Bind Mode. The system will connect within a few seconds. Once connected, the orange LED will turn off and the AR636A will start the initialization process.6. When the initialization process is complete, the Status LED light will come on solid orange.7. Disconnect the fl ight battery and remove the bind plug from the AR636A. Store the bind plug in a convenient place.Transmitter and Receiver Binding (Bind-N-Fly® Basic)Binding is the process of programming the receiver to recognize the GUID (Globally Unique Identifi er) code of a single specifi c transmitter. You need to ‘bind’ your chosen Spektrum™ DSM2/DSMX technology equipped aircraft transmitter to the receiver for proper operation. WARNING: You must move the throttle to the LOW/OFF position during binding. Failure to do so may cause the rotor blades to spin and the helicopter to lift during the AR636A initialization, which could result in damage to property and injury.NOTICE: Remove the bind plug to prevent the system from entering bind mode the next time the power is turned on.CAUTION: When using a Futaba® transmitter with a Spektrum™ DSM2® module, you must reverse the throttle channelIf you encounter problems, obey binding instructions and refer to transmitter troubleshooting guide for other instructions. If needed, contact the appropriate Horizon Product Support offi ce.Installing the Flight Battery
8ENThrottle HoldControl TestsThrottle hold is used to prevent the motor from powering on inadvertently. For safety, turn throttle hold ON any time you need to touch the helicopter or check the direction controls.Throttle hold is also used to turn off the motor quickly if the helicopter is out of control, in danger of crashing, or both. The blades will continue to spin briefl y when throttle hold is activated. Pitch and direction control is still maintained.CAUTION: You must complete the Tail Rotor and Cyclic tests prior to every fl ight. Failure to complete the tests and ensuring the sensor corrects in the proper direction can cause the helicopter to crash, resulting in property damage and injury. Tail Rotor 1. Power on the transmitter.2. Turn TH HOLD ON and put transmitter in normal mode. 3. Connect the fl ight battery to the ESC.NOTICE: Do not allow the helicopter to move until the Status LED is solid orange. The AR636A will not operate correctly if the helicopter moves before the Status LED is solid orange.4. Move the rudder stick to the right. The pitch slider on the tail shaft should move toward the tail case. If the pitch slider moves in the oppo-site direction, ensure the rudder channel reverse setting within the transmitter is set to normal.5. Release the rudder control. Manually turn the helicopter nose to the left. The fl ight controller should compensate by moving the tail slider towards the tail case.Cyclic and Collective Control Test Ensure the throttle hold is ON when performing the direction control tests. Test the controls prior to each fl ight to ensure the servos, linkages and parts operate correctly. If the controls do not react as shown in the illustrations below, confi rm the transmitter is programmed correctly before continuing on to the Motor test.ElevatorAileron Rear ViewLeft Side View Left Side ViewRear ViewElevator down Elevator upAileron left Aileron rightCyclicWhen using a fl ybarless fl ight controller, you are controlling rotational rates while the AR636A controls the servos. You are not directly controlling the servos with the transmitter.It is normal for the swashplate to slowly move back to its original position after a stick input and for the servos to not move at the same speed as your control sticks.1. Tilt the helicopter forward. The swashplate musttilt backward.2. Roll the helicopter left. The swashplate must roll right.
9ENMotor TestPlace the helicopter outdoors on a clean, fl at and level surface (concrete or asphalt) free of obstructions. Always stay clear of moving rotor blades. 1. Before you continue, confi rm that TH HOLD is ON. The motor will emit 5 ascending tones after the helicopter’s ESC has armed properly.  WARNING: The motor will spin when the throttle is increased while TH HOLD is OFF.WARNING: Stay at least 30 feet (10 meters) away from the helicopter when the motor is running. Do not attempt to fl y the helicopter at this time.2. Ensure the throttle is lowered completely. Confi rm the transmitter is still set to normal fl ight mode. Turn throttle hold OFF to enable throttle control. Slowly increase the throttle until the blades begin to spin. The main blades spin clockwise when viewing the helicopter from the top. The tail rotor blades spin counterclockwise when viewing the helicopter from the right-hand side.Collective Pitch Front View Front ViewCollective pitch up Collective pitch downPre-Flight Checklist ❏Check all screws and ensure that they are tight ❏Check belt tension and ensure that it is not too tight or too loose ❏Check main and tail blades to ensure they are not damaged ❏Check all links and make sure they move freely but do not pop off easily ❏Check that the transmitter and fl ight batteries are fully charged ❏Check all wires to ensure that they are not cut, pinched, or chaffed and are properly secured ❏Check all wire connections ❏Check gears and make sure no teeth are missing ❏Make sure fl ight battery is properly secured ❏Make sure the receiver is properly secured ❏Perform a complete control test ❏Verify the fl ight controller is correcting in the proper directions ❏Check that servos are functioning properlyConsult local laws and ordinances before choosing a location to fl y your aircraft.Select a large, open area away from people and objects. Your fi rst fl ights should be outdoors in low-wind conditions. Always stay at least 30 feet (10 meters) away from the helicopter when it is fl ying.The Blade Fusion 270 is intended to be fl own outdoors by experienced pilotsPanic RecoveryIf you get into distress while fl ying in any mode, push and hold the Panic Switch and move the control sticks to their neutral position. SAFE® technology will immediately return the aircraft to an upright level attitude, if the aircraft is at a suffi cient height with no obstacles in its path. Return the collective stick to 50% and release the Panic Switch to turn off Panic Recovery and return to the current fl ight mode.NOTICE: Before releasing the panic switch, make sure the collective stick has been returned to the 50% position. Once the panic switch has been released, full negative collective becomes available, which could cause the helicopter to descend rapidly.• This mode is intended to provide the pilot with the confi dence to continue to improve their fl ight skills.• Move the collective stick to 50% and return all other transmitter controls to neutral for the quickest recovery.• When panic is activated and once the model has reached a level upright attitude, the negative collective is reduced to prevent the user from pushing the model into the ground.TakeoffDeliberately increase throttle and establish a hoverat least 24” (0.6 meter) high, outside of ground effect.CAUTION: Making large inputs to the roll or pitch controls while the helicopter is on the ground may result in a crash.FlyingThe helicopter lifts off the ground when the rotor head reaches a suitable speed. Establish a low-level hover to verify proper operation of your helicopter.First fl ights should be performed in normal mode and low cyclic and rudder dual rates until you are familiar with the fl ying manner of the Blade Fusion 270. CAUTION: Always fl y the helicopter with your back to the sun and the wind to prevent loss of fl ight control.Flying the Blade Fusion 270
10ENLandingEstablish a low level hover. Deliberately lower the throttle until the helicopter lands.  When the helicopter is in stunt mode:• The rotor head speed is constant.• The main rotor will increase negative pitch as thethrottle/collective stick is moved from the middle stick position to the low stick position. Negative pitch allows the helicopter to fl y upside down and perform aerobatics.Change between stunt and idle up modes in a hover with the throttle near the hovering stick position.WARNING: Do not use wooden main blades with the Blade Fusion 270 or injury and/or property damage could occur. Only use Blade Fusion 270 replacement carbon fi ber main blades.Gyro Gain Adjustment• If the tail wags or oscillates, lower the gain on the gyro.In the transmitter gyro menu, decrease the gyro gain values a small amount at a time until the helicopter is stable within a particular fl ight mode.• If the tail is drifting while hovering, increase the gain on the gyro.In the transmitter gyro menu, increase the gyro gainvalues a small amount at a time until the tail starts to wag/oscillate. Afterwards, reduce the gain until the tail stops wagging/oscillating within a particular fl ight mode.Tail Belt Tension Belt tension that is too tight results in loss of power and causes the belt to wear more quickly. Tension that is too loose can cause belt damage and loss of tail rotor control in fl ight.To check for proper belt tension:1.  View the tail rotor drive belt through the opening at the back of the main frame.2.  Use a hex wrench or standard screwdriver to compress the belt through the opening.3.  Apply light pressure on the belt, compressing the belt toward the left side of the tail boom.4.  The belt tension is correct if the compressed side of the belt reaches approximately halfway to the opposite side of the belt.a. If the compressed side of the belt reaches farther than halfway to the other side of the belt, the tension is too loose.b. If the compressed side of the belt does not reach halfway to the other side of the belt, the tension is too tight.To adjust belt tension:1.  Loosen the two horizontal stabilizer screws.2.  Loosen the 2 screws at the back of the main frame.3.  Slide the boom forward or aft to adjust the belt tension.4.  When the belt tension is properly adjusted, tighten the 2 screws at the back of the frame.5.  Tighten the horizontal stabilizer screws.Post-Flight Inspections and MaintenanceBall LinksMake sure the plastic ball link holds the control ball, but is not tight (binding) on the ball. When a link is too loose on the ball, it can separate from the ball during fl ight and cause a crash. Replace worn ball links before they fail.Cleaning  Make sure the battery is not connected before cleaning. Remove dust and debris with a soft brushor a dry lint free cloth. Bearings Replace bearings when they become damaged.Wiring Make sure wiring does not block moving parts. Replace damaged wiring and loose connectors.Fasteners Make sure there are no loose screws, other fasteners or connectors. Do not over tighten metal screws in plastic parts. Tighten screw so parts are mated together, then turn screw only 1/8th of a turn more.Rotors Make sure there is no damage to rotor blades and other parts which move at high speed. Damageto these parts includes cracks, burrs, chips or scratches. Replace damaged parts before fl ying. Flight Controller Make sure the AR636A is securely attached to the frame. Replace the double-sided tape when necessary. The helicopter will crash if the AR636A separates from the helicopter frame.
11 ENThe Fusion 270 default settings are appropriate for most users. We recommend fl ying with the default parameters before making any adjustments. WARNING: Always disconnect the motor wires from the ESC before performing the following steps.After completing the adjustments, reconnect the motor wires to the ESC before attempting to fl y the model.Advanced Settings (AR636A only)Gain Parameters1.  Cyclic P Gain Adjustment (Default 100%)Higher gain will result in greater stability. Setting the gain too high may result in random twitches if your model has an excessive level of vibration. High frequency oscillations may also occur if the gain is set too high.Lower gain will result in less stability. Too low of a value may result in a less stable model particularly outdoors in winds.If you are located at a higher altitude or in a warmer climate, higher gains may be benefi cial—the opposite is true for lower altitude or colder climates.2.  Cyclic I Gain Adjustment (Default 100%)Higher gain will result in the model remaining still, but may cause low frequency oscillations if increased too far.Lower gain will result in the model drifting slowly.If you are located at a higher altitude or in a warmer climate, higher gains may be benefi cial—the opposite is true for lower altitude or colder climates.3.  Cyclic D Gain Adjustment (Default 100%)Higher gain will improve the response rate of your inputs. If the gain is raised too much, high frequency oscillations may occur.Lower gain will slow down the response to inputs.4.  Cyclic Response (Default 100%)Higher cyclic response will result in a more aggressive cyclic response.Lower cyclic response will result in a less aggressive cyclic response.5.  Tailrotor P Gain Adjustment (Default 100%)Higher gain will result in greater stability. Setting the gain too high may result in random twitches if your model has an excessive level of vibration. High frequency oscillations may also occur if the gain is set too high.Lower gain may result in a decrease in stability. Too low of a value may result in a less stable model particularly outdoors in winds.If you are located at a higher altitude or in a warmer climate, higher gains may be benefi cial—the opposite is true for lower altitude or colder climates.6.  Tailrotor I Gain Adjustment (Default 100%)Higher gain results in the tail remaining still. If the gain is raised too far, low speed oscillations may occur.Lower gain will result in the tail drifting in fl ight over time.If you are located at a higher altitude or in a warmer climate, higher gains may be benefi cial—the opposite is true for lower altitude or colder climates.7.  Tailrotor D Gain Adjustment (Default 100%)Higher gain will improve the response rate to your inputs. If raised too far, high frequency oscillations may occur.Lower gain will slow down the response to inputs, but will not have an effect on stability.Telemetry Based Text Generator for Advanced SettingsAdvanced parameters may be easily read in text form when using a Spektrum™ telemetry based transmitter. Transmitters may require a fi rmware update to access this function. To register and update Spektrum™ transmitters, visit www.spektrumrc.com.Turning On Text Gen Access the Telemetry menu, select one of the “Empty” Telemetry slots and scroll to select “Text Gen.” Set the display option to active (Act). Once the Text Gen message feature has been enabled, the transmitter will display text based menus on the telemetry screens for adjusting PID values and servo center points. The helicopter must be bound and initialized for the Text Gen screen to function; scroll from the home screen past the telemetry screen(s) to access the Text Gen screen. Using Text GenThe available features and stick inputs used to manipulate the menus are the same as the methods outlined in the following section, but using the text based programming is more intuitive. Refer to the transmitter manual for details on how to utilize telemetry menus.
12ENOnce you have entered Gain Adjustment Mode, you can move the cyclic stick forward and backward to select the gain parameter you would like to adjust. Moving the stick backward will select the next parameter. Moving the stick forward will select the previous parameter.The selected gain parameter is indicated on the Flight Log screen and by the lean of the swashplate on the roll axis.The current gain value for the selected parameter is indicated on the Flight Log screen and by the angle of the swashplate (forward or backward) as shown in the table at the right.Move the cyclic stick left or right to adjust the gain value. Moving the stick right will increase the gain value. Moving the stick left will decrease the gain value.It is always best to adjust one gain at a time. Make small adjustments(5% or less) and test fl y the model to evaluate the adjustments that were made.If you would like to reset the current gain value to the default value of 100%, move and hold the rudder stickfull right for 1 second. The swash will level on the pitch axis, indicating a 100% gain setting.Saving the Gain AdjustmentsAll Spektrum™ Transmitters:1. Lower the throttle stick to the lowest position and release the sticks. 2. Activate the panic recovery function until the swash servos move. 3. Deactivate the panic recovery function to save the gain adjustments. 4. Reconnect the main drive motor to the ESC. Your model is now ready for fl ight.Entering Gain Adjustment Mode (AR636A only)Adjusting the Gain ValuesIf you are using a Spektrum™ telemetry-enabled transmitter, the gain adjustments can be viewed on the Flight Log screen.

13 ENServo Adjustment (AR636A only)Your Blade Fusion 270 helicopter was setup at the factory and test fl own. The servo adjustment steps are usually only necessary in special circumstances, such as after a crash or if a servo or linkage is replaced.WARNING: To ensure your safety, always disconnect the motor wires from the ESC before performing the following steps. After you have completed the adjustments, reconnect the motor wires to the ESC before attempting to fl y the model.All Spektrum™ Transmitters:1.  Lower the throttle stick to the lowest position.2.  Power ON the transmitter.3.  Install the fl ight battery on the helicopter frame, securing it with the hook and loop strap.4.  Connect the battery connector to the ESC.5.  Place the helicopter on a fl at surface and leave it still until the orange receiver LED glows solid, indicating initialization is complete.6.  Hold the left stick to the bottom left corner and the right stick to the bottom right corner as shown.7.  Activate the panic recovery function until the swash servos move.8.  Release the sticks and deactivate the panic recovery function. The model is now in Servo Adjustment Mode.9.  Proceed to Adjusting the Servo Neutral Position to make any desired changes.Adjusting the Servo Neutral PositionWith the model in Servo Adjustment Mode, the control stick and gyro inputs are disabled and the servos are held in the neutral position. Check the position of the servo arms to see if they are perpendicular to the servos.•  If the arms are perpendicular to the servos, no adjustment is necessary. Exit Servo Adjustment Mode.•  If one or more servo arm is not perpendicular to the servos, continue the servo adjustment process.While watching the swashplate servos, apply backward cyclic and release. One of the servos will jump, indicating which servo is selected. Press backward cyclic and release until the servo that needs to be adjusted is selected.Once the servo you wish to adjust is selected, move the cyclic stick right or left to adjust the servo neutral position in the desired direction.If you would like to reset the current servo to the default neutral position, hold the rudder stick full right for 1second. The range of adjustment is limited. If you are unable to adjust the servo arm to be perpendicular to the servo, you must reset the servo to the default neutral position, remove the servo arm and place it back onto the servo as close to perpendicular as possible. You may then adjust the servo neutral position using the left/right cyclic stick.Swashplate LevelingBefore saving your adjustments and exiting servo adjustment mode, verify the swashplate is level and both main rotor blades are at 0 degrees.If they are not, make linkage adjustments as necessary.Saving the Servo AdjustmentsAll Spektrum™ Transmitters:1. Lower the throttle stick to the lowest position and release the sticks. 2. Activate Panic Recovery until the swash servos move. 3. Deactivate Panic Recovery to save the servo adjustments. 4. Reconnect the main drive motor to the ESC. Your model is now ready for fl ight.All of the settings are stored internally, so your adjustments will be maintained each time you initialize the model.
14ENTrim Flight (AR636A only)Entering Trim Flight Mode1.  Lower the throttle stick to the lowest position.2.  Center all trims. For the included Spektrum™ DXe transmitter (RTF only), the trims are centered when you hear a higher pitched beep while pressing the trim button. Move the trim in both directions until you hear the high-pitched beep.3.  Power ON the transmitter.4.  Install the fl ight battery in the helicopter.5.  Connect the battery connector to the ESC.6.  Place the helicopter on a fl at surface and leave it still until the motor beeps twice and the blue ESC LED glows solid, indicating initialization is complete.7.  Place the helicopter where you are going to take off.8.  Move and hold the left stick to the bottom left corner and the right stick to the top left corner as shown.9.  Activate Panic Recovery until theswashplate rotates around once.10. Release the sticks and deactivate panic recovery.11. The model is ready for the trim fl ight.Performing the Trim Flight1. Slowly increase the throttle to lift the model into a stationary hover. Make corrections as necessary to keep the model still. Evaluation does not begin until the throttle stick is over 50% and the sticks are centered. Making corrections will not affect the result but a longer fl ight may be necessary.2. Keep the model stationary in a hover for a total of 30 seconds. Sliding and slow movements are okay. The main goal is to keep the rotor disk level.3. Once you are satisfi ed with the trim fl ight, land the model.Exiting Trim Flight Mode1.  After landing, lower the throttle stick to the lowest position.2. Activate Panic Recovery for 2 seconds, or until the swashplate twitches, indicating the servo positions and attitude values have been recorded and trim fl ight mode has been exited.Flight TestAfter performing the trim fl ight, test-fl y the model to evaluate the leveling characteristics.•  The model should return to level fl ight consistently.•  During takeoff, the model should lift off with  minimal corrections.•  During a hover, the control stick should remain close to center. Small corrections are acceptable.If the model performs poorly or does not level properly after the trim fl ight, retry the entire trim fl ight procedure. If the problem persists, inspect the model for damaged components, a bent shaft or anything that may result in increased vibration. The trim fl ight may not record the correct values due to excessive vibration, fl ying in wind or the model not staying level. In these cases, shorter trim fl ights may be necessary. Try the 30-second, level trim fl ight without corrections mentioned above fi rst. If the leveling characteristics are not satisfactory, gradually shorten the trim fl ights, checking for improvements until the model performs as described.Perform this procedure if the model is not performing well or has been recently rebuilt from a crash.The trim fl ight procedure was performed during the factory test fl ight and only needs to be performed if you notice the model is not returning to level consistently or if the model does not remain still during stationary pirouettes. The trim fl ight is used to determine the optimal settings for SAFE® technology during fl ight.The trim fl ight must be performed in calm conditions.
15 ENIf the helicopter is experiencing drift issues after completing the trim fl ight procedure located at www.bladehelis.com, perform the following calibration. The calibration procedure may also be needed following crash repairs.To perform the calibration procedure below, the Spektrum™ AR636 receiver installed in the Blade Fusion 270 must have the most recent fi rmware. Receiver fi rmware updates and instructions are available under “PC Firmware Updates” at www.spektrumrc.com/technology/AS3X.aspx. The transmitter/receiver programming cable (SPMA3065) is required toupdate the receiver fi rmware.WARNING: Before beginning the calibration procedure, disconnect the main motor and tail motor leads to prevent accidental motor startup during calibration.To perform the calibration procedure:1.  Ensure the surface used for calibration is level.2.  Power on the transmitter and helicopter, allowing them to initialize.3.  Turn Throttle Hold ON.4.   Ensure the main motor and tail motor leads are disconnected. Set the fl ight mode switch to Intermediate Mode (FM1).5.  Using a bubble level as shown below, level the helicopter by placing a foam blade holder under the landing skid. Use additional items, as necessary, to build up under the landing skid until the tail boom is level.6.  Hold the left stick to the bottom right corner, the right stick to the upper left corner and activate the Panic Recovery function until the LED on the receiver fl ashes once.7.  Release both sticks and deactivate Panic Recovery.8.  The LED on the receiver will remain solid for 1-2minutes while the calibration takes place.Do not move the helicopter until the calibrationis completed. If the LED begins blinking rapidly, an error has occurred. Begin the calibration procedure again, starting with step 1.9.  After the calibration is successfully completed, the receiver LED will blink slowly (2 seconds on, 2seconds off).10. Power the helicopter off.11. Reconnect the main motor and tail motor wires.12. Perform the trim fl ight procedure as shown in the Advanced Settings Addendum available at www.bladehelis.com.13. During subsequent fl ights after the trim fl ight, the helicopter should return to within 5 degrees of level consistently.Bubble levelFoam blade holderCalibration Procedure (AR636A only)
